Now that Halloween is over, there seems to be a question among many as to whether it’s okay to put up Christmas decorations. My question is, why the hell wouldn’t it be okay?

People, there is no law or rule that says you can’t decorate for Christmas or put your Christmas tree up before a certain time. Just as there is no law or rule that says you can only listen to Christmas music starting on a certain date or that you can only watch holiday movies during the month of December.

So why are you wasting your time asking all over social media if it’s okay? If it makes you happy, do it. Shit, even if it doesn’t make you happy, do it. Who gives a flying fuck what the hell others think? Even if it’s someone you have to live with.

I listen to Christmas music 365 days a year. Seriously. Every single day I make sure I listen to some kind of Christmas music. All. Year. Long. And I’ve been known to watch “White Christmas” in the middle of July, or any other time of the year, for that matter. Along with numerous other holiday films.

For the record, my house has been decorated for Christmas since before Halloween. And the tree will remain up well into February. And I had my Halloween decorations up at the end of August. Because there’s no rules or laws that say I couldn’t.

So what are you waiting for? Get off your asses and get decorating!
