It's two parts for me, but without the other, it's nothing. I love standing outside for just a moment when I get home noticing how dark it is, and then there is a wonderful cold crispness in the air. Yes, I know it's dark and cold in the other winter months, but something about the first few weeks of that 'smell' in the air makes me feel all jolly lol.

You took the words directly from my mind. I bet his so-called "dying" mother was really an 80-year old transsexual sexing up frustrated fraus online.

^^I HATE that damn song! And he has the nerve to try to buy the damn shoes with a couple of paper clips and pocket lint! He wrangles the guy behind him in line to actually pay for the footwear. Merry freakin Christmas! Mama's meeting Jesus tonight!

I wish Lake Erie would just dry up or something

But then how else would people contract extraneous arms and contract weird forms of leprosy?

I know Christmas is right around the corner when they start playing that stupid little song about the selfish beggar boy, buying his dying mother a pair of slippers when instead he could have been with her during her last hours on earth. Horrible song.

Yeah, we've had some houses with their lights up since Halloween weekend, but only 1 has actually had them on since then.

And in other news, my town still hasn't gotten their big snow plow fixed, because the fucking thing woke me up at 4:30 this morning. I hate that thing. I hate it so much.

When I get angry because, once again Thanksgiving, the greatest day in the entire year,

I don't get this. Why do people think Thanksgiving is better than Christmas? You get good food at both times but at Christmas, you get presents, cookies and treats, parties, and decorations. Plus, you get a week off of work between Xmas and New Years.

j/k bob. We're already getting catalogs, and the Xmas commercials on TV, and we've re-arranged the furniture preparatory for the tree.

Today is the first day of the rush to Christmas for me. I know this because I just saw a commercial for The Clapper. That shit only comes on during the Holiday shopping season. What makes it Christmas for you?
