Halloween is officially over, which can mean only one thing: Christmas is in a couple of weeks.

Well, you would think so with every story already proudly displaying their Christmas decorations and goods. Did Thanksgiving already happen and I missed it? The way things have been going lately I wouldn’t be entirely surprised if that was the case, but I don’t think so.

Now don’t get me wrong, I’m all for Christmas. When the actual time comes I’ll probably write a blog detailing my love for the season and the incredibly kind nature of people during that oh-so-festive time of the year.

However, at the moment, I’m just not ready to have faux-pine needles and jingle bells shoved down my throat. It seems that in the last three days, I haven’t been able to enter a single store without a red and green barrage of the senses.
