Excited to be Melancholy
Don’t talk to me about ChristmasAll it is is wrapping paper vomit
pine-scented dysfunction
carols for the Joneses
Don’t want your designer garbage
Market it with a “C”
Put it in the oven
For Jesus Christ and me
I want an IV of chai tea
A brulee of dried leaves
Bob Dylan and Morrissey
Just give me Fall, please

Great poem…I especially like the title. Fall's here…you've got your wish.
LOVE IT!!! Reminds me of the good ol' litkit days
Is this in response to Utah's new radio station that plays all Christmas all the time? (97.1 or something like that)
Is that true? Nooooooo! Seriously. ONLY IN UTAH! Don't get me wrong...even one such as I enjoys the Christmas music at Christmastime—I've even been known to start adding it to the rotation before Thanksgiving (!!!) ....but year round! Good grief. [rolls eyes HARD]
Here in the midwest, I've encountered the phenomenon known as the year-round Christmas store. This is usually found in quaint little towns filled with touristy-type shops.
You're a year-round Christmas store.
er Christmas WHORE
I don't think I've ever been called a year-round Christmas store—or a year round Christmas whore—before! I feel somewhat special.
ha. ive caught ICM listening to christmas music in october. i might still break out the mannheim steamroller come christmas time. i love fall too - but i love christmas. why is that? the vacation time, i think.
OMG my thoughts EXACTLY!!!!! I HATE Christmas.........soooo utterly depressing. Let's hear it for Fall!!!! I personally would be satisfied to celebrate Halloween all year round or even just leave the decorations up, but alas, my husband would probably divorce me....
