Only 364 More Shopping Days...

Start now, get a jump on things. Don't ask for tinsle the day before festive occasions, or actually expect it to be available. Ah well. It's over. Now starts the season of returning all the unwanted merchandise that people spent too much on anyway. Went home, read their bank statements, winced painfully, and brought it all back. Rent a gift...someone should just start a renting center for all your gifting needs. Wasn't so bad this year at the end, people regained some civility and rationality, if only for three days. The new year looms darkly on the horizon. What awaits us in retail then! *GASP* The horror, the horror. So, hollow people, you did not succeed in bringing me down into your gutural level of insanity and rudeness this season. Try again next year if you're up for the challenge.
