Too Damn Early
Evil creeps up on you gradually, one warning sign at a time. As I sit here in the office, one such warning sign almost escaped my attention. A mere flicker of light in the corner of my eye, it would have gone otherwise unnoticed had I not been letting my attention wander.
There, out the window, across the street and midway up the apartment building there, I spotted them. Lights. *Christmas* lights. Before Hallowe’en is even over.
Bah, humbug.
They’re up all year ’round out here in Lost Hickville… Kinda ruins the festive feeling, all that overexposure.

Sign #3: Some person’s house I drive by every day going to work has a lit up Christmas tree icon thing hanging in their window. I’m ready for the plastic Santas. :P
