TOO EARLY FOR CHRISTMAS!!!

[Quindiana Jones]

I start celebrating Christmas the moment anybody tells me it's too early to start celebrating Christmas.

Yesterday I took a Christmas tree around Guiyang, decorated it, and took touristy photos of it in all the local touristy places.

Used to put my tree up first weekend in December. Don't know what the go is this year now that I live outta home. I might boycott all the festive stuff, too much effort.

It's never too early for Christmas. My boss' father in law has had his tree up for a month or so already. Ours is going up over the weekend. I wanted it up earlier but family said no.

That's not true, Huxley. We have a whole week of fireworks first, and then we get hit with the Christmas typhoon.

I always forget about Asians Detonating Things Week!

My Granddaddy used to have a Christmas room in his old house. All of the decorations in that room were up, and functional, year-round. Which was awesome.

I don't care when people put up their stuff, as long as they don't harass me about it. We put ours up sometime between the day after Thanksgiving and Christmas Eve.

There is a place in Pennsylvania near water that has Christmas lights up all year round. A lot of people like to use their boats at night, so they just all have Christmas lights on the entire block. I love Christmas lights and I think it's never too early for them because they're so pretty. If it weren't such an energy waste and expensive, I'd have mine up all year round too. It is however too early for any sort of toys that make Christmas noises. I don't want to hear your Jingle Bell Rock or your Dubstep Christmas unless it's Christmas day and even then probably don't want to hear it. Can't wait to get the tree up though. I love the smell of a freshly cut tree.

People on facebook love to complain about anything.

Anytime after 1st November is perfectly fine to decorate your home for Christmas imho. Infact I love going to friends houses when they've already decorated, it gets me immediately in a festive mood and just generally makes everyone feel happier.

So, smurf the haters!

Also working retail during Christmas was honestly one of the best experiences of my life, from when we had a slow patch and were dancing to Mariah Carey in the stockroom - to people asking for gift advice for their Grandchildren etc. Sure people can get annoying after a while, and there were stock shortages - but the look of pure excitement on some faces when they found that perfect present for someone they loved, more than made up for all of that.

And the cheesey locking up on Christmas Eve and singing Christmas Carols all the way to the train station with co-workers, just because...

Those were good times.

Denmark and I are supposed to go Christmas decoration and card shopping today. I am SO EXCITED!

[Calliope]

I made 35 Christmas cards today. I'm probably going to make more though, as I hate leaving anyone out

I am not expecting too much about Christmas unfortunately. Every year I want it to snow and it doesn't. During the last few years it was always like it has snowed weeks before, days before or right after Christmas. Snow is really the only thing that I would need for Christmas - apart from the family.

[Calliope]

Conversely, it's supposed to snow tomorrow and I'm dreading it. I miss my Christmases on the beach

I think I gotta move to where you live then.

One of the friends that helped me put my stuff up put hers up a few days later so she was super-early as well, but no one really cared either way. Now most of the people I know have caught up to us.

I just gave my Firefox a Christmas theme
