Onesome: Seventeen Shopping-- Malls? ..or one Internet? Are you doing more online shopping this year? The polls say we are, but I'm curious about what the real people are doing.
Arg. All I can say is...malls are evil. Shop anywhere except those mega-shopping centers, mega-stores, corporate thugs who claim everything's on sale but they're just robbing you blind. Ahem. Anyways, the traffic itself is enough to put one in Bedlam.
Twosome: Days--...or "Daze"? Are you finished with your shopping? Do you still a few things to go? What? Not even a game plan? ...or is there just one person you're having trouble finding something for?
I have no game plan for shopping.
Threesome: Left!-- What's left to do at your place (or where you are going)? Is the tree up? ...or maybe you're just happy you found the Christmas coffee mug and are calling that good?
Er, yes, the tree would be a good starting place.

Has anyone else watched a travel show called Globe Trekker? I found it quite entertaining compared to other travel shows so I decided to look it up online. I did not know that there was an entire subculture devoted to presenter-bashing...
I only ventured into a brick and mortar store ONCE to do my shopping, and that's because the online site said it might be available in the store, but was out of stock online. That and because my 9 year old still needs to be able to look at what's available to choose gifts. My wife still likes the tactile side of shopping, but I for one am glad I haven't had to endure trying to avoid all the crabby ladies in the overpacked stores.
Yeah, this online thing is sure sweet.
I was able to get a give I KNOW I would have been unable to find without a 2 hour drive. My wife was rear ended this week (Denver boasts the worst street and highway design in America - even the cops said one happened daily where my wife got hit), and she lost the license plate frame of her alma mater, which really bummed her out. I was able to hop online and find a better one inside of 20 minutes.
Wow, only once? I had to go to the grocery store at least a couple of times . :)
Yeah, the internet is definitely great because you can find pretty much anything--including a ghost in a jar (not that I want one, a pair of warm pants will do nicely).
