Shopping and Watching
So tomorrow is the Third Sunday of Advent, which means it's less than two weeks until Christamas.  And despite having my shit together enough to sent my Christmas Cards WAY earlier than I have, well... ever,  I haven't done any shopping.

Yeah.  So despite a late night (early morning?) I was up and at 'em early this morning, shopping with my parents.  It was a mixed bag out there... most of the stores were crowded, and others were INSANELY crowded.  At least the people watching was good: I have never, ever wanted a camera phone more than when I saw a VERY LARGE woman "test driving" a karaoke machine at Sam's Club.  She made America The Beautiful sound really bad, and more than just my family was snickering.  I think it's awesome... she had a good time, her own little William Hung Moment, and went back to shopping for catfood in the 200 pound bag.

We also saw a woman in full Jersey Housewife regalia: tight leggings, acrylic high-heeled open-toed shoes, Christmas sweater, and hair teased more than Richard Simmons in high school.  It was a definate PW (People Watching)  score of  8.5.

Oh, and we got a LOTS of shopping accomplished.  Now, if only this stuff would wrap itself...
