    Default The suspense is killing me

    Wandering though Woolworth's on my way home from school I realised that all the Christmas stuff was out. And Halloween isn't even over yet!
    Advent calenders have been there for the last 2 weeks.
    So here's the topic; do you think all the Christmas mania is starting too early?
    I personally don't think it should start before December.

    Oh man, is it that time already? Gee, I thought it had only just been. That’s a little frightening, in my hereditary opinion!
    And yes, I think it’s starting too early.

    I know, that's why I find it annoying.

    It's not killing fast enough.

    I'm not really a holiday person. I didn't celebrate Christmas at all last year and I doubt that I will do it this year. I may get a gift for a few people this year but I wouldn't count on it.

    And no, I don't think it is coming out too early. A lot of people freak out over not being able to get the stuff in time so this is convenient for them all.

    Apparently, I'm sad.

    I duck my head and run through the preliminary boughs of holly.

    Woolworth's don't tell me what to do with my house, so I'm not gonna tell them what to do with their shop. But hey, if they think it'll make them more money, then good for them.
