*grumble, grumble*

The traffic must have been GREAT in y'all's towns today, because it was ALL HERE. AND we had to go to the store twice! Every single time we go to the grocery store near our house, I swear I'll never go back there again (generally we go way out of our way to an area of town we quite enjoy and just have fun listening to music during the drive). Then months pass and I start to think, Aww, how bad could it really be? I was probably just in a sensitive mood that day. I'll give it another shot--it's so close to home! And then I come out of there swearing yet again never to return. CURSE YOU, STORE, TO THE DEPTHS OF HELL! Oh, wait, you ARE the depths of hell; never mind.

So the reason we had to go to the store twice was because that evil store under the incompetent management of Crowley sucks so much we couldn't even find half of what we came for!

But we did FINALLY manage to run our three minor errands--it only took THREE HOURS.

Ahem.

Anyway, how are y'all's days going?

So, did it take you more time to shop nearby because it was awful and had nothing and you had to do it twice? Cos that seriously sucks.

Speaking of depths of hell, it's 5pm and 42C here - 107.6F apparently. Thanks, Google!

Sounds like you're getting all of the Christmas traffic. They have late night shopping tonight - until midnight. And sometime next week they're doing a 36 hour opening or something, all night anyway. In case you need to buy cherries at 3am.

I hope Christmas isn't too stressful, aside from three hour shopping trips, you know. Obviously.

*snorts* Sounds like our little corner of hell, traffic here is a complete nightmare!

LOL at "oh wait, you ARE the depths of hell." :-P as we discussed, you should have SAID something; I had no idea you didn't enjoy that store experience or those people! ;-)

It's only the 7th or 8th circle, though. If we were to visit park Meadows right around now, that's the 9th. That reminds me-- we need to hit the post office soon...
GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO...
