Look, I know 2020's been rough. I'm not saying we couldn't use some Christmas cheer. But Thanksgiving still exists, and I think it's important now in particular to remember and be grateful for the things that really matter. Besides, we didn't have the pandemic as an excuse for radio stations playing Christmas songs in November all those other years.

Come on, just look at the titles of the songs themselves. Here's 12 of them that show Christmas music was just meant for December, or, if you really, really want, at least the day after Thanksgiving.

1. "All I Want For Christmas is You" — Mariah Carey

Aren't you going to see them at Thanksgiving?

2. "Frosty the Snowman" — Gene Autry

He's not ready to come back yet.

3. "Sleigh Ride" — Amy Grant

Not sure where you're going to go sleigh riding in the middle of fall.

4. "Where Are You Christmas?" — Faith Hill

Maybe it's hiding behind Thanksgiving.

5. "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year" — Andy Williams

Let's be honest, has 2020 really had a "most wonderful time" yet?

6. "Winter Wonderland" — Michael Bublé

Once again, not even close to winter.

7. "Last Christmas" — Wham!

You've still got Thanksgiving to enjoy, why are you already worrying about last Christmas?

8. "Santa Claus is Comin' to Town" — Bing Crosby

Santa hasn't even started packing yet.

9. "It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas" — Dean Martin

Not yet it's not.

10. "Christmas Time is Here" — Vince Guaraldi Trio

Craig Adderley // Pexels

Actually, Thanksgiving Time is here at the moment.

11. "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer"​ — Gene Autry

Tim Gouw // Pexels

We don't even know if we'll need him yet.

12. "Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!" — Dean Martin

Do we want that much snow already?


Trust me, the minute it's December 1st, I'm cranking up 101.5 The River and singing my heart out. I'll even tolerate Christmas music in those last few days of November. But let Thanksgiving be.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
