Look at me, all dressed up for X-Mas! Cool, hanh? Heck yeah! And this weekend, I'm going to start on the house!

Black Friday came and went and I survived quite nicely. I did a mid-shift, which spared me the fucking lunatics of the morning, all ready to shank a bitch because we didn't have the blah-blah-blah they camped out all night for. The store looked like a bomb went off in it, and folks were throwing things around like they were at a flea-market. I just kept smiling and ignoring everyone. These are the times it pays to look like a kindly old granny. :)

Now, I'm off to write sommoah, and obsessively rearrange my icons, woo-hoo!

I worried about you and the evil Black Friday shoppers! I'm glad you got out of it without being shanked!

i walked through best buy yesterday morning at 8:15, mostly because i needed to hit the rest room (shhh, don't tell), and was astounded by not only the crowd, but also the debris on the sidewalk from where people had camped out. oh man. i walked back out without buying a thing, figuring i've dropped enough $ there over time not to have to stand in line for half an hour for a cheap dvd.

i love your title line here. :)

Ha! Thank you!

*HUGS YOU* It's so nice to know there are folks on my flist who understand the need for knowing where all the bathrooms are.

Eeep!
Dude, i could *not* deal with that insanity. I'd rather be dead than go Black Friday shopping, and if i were working, i'd probably end up smacking somebody around the head and shoulders.

Jayzus.
*pets you*

Glad you made it out alive!

LOL! It's tempting, lord is it ever tempting! I just keep my head down and keep stepping!

Ugh, working retail on Black Friday! *CLINGS* I'm glad you made it out okay!

The post title made me LOL.

I have a friend who's hubby works at KMart, and he said the lines were like a block long yesterday for the big screen TVs that were on sale. Insane. That's why I stay inside on Black Friday and put up my tree. I figure I'd rather get crushed by that than mobs of insane shoppers!

Man, I long ago decided that it's never worth it to deal with the crazy folks who think the present fairy is going to appear to them or something. *snort*

Working retail during the holidays SUCKS. You are a strong Roxy.

Hi, you!!! Hope you gorged yourself sufficiently on the turkey and I'm relieved to know you came through CRZY DAY O' SHOPPING intact and still (relatively) sane. :)

Writing for you means more reading for me so let's all say a big WHOOP-EE! (I giveth you this poem, m' lady. Hee! *G*)

*HUG*
