My favorite part of Black Friday is not the super crazed shopping sprees - though I did experience a little of that at 1 am. Oh my goodness, not doing that again! - but it's that I can finally listen to Christmas music without feeling that I'm taking away from other holidays. I love Christmas. I hate the cold, and snow, and wintery stuff, but I love that everybody is so happy. And excited. And families pretend they all love each other again.
This year I'm on the hunt to find some more non-traditional Christmas music. I love the classics, of course, but sometimes you want something a little different. For instance, I just love it when awesome rock bands release rock-n-roll versions of Christmas songs. Observe.
