Holidays: SLOW THE F DOWN WILL YA?

I was in a number of retail stores yesterday (Sears, Target, etc.) and I'm pissed.

No, it wasn't because I couldn't find the droids I was looking for (although, if you see them, please tell me). It was because I saw CHRISTMAS DECORATIONS!

Holy balls people... I haven't even bought my Halloween costume yet and already I'm getting punched in the face by little tin soldiers and can't see the masks through the (fake christmas) trees.

STOP IT, PLEASE!

When I was younger, I used to LOVE Thanksgiving because it meant that FINALLY it was almost Christmas and I could deal with that. At the end of the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade Santa Claus would come down in his sleigh and THAT, not walking into your local Target and seeing snowmen staring you in the face, meant that Christmas was on its way.

I can barely even get by month to month as it is and now you're reminding me that I have to drop tons of money on friends and family?

How about this, I start celebrating my birthday three months early and everyone has to deal with it? Piss off big box stores. I hate you.
