One of the many things I love about November is when the radio stations start playing Christmas music. To my great delight last Friday when I went home, the radio was playing the Christmas music that I love.
Now, I know a lot of people are gonna rise up with their torches and pitchforks to complain that Thanksgiving comes before Christmas. I know that. but, believe it or not Christmas music makes me excited for Thanksgiving.
Why? Because the songs remind me of being home, where either something from the oven or a candle warmed the whole house. It makes me think of home. It makes me feel like a little kid again. It brings me home. And who are you to make me feel that I'm not at home, comfortable and safe? Who are you to deny me my childhood memories?
Besides, we only "get" to listen to this music once a year, so I say we live it up and listen to it from the moment they start to the moment it ends.
Maybe why winter is so dreary after New Years is because there's no Christmas music to get us excited for anything.
