Spooky! gonk
I'm not big on Christmas music, atleast not the classical type, but I do find some of the rock variations to be enjoyable.
I can't seem to find any good radio stations around here though. So, it's either Christian music, oldies, classical, or country. I want some hard rock, or atleast something I can tune in and turn up. cool

I find to my annoyance that my favorite Raleigh station, 93.9, has gone all Christmas. razz I listen to 98.7 Simon where they do NOT play it & am very happy.
Don't know if you can get that one, Joshoowah--it's a Piedmont station, but they "play everything" so you might try getting it.
We had a radio station thread but I think it's deep down now. Check it out & see what stations members were talking about there if a diet of mostly 70's--80's rock doesn't suit you. I'm sure there's a hard rock station around the eastern NC area.

Thanks! I'll give that a look over.
I don't really mind any of the other music, but I hate how there's so much Rap being played on the radio. I personally don't like it very much. Actually, I think I might prefer to listen to some Christmas tunes over Rap. stressed

Ugh.... Christmas music.... I hear it everyday.... They've started playing it over the speakers at the Mall, and since I work at the mall (alot of the time all day) its all the music I usually hear.... I'm not the biggest fan of christmas music anyway.... Hearing it all day long can really burn you out on it...
I still have my XM Radio in my car so I dont even really listen to local stations anymore. My current favorite on XM though has to be UPOP. Its a pretty cool station. They play alot of international stuff. Mostly music from the UK.

Since 98.7 Simon is so random, I'm hoping at most they will randomly drop a Christmas tune in between the regular fare.

smile Yep! I can remember times when they would have screaming arguements when I was little, but instead of divorcing to solve it, they worked through it all & stayed together. I think too many young couples give up too easily. So it's rough & unhappy? If the marriage is really a good one, it should withstand that until you get past the troubles.
My parents are a very close & loving couple now. heart

Well, I am with family. My uncle, who I saw about a month after I got here, but hadn't seen since I was 7 prior to coming back stateside, lives down in Alabama. Unfortunately, I won't be seeing him for Thanksgiving, but maybe Christmas. And my grandmother lives way out in Las Vegas, so I doubt I'll be seeing her either. Although, I can't say I'm too disappointed about that part, as she tends to stick around for a bit too long. Can't blame her though, after all, she hasn't really seen her grandchildren all too often. confused
But! My father will be coming back from Kuwait a couple days after Thanksgiving, so we'll celebrate then... And hopefully get out to the beach after that, although it is getting a bit cold now.

If you guys aren't going to cook, I recommend hitting a Golden Corral or a Ryan's--Golden Corral is better. Their buffet is great & only gets better on Thanksgiving!
Forecast looks decent for this weekend.

Have yet to go to either, so I'll definitely suggest that. Although, I think the folks would much rather cook whatever they bring. Doesn't matter all too much though, bloody Accutane's got me on a tight diet. stare
