Today’s Theme: Pre-Holiday Nausea
When you see holiday decorations, hear holiday music, and are bombarded with holiday promotions 2 months before the actually holiday takes place, does it fill you with merry excitement or does it make you want to barf a little? Rarely people are in-between on this one.
Bah! Humbug! I hate it. Makes me feel very scrooge-like when I see Christmas trees and hear Christmas music in stores in early October. And then theres the TV commercial bombarding that starts about the same time. It's too much. Makes me hate this season. It's supposed to be a time of sharing and giving (and peace and love and light and all that stuff) but it's become just a big gimme-gimme-fest.
Bring on New Years and let's get the commercial stuff over with.
