    Default Christmas Shopping

    Oh ye Gods!!! I made the horrendous mistake of trying to finish up my Xmas Shopping today (Saturday). Aaaaaaaah! Everyone and their cat were shopping. Traffic was crawling along, nowhere to park when you did get to the store, thousands of people in the store. Never again, NEVER AGAIN. It's going to take me the next week to recover

    Here in the East, they allow the cats into those malls on Wednesdays, and give them 15% off as well (as an incentive to vacate the malls on the other days, so that the less hardy shoppers can survive the season.) So, I wouldn't be making any complaints if I were you...you just may be the brunt of some pretty nasty feline hate mail!

    Yeah tbsf - I feel your pain. I learned that lesson the hard way myself a few years back. Now, I plan it so that I never have do any shopping the weekend before Christmas. Hope you have a quick recovery!

    I'm going shopping Monday with a friend, her vehicle so she will have to worry about parking, that's the only way to go this late.

    I'm notorious about putting things off but miraculously, this year, I've got it all done. Sorry you had to endure all that TBSF!

    P.S. guys - TBS fanatic is not Willie - Willie is TimothyBFan. I know it can get confusing keeping everyone straight!
