Go wild ... and share it...I'm happy to help, Cara! Go wild ... and share it with your friends. I, myself, don't usually do the whole Black Friday thing. <BR/><BR/>I think I'm ... what's the word ... empathic? Maybe that's not the right term. The thing is, people's moods rub off on me easily. So, standing in line with a group of angry, irritable shoppers on a cold, blustery pre-dawn morning is just a recipe for disaster. <BR/><BR/>I'll admit that I did stop by a store last year on Black Friday before coming to work. They had leather coats at a really good price ... and it was right down from the office. Not a horrifying experience by any means ... but I think it goes back to that empathic thing. <BR/><BR/>My husband and I were standing outside with a group of about 20 people waiting for the store to open ... and EVERYONE was in a great mood. We were all laughing and excited bout Christmas ... so naturally I was laughing and excited about Christmas.<BR/><BR/>However, the normal day-to-day shopping that happens in the four weeks beteween Thanksgiving and Christmas ... it's fucking painful. I can't stand rude people and it's like EVERYONE is rude when they're Christmas shopping.<BR/><BR/>I think Walmart needs to consider pumping gingerbread-scented ether into their stores ... not enough to KNOCK anyone out ... just enough to make 'em happy and high.ThirtyWhathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15013731537383431181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9238596.post-1132506802603231672005-11-20T11:13:00.000-06:002005-11-20T11:13:00.000-06:00AWESOME!

Normally I don't "do" the day after Thanksgiving sales but this year I might have to make an exception.Carahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05988570437143912976noreply@blogger.com
