It seems like the exact opposite to me. The holiday season now starts on Nov. 1. I don't remember it starting that early when I was younger. The stores seemed really crowded. The shelves emptier. The traffic heavier. The Christmas lights and decorations seemed rather excessive to me. People seem to put up more and more every year. Don't get me wrong, they are beautiful, but a bit much.
I don't know... I guess the commercialism in it all brings me down.
