Christmas is 11 months away and some people already have their Christmas tree up Johnny Bitcorn Follow Jan 5 · 2 min read

I visited a good friend of mine who I haven’t got to see in a few years, and I have to say I was quite shocked at how much he’s changed. For a guy who used to despise Christmas, he seems in love with it now. We are only in January and my old buddy already has his Christmas tree up!

I couldn’t believe when I walked into his living room and saw it standing there, all lit up and decorated. I figured he felt like he was outdoing me or trying to make me jealous so I thought it was best to not compliment him or have him see me staring at it, no way I’d let him get the satisfaction. To add to insult, he even had a set of lights that he bought at Walmart a few years ago after seeing me with the same set in my shopping cart.

Haven’t seen him in years, and he invites me over to “humbly” show off his Christmas tree? Christmas is 11 months away! Maybe he just doesn’t have a storage bag? Nah, he just wanted to brag!

I walked out of his home confused, and as I drove home and the sun set, I began to notice many homes in the neighborhood already had their trees up, proof given to me to me from the lights that shined through their windows. For a split second I began to wonder if I should set mine up, it feels like just yesterday that I took it down and packed up nice and neat in my water, dust and insect proof zippable christmas tree storage box bag I bought on Amazon.

Atleast I’m not like them, I thought, as I walked into my house and turned on the Christmas lights decorating the roof. The sun had just set, afterall.
