I am reading this thread, yes. And I shall revel in my nonsense reasons for believing that November is too early.

My birthday falls close to Christmas, so it doesn't feel like Christmas until my birthday has been and gone. So yes, I feel that there is a too early for Christmas, but that's because I'm selfish. :3 People who don't have December birthdays will never understand this pain. :3

But, if I have to give people a time scale to be excited for Christmas... December is a good time to start getting decor up and about.
