Not A Word Until Thanksgiving. Got That?

Dear World,

I haven't had Halloween yet. As Halloween does not occur until October 31st, and today is October 21st, I'm guessing you haven't had Halloween yet either. As such, I would appreciate it if you might accommodate the following request: stop talking about Christmas. Don't tell me how many shopping days I have left. Don't put away the skeletons and ghouls on display to sell Snoopy in a Santa suit. Don't start discussing trips to Bronners with the kids. Just %#$&ing stop it. I'm not ready yet.

Sincerely,
Roger

P.S. I will make an exception for The Nightmare Before Christmas. That is all.

The Nightmare Before Christmas
