Oh, and PLEASE ... if I have to hear Elvis or Sinatra singing another cutesy carol, I am going to puke up a gallon of eggnog. There is nothing worse than Elvis or Sinatra holiday songs -- I would rather have scabies.
And it's EVERYWHERE. It's awful. It's the most horrible time of the year (that's a christmas carol joke, in case you missed it.)
