I think I'll miss this one this year
I think I know why it doesn't feel like Christmas.
Every year I have Thanksgiving at my cousin's house. On my way home, I listen to a CD of "Christmas Wrapping" by The Waitresses. And that launches the holiday season. I cannot listen to the song before Thanksgiving dinner; if it comes on the radio a day or a week before, I have to turn it off. Those are the rules.
Well I was in Jersey for Thanksgiving, so I didn't have the ceremonial launching of the holiday season. I have since heard the song on the radio, but it's too little too late.
Bah Humbug! No, that's too strong.
