CHRISTMAS MUSIC

Each November 1st, a radio station here and there start playing Christmas music 24/7. More join in with each passing week. By December 1st, everyone is all in on the Christmas music. 

We get week after week of Rocking Around the Christmas Tree and - God help us - Feliz Navidad.  

So isn't it weird then, that at midnight on December 25th, it all comes to an abrupt stop. 

NOBODY plays a single Christmas song after Christmas Day. 

Zip. Zero. 

There is no afterglow whatsoever. It's like Christmas never happened. 

I guess I am weird about Christmas music. 

I grumble about the excess before Christmas.

And then bemoan its prompt dismissal after.

Can't we have just a little bit of balance?
