Jesus would be celebrating Hanukkah

My niece brought up the what do you say for the holidays meme, and I found this. I can't believe we're already discussing this and it isn't even Thanksgiving yet.

Ok so I'm Jewish but freaking love the holidays. I get really excited when my local radio station starts playing Christmas music 24/7 on Thanksgiving through December. I just love it. Absolutely love it. IT'S ALMOST TIME *cackles evilly*

I'm Pagan/agnostic but my family is Christian on both sides, and yeah, me too. I adore the holidays, although I wish the radio stations would wait until after Thanksgiving to start playing Christmas music. I feel a bit Scroogish for saying that - although I do love that movie especially the Alistair Sim version - but the weekend before Thanksgiving is just a bit too early for Christmas to start.

Having said that, I am totally excited that Whole Foods has tiny table top Christmas trees! And it's driving me nuts that I can't figure out where my advent calendars have vanished to. ;-)

Oh, you're not Scroogish. Most human beings would probably agree, I'm just the idiot who starts singing Christmas music in July, I love it so much. (To be fair, it's 99% the golden oldies with 1% Mariah Carey and half the Christmas music is just jazz songs written by Jewish songwriters, so I like to squeeze some pride in there regardless)

That's so cute of Whole Foods! Four for you Whole Foods.

There used to be a local radio show called The Blues Plate Special. Years ago I taped (onto a tape, not a CD. That's how old it is) a whole bunch of silly Santa songs that I listen to each year. Stuff like "I Want to See Santa Do the Mambo". I really should get that transfered to a CD. I'd love to be able to listen to it in the car again.
