Aw, hell no

Spotted this morning above the entrance to the local mall:
What the hell is this? DAY AFTER THANKSGIVING, people. Day after Thanksgiving is the first acceptable day for outdoor Christmas displays. At least Target has the goddamn sense to shove the x-mas stuff into the back corner of the store — past the Halloween decorations I might add — until the last doorbell chime of the trick-or-treaters has been rung.
UNACCEPTABLE, local mall. Try as you might, I officially refuse to be jolly or merry or bright until midnight on November 23. So TAKE THAT.

We have officially 57 days until Christmas. FIFTY-SEVEN. What the heck is up with that mall?

Well, I am okay with it because I have almost completed my holiday shopping, so Christmas started a week ago for me.

This is one of the things I hate about our get it now society. By the time I’m actually ready to do something for a holiday, everything is sold out because they shove it down your throats months in advance. The valentine candy will be out the day after New Year. Two weeks before Halloween (which isn’t even here yet), I went to look for some decorations for “trunk or treat” at ds’s school and it was all on clearance, and practically gone. It’s so irritating.

That is so very wrong… the mall wreath AND the fact you have all your shopping done!

I just ignore it until the day after Thanksgiving. I just have special vision that can’t see those things, except….I did buy an ornament for Mike already. It was irresistable. It’s so fucking cute. I’ll have to take a picture of it and post it, it’s the cutest little thing. Other than that, Christmas season doesn’t begin until the day after Thanksgiving. This year it’ll be a little later than that, even.
