because Christmas comes earlier and earlier every year

I’m glad my name’s not Christmas

One of the things I like about working Monday through Friday 7:00 AM – 3:30 PM is that it is still light outside when I drive home from work. One of the things I DON’T like about working Monday through Friday 7:00 AM – 3:30 PM is that it is still light outside when I drive home from work and since I never really leave the house often once I’m home, night driving has become a show of high intensity tail lights, halo’s street lamps, rainbow ringed traffic signals, and a 90’s Southwest colour palette of HID headlamps surrounded by a blackness so dark that I swear it has a gravitational pull.

 

Narrator: So, the reason I was looking for you… there was another loud noise on the side of the house
Paddy: Does that mean it’s Thanksgiving or Christmas? Between our timeline issues and capitalism running amok, I’m completely out of give a fucks to give
Narrator: It is still early November
Paddy: OK I’ll go check it out for real this time
Paddy: Why is it dark at 4 PM?
Narrator: Daylight Savings. Oh, and it’s mid November now
