Well I thought I might not listen to any Christmas music this year, but I cracked tonight.
Tomorrow is the MMC‘s annual Holiday Extravaganza and my part of it is to lead a Christmas Light Tour. It started four years ago based on an article in the Augusta Chronicle and it seems that every year the number of gargantuan displays of holiday overload dwindle in number. Two years ago we moved the party location to a different spot and that cut down on the possible routes to take too. Tonight we went to see what we could come up with and the answer is very little. There are only 2 houses left on the tour worth seeing. We did find one more, but it was a 17 mile trip to add it to the route…next year we will have to find something else to do as a prelude to the party.
What better way to go driving and looking for Christmas lights than with the top down and seasonal music playing on the car’s audio system. So I popped the CD full of 700 Megs worth of Christmas MP3s.
That’s a lot of Christmas music! I didn’t really become a fan of holiday music until a few years back, now I really look forward to it. I guess it’s because I don’t work retail and have to listen to it throughout a whole shift.
I hope to have your CD out to you this week.
I have 20 Christmas CDs of my own, plus there have been a few that have mysteriously fallen off the truck on the Information Superhighway. 🙂
Seeing as I have been shopping very little recently, my exposure to Christmas music has been minimal. It is nice when you have that much music to set the player on shuffle, never know what you will hear next.
