Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I try not to even go near a centre of commerce on Black Friday unless absolutely necessary.
This is the first year I have to work though, which makes it even easier to avoid the hordes. I will instead be spending my day running the retrieval of vehicles from the Cuban Interests Section. I am the only one able to communicate with them. Tell me, why does a country send diplomats to a location where they are not fluent in the lingua franca? It makes no sense to me.
Hubby likes to go to malls on Christmas Eve to laugh at people. Plus the "OMG, we must sell this stuff, slash the price beyond the bone!" sales are often good.
We don't do Black Friday sales. Instead, we are doing birthday stuff because it's K's birthday (35th!).
Oh, happy birthday to K!
I know people who will get up in the middle of the night to get to stores at 4 a.m. on Black Friday. I think it's crazy. I've been to a mall once or twice, but the traffic alone is too much to deal with.
Huh. I don't own a 9x13 pan. I have an 8 x 11 and a 10 x 15. I think better to go down a size than up.
Plus the "OMG, we must sell this stuff, slash the price beyond the bone!" sales are often good.
This. Although in recent years, the deep discounting has started the 7-10 days before Christmas.
I would rather brave the mall on the 26th for the sales than on Black Friday.
going to work on Black Friday is a pain, because it's a nasty atypical traffic pattern that messes with the commute of blameless people.
I don't plan to leave my home on Black Friday unless the Indian restaurant is open for their lunch buffet.
Ooooo, there's an Indian buffet in town . . .
My body is freaking out. It's doing all sorts of randomly strange stuff. One arm looks like I've been cutting, but badly. I woke up one morning, and there were random streaks of blisters just below my wrist. Now they're darkening and reddening. I have no idea where they came from, if I'm having an allergic reaction to anything. And it's way too big an area to bandaid over to prevent chafing. What the hell is wrong with me?
