10. Seeing everything decked out for Christmas. For example, Dunkin' Donuts cups are festive, Target has holly and garland, Barnes & Noble is lit up. Late Night with Jimmy Fallon goes all out. It's beautiful.
9. Everything smells like alluring Yankee Candle Christmas candles.
8. The montage in Elf where Zooey Deschanel and Will Ferrell traipse around New York City to the tune of Frank Sinatra's You Make Me Feel So Young.
7. Hearing Nat King Cole and Andy Williams on the radio, and it's not weird at all.
6. Wearing festive sweaters every day and it makes everyone the happier to do so.
5. Coming home, getting into pajamas, getting a glass of eggnog, sitting down, and listening to Holiday Sounds of the Seasons on Music Choice.
4. Getting tweets sent to my phone from the NORAD Twitter feed and the Santa Claus official feed. They only tweet in November and December, so it's special.
3. ABC Family's 25 Days of Christmas and TBS' Marathon of A Christmas Story
2. Forgetting to watch a Christmas movie or two on the first weekend of December, so you get to have a marathon later.
1. Anything and everything that happens in December. It's a great time of year and I love it to death. Everyone is just...happier.
I agree. Happier and just warmer. The people and the places and the feeling. Just, better.
