Oh No They Aren’t

It's bad enough that all the Christmas stuff is in the stores already and my dumb ass neighbor put his decorations up before Halloween again this year, I just saw a freaking holiday commercial for Walmart. A shopping center today had their holiday decorations up and turned on, no less. I am so sick of the Christmas season lasting for two whole months. It takes away the magic and enjoyment of the season. It's just like the freaking election season. You almost don't care who wins just as long as it is over.

Speaking of the election, I wasn't going to vote this year. It wasn't until about 10am this morning that I decided I'd actually go. I haven't missed a presidential election since I've been old enough to vote and I knew I'd regret the decision if I didn't add my two cents.

I'm also not quite sure how I'm going to deal with Thanksgiving this year, either. I'm scheduled to work my full 13 hour shift and so far we've had no word about closing. There is no way I can prepare a full meal after working all day, even if I had Marcus do the turkey like last year. This so sucks. I think we should just close and let us all make up the hours the following Sunday. Somehow, I don't think my management will go for it. I'm definitely putting it in the suggestion box, though. I suppose we had have a late dinner on Wednesday after Marcus gets off work. We'll see.
