Oh, what a joyful and fattening three months October, November, and December can be. Three food inclined holidays and lots of prep can be great, but certain aspects of this can be annoying. This includes the music. For everyone out there, here are eleven reactions to the music that thrills and annoys us.
1. Enjoying it
These people will celebrate the hell out of Thanksgiving, but they also blast Christmas music for all to hear. Or even sit in a room, sane, and happy.
2. Wait...
There will be fear and confusion awaiting those who forget that we always rush seasons for some insane reason. This is only a beginning reaction folks.
3. Dread
You can feel it coursing through your veins, but might not say it. It's here and playing everywhere. Almost as if we don't have any Thanksgiving songs...
4. Internal Screaming
Somehow the world survived Frozen, annoying kids shows, and Christmas music. But it is too early for this, way too early. How can no one see it?
5. "inserts headphones."
Hey, our phones have the capacity to play music. Headphones drown out a lot. Let's just be thankful.
6. Avoiding Radios
If your phone dies, well, it's back to classic avoiding. Not an easy task, but if there's a will, there will be some way.
7. Blocking the Hallmark Channel
Movies are great! I even love countdowns. But wait til December! Yeah, blocking this channel might save some headache if necessary.
8. Grinning and bearing it
Sometimes we just have to suck it up. And then mentally kill everyone else as they scream the lyrics. Eventually, they'll hate a holiday and you'll love that.
9. Ranting
What? Sometimes we need to get it out of our system. It helps. No one needs to be that pent up. And when something comes this early...
10. Distracting one's self
Busy work is the best work in these situations, and if it means you don't have to go out, well, okay.
11. Banning it from the home and car
Ah, executive parenting. Why hear someone singing the same chorus ten million times all November? That can wait for a month. Enjoy the Thanksgiving chaos first.
Have a wonderful November everyone!
