It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like ...

It may only be July 10, but to me, it's the first day of the holiday season. Why? Because I received my first four (unsolicited) holiday CDs in the mail at work today. Nothing earth shattering — they're last year's releases — but what do I care? They're new to me and I'm more than happy to get the ball rolling on the new A Very Marty Xmas CD. Now the hard part is deciding which of the tracks — if any — on Hanukkah Swings! and SantaMental will make it. (Not sure I'll use the other two albums. I may even give them away.) Tough choices indeed. Last year's mix set the bar so high that I need to start now if I'm going to top it this winter.
