It would be different if there were some Christmas cheer left....but there is NOT! <BR/><BR/>I think that the absolute worst is when you are out, you get something at the store. you feel accomplished....and then you realize you have to go back. <BR/><BR/>my mr. is the SAME way. If he wants something, he just buys it. I think i have him stumped this year! ;)justmehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02355529145817481156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29734230.post-70884503399435034762008-12-23T09:24:00.000-05:002008-12-23T09:24:00.000-05:00It's kind of like the trampling incident at Wa...It's kind of like the trampling incident at Walmart on Black Friday - Do we lose all of our manners when we shop during this joyful season?<BR/><BR/>My dad & his wife always buy our son a Hess truck, which is doubly cool because we don't have Hess stations here.<BR/><BR/>Admittedly, we get our son tons of presents for Christmas, but dollar wise, it doesn't even approach the numbers you described.

And I have three children who grew up to be my best friends. <BR/><BR/>I also do everything possible to avoid stores during the season of peace and love because my fellow humans are mostly ignorant of the concept.heartinsanfranciscohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07535397382991383931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29734230.post-69768677792549514012008-12-23T00:15:00.000-05:002008-12-23T00:15:00.000-05:00I like the last minute gift hustle, in limited qua...I like the last minute gift hustle, in limited quantities.<BR/><BR/>I have an old manager who will forever be in my heart because he would tell asshats "I'm sorry, but you're going to have to leave. It doesn't seem that we will be able to work together." He only did it three times in 2 years, but it counted for a lot with me. One of those people he also told "I'm sorry, I won't let you get away with abusing my employee." What a great guy. I'm happy just thinking of him.SUEB0Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16301963922769609715noreply@blogger.com
