it's official. the holidays are here.

they're here. and you aren't gonna hear me complain' about it. the only thing you're gonna hear me complain' about is everybody complainin' about it.

look, what's the difference between stores putting out their Christmas stuff in october and you griping about stores putting out their Christmas stuff in october? both are a buzz kill. 

if you don't like stores putting out their Christmas stuff in october, don't go to stores. or, go to stores and don't look. it's not easy, but it can be done.......i've done it! i went to kohl's in september and they had their trim-a-tree shop up and runnin. complete with Christmas music. i shut my eyes, stuck my fingers in my ears, and moved on. saved me a lot of money!

just because something is everywhere doesn't mean you have to do it. remember what your mom said about that bridge and you jumping off it if all your friends jumped off it, too? applies just as much to Christmas. why you think that somebody celebrating something in october has to ruin your october is beyond me. with thinking like that, everyday would be ruined for you. because everyday somebody is doing something you don't like.

so, please. enough already about everybody rushing the holidays. they've rushed 'em before, they'll rush 'em again. and besides.....tell the truth.....come Christmas Day, do you really like your gorgeous new cashmere sweater any less because you saw it on a mannequin in october?
