Go ahead, call me Scrooge

I openly admit that I'm a bit of a Scrooge. Not that I hate all holidays, just some of them, but I really hate the decorations. As Halloween, a fake holiday that I'm luke warm on at best, rounds the corner, all sorts of fall decorations and scary pumpkins start to adorn windows. There is even a pumpkinfest in the town where I work, so it's worse than most places. I'm not looking forward to pumpkinfest.
There have been many years that I enjoy Halloween, I've been to decent Halloween parties, and some creepy haunted houses, trick or treating was fun and I used to love the costume part. Now that I'm a 'grown up' I hate the idea of spending my night handing out candy so I'm going to hide.
I don't hate Christmas, but I do hate Christmas decorations in November. And I hate it when everything is decorated in green and red and covered in faux snow. Some decorations are nice, but I get angry when people and places go overboard. Don't even get me started on Valentines Day.
That's my cranky rant for the day.
