Word Count: 360 If you plan to go shopping anytime between now and December 25th, you'll
likely notice holiday commodities displayed with all the intensity of a
blizzard; jewelry, cosmetics, boxers, lingerie, pajama pants, lollypops and
socks – where did all those socks come from anyway?!? But for true Christmas
revelers, these are the low hanging fruit of the holiday cornucopia. For them,
the real pursuit is in search of the Holiday Holy Grail, “The Christmas
Sweater.”
And pursue it they do. And thank you eBay for contributing to the insanity!
Whatever happened to my plain ol’ red and green Christmas sweatshirt? Aunties,
grandmas and mothers-in-law have disguised it with Giant Santa’s, Gleeful
Snowmen, Intricate Snowflakes, Little Drummer Boys, Lords a Leaping, Golden
Rings, Reindeer patterned after hieroglyphics, and Christmas trees of unnatural
colors. And they seem to be picking on more than just my beloved sweatshirts.
Just yesterday I saw 1 turtleneck, 2 V-necks, 3 cardigans and a partridge in a
pear tree adorned with scenes of penguins wearing Santa tuxedos, snowmen
caroling, and angels trimming trees. Penguins in Santa tuxedos? One desecrated
sweat shirt pronounced “Such joy can hardly be contained!” Hardly be contained?
Hasn’t been contained! As if sweatshirts weren’t sacred enough the craze has
enveloped cardigans, turtle necks, tee-shirts ties, socks, belts, coats, hats,
gloves and (may the Great Grinch Intervene!) our underwear. Well, not my
underwear, of course.
I don’t know about you, but the next time I head out to the company Christmas
party, a holiday Broadway show, or midnight mass I’m leaving “The Christmas
Sweater” hung with care - in the closet.
Happy Holidays!
