Local Seattle radio station WARM 106.9 switched over to non-stop Christmas Hits some time Friday afternoon, so we all know what THAT means right?

IT'S OFFICIALLY CHRISTMASTIME!!!You may now freely put Peppermint in your mocha, blast those Christmas tunes from your car stereo, put up the tree and start watching your collection of Christmas Movies

I have "Love Actually" on pause right now!

[captain_slinky]

Oh yeah... that *is* a Christmas Movie! I keep forgetting to put it on my Watch List! Since I have a 7-year-old daughter, I don't end up with many "Grown-Up" movies on my list :)

I have many friends, though, who have all-night Christmas Rom-Com Nights and some day I shall join them :)

Usually Elf. Cuz it's always on super early :D

There's a few movies I save until December. Like Charlie Brown Christmas.

I cam to the conclusion last year that there are FAR too many Christmas shows, episodes, movies and specials out there for me to just wait till December to start watching :)

[jeesh]

Very true. Certain ones are always on super early. But I gotta keep a few of them sacred till December.

Also, Elf was on our short-list of movies to start the season with :) Elf, Santa Claus Conquers The Martians, The Grinch (Live-Action), Santa Claus (1959) and Arthur Christmas were all considered!

I'll give YOU the same advice regarding Christmas Joy that I was given several years ago, and it sounded insincere and jerkish to me back then but by golly it WORKED.

The only person that can ruin your Christmas is *you*. All those people and things that you think are ruining your Christmas are only ruining their OWN Christmases. Other people can only ruin your Christmas if you let them.

It's a variation of the old "Dance Like No One's Watching" advice :)

You sound a lot like my poor Mom :( She wants to be all Christmassy right now, too, but she lives 2 hours away and I can't drag my family all the way up there to see her all the time :(

Well at least you have folks like me on The Internet who appreciate your Christmassiness and will help you find some Holly-Jollies :)

We've watched "The Polar Express" twice already. It's my son's favorite. :)

[captain_slinky]

Polar Express has REALLY grown on me over the years. When it first came out I had no idea how to deal with it, but now I really really love it :)

So glad to see that it's on Netflix streaming right now!!!

I really enjoy The Grinch. My family hates it because I force them to watch it all the time.
