And it snowed here last night. How rude! The trees still have leaves, fer god's sake. Back off, Xmas! But no, it's here and there's nothing we can do about it. They even moved Black Friday up this year so it seems like it's happening all the time. Xmas: it's unstoppable.
As a result, Christmas seems like a rude guest this year. Don't you agree? Or have I turned into one of those bah-humbug guys? Could be. I am getting older, after all.
What this early Xmas rush means, bottom line, is that you'd better pick up a copy of Xmas Carol today. Get going, kids! If you don't start reading right now, Xmas may hurtle past without you even noticing it. So get your very own copy of Xmas Carol and hold on tight. It'll put you in the right frame of mind for Xmas, guaranteed.
All kidding aside, the book is great fun. I promise you'll enjoy it (unless you're a religious nitwit or a raging anti-gay monster, in which case I have to wonder why you're visiting my blog).

You are a bah-humbug, which by the way was my door banner one Xmas Season. To Dick's delight.
I say, since we are all geared up, let's celebrate Xmas on Friday after Turkey Day. I mean all the good dishes will still be out, lot's of left overs to eat. And then we can be done with it all and just take the month of December off to relax and read a good book (Xmas Carol) and take an even longer cruise.
I think they stretch it out because most people slip into a coma or deep depression after Xmas. Your plan will start the coma earlier so I don't think it will fly. Nice try, but I think there would be mass suicides. And anyway, you're just cruise-mad.
Oh BAH HUMBUG!
