ScalziI've seen discussions about when it is that the Christmas season officially starts and ends, and for the Scalzi household, it starts after dessert on Thanksgiving, and ends on Epiphany (which is Jan 6), although as a practical matter it ends whenever Krissy decides it's time to put away decorations, so, usually that means Jan 2nd or so.
Steve's Place@scalzi Based on the number of connections to a Christmas music stream I used to run (hey - I should do that again), it begins in late June or early July and ends soon after New Year's.
