In October, there is this awesome holiday completely centered around candy and pretending to be someone you're not. It's called Halloween.
In November there is a holiday where all the family members who hate each other vehemently come together at a central location to loath in silence while stuffing their face with calorie rich food.
NOT...
Ok, well not if you visit a store anywhere. There are two perfectly great holidays that are being skipped and pushed out the door by money hungry corporations that seem to think that by presenting people with EXPENSIVE gift ideas now, they will spend more money. However... we all know that at least 50% of the population wait until the week of Christmas to buy gifts... (I estimate that men=50% of the population, and that all men procrastinate. I assure you this statistic is in NO way scientific... just judgmental)
I feel that the population of impulse buyers, who happen to be roughly 50% of the population as well... (allowing that women are the other 50% of the population... and I promise this still isn't scientific) would buy TONS of Halloween and Thanksgiving stuff and junk to clutter the house for the next ten years if you would give them a chance!
I'm lobbying to BRING BACK GHOSTS AND TOMMY TURKEY!!!
Enjoy your fall holidays! (all of them!)
