Yes it is November 5th, and yes KOSY 106.5 is already playing Christmas music!!! I think they started November 1st. Not sure though. Okay, let's just get this straight; I LOVE Christmas music, Brent too. We are big fans....but for crying out loud, what about Thanksgiving! Starting Christmas too early ruins it in my opinion.
I remember being stunned last year at how early KOSY (and maybe others) were playing the warm and fuzzy music. So Monday night when Brent and I were driving around, we decided to check 106.5, and sure enough "Jingle Bell Rock" was playing. After finishing the song, (of course) we began to bash the radio station, and call others letting them know of the aberration!
I have to admit that a part of me wants to get sucked in, but I just tell myself--hold out until the day after Thanksgiving and then you can cave. It's kind of like Soap Operas--you know they are ridiculous and you shouldn't watch them, but if you let yourself watch one you're hooked. So every day Brent asks me "did you listen to any Christmas music today?" I tell him "no" and he keeps drilling me " are you sure?" Don't worry though I have to check on him every now again too. He is just as susceptible to the lure of Christmas music as me...
On another note, I can only stomach Delilah during the holidays. In fact I kind of enjoy her cheesy, cheerful, peppy, optimistic banter; but only during the end of November and and the month of December.
