So what's with freakin Christmas crap now in the stores even before Hallowe'en? And the music playing incessantly. If I worked in a mall I'd be carving like Christmas turkeys well before American Thanksgiving. I'd outgrinch the grinch and stuff every hobgoblin and whiny child into a Santa sack and bash it against the wall. It ain't red for nothing ( Read more... )

bah humbug

It's only because of the oversaturation of christmas commercialism that makes me way grumpy cuz by the season I'm done with it. So I avoid the malls feverishly.

But hey, I'm already doing the shopping thang in trendy little out of the way places. \

And how's this for optimism. I've had lots of medical expenses this year: dental, massage, etc. But... it means I'll be able to deduct them from my taxes next year and probably have enough money to travel. Whee. Every dirty ole glass has a silver lining.

And I do believe in the inherent good of humankind...I think.

I love the pumpkins. I love the halloween. You are right too much Christmas not enough Halloween.

I saw someone with a tree and their window and thought, wow already. Some people love the holiday. I like it, I just don't love it enough to spend that much energy in it.

the day before thanksgiving at work...all I could think of was how much I hate this job and how demeaning and how soul sucking it it...feeds into crass commercialism and has NO redeeming value whatsoever.
I'm stocking doggie dental crap and there are people in the country starving.
wish a nice non-profit would hire me and utilize my skills instead.
