Christmas in July

There are something like 3000 employees at the Home Shopping Network HQ. This is where I am working now. Apparently there is a strange thing that only I have noticed happening here. I am finding it increasingly difficult as the day progresses to not grab someone by the lapels (or blouse) and scream, “Why the hell are there Christmas ornaments all over the front lawn?!?!”

There are Santas and reindeer and Christmas trees and elves and presents … lots of lights … it’s an amazing display really.

BUT IT’S JULY!!!

I’ve been trying to just assume that I’m hallucinating the whole thing.
