Impending apocalypse

It wasn't the Snowman Nativity Scene. It wasn't the "Smile, Jesus Loves You" Saf-T-Pops that were labelled "kosher." It wasn't even a plethora of cheap "Jesus loves you snow much" winter merchandise.

I am not sure if it was the Praying Hands chocolates or the Smiley Bead bracelet with a cross on it that sent me into a spit-take. But the cross-shaped suckers didn't help. And the fact it's all imported from China (Oriental Trading Company Inspirations catalogue) does nothing to endear the whole sentiment.

It's only October and I'm ready to Bah-Humbug my way through the Hols. I'm not done shopping (and I should be). I don't have a thing wrapped. I don't even have the fragging Halloween costumes done, don't talk to me about Christmas!
