I heard Christmas carols in a store today
I had to go to Brookstone to buy a Tempurpedic pillow, per my physical therapist's advice. It wasn't bad enough that I had to visit the horrid, soul-killing mall I worked in for almost a decade (Bellevue Square), but I had be tormented by Christmas music.

Just checked the calendar... it appears to be October 22. So, according to my calculations, that makes it exactly two months and three days before Christmas. What's next - carols on Labor Day weekend?

2. It's TOO early!!
I hate it when stores do that! :mad: I don't think anyone should play christmas carols before 25th November (and that's me being nice).

6. Christmas Carols
My husband and I were in Target last weekend to pick up a Halloween costume for our toddler and they had Christmas candles, and home decorations out for sale. What's worse - they already had that "picked over" look.

11. No, and nor shall I ever be
I'm like a younger, less-wrinkled Scrooge, I suppose.

10. Next time, ask where the Hanukkah stuff is, then get indignant
Hanukkah starts on Dec. 8 this year, so there are two fewer shopping weeks (gasp!).

12. Yeah, I should have asked, what, no Hanukkah carols?
I mean, it's almost Halloween! I can't believe you're not playing your Hanukkah music yet! :D
