Shopping and Bad Art

Raise your hand if you went shopping yesterday! Woo-hoo! I scored some wicked deals, yo. I also almost burned down one store with my RAGE at what supreme IDIOTS they were, and came very close to beating down two huge fat men who cut in front of me in line at Sears. Apparently shopping makes me very angry. It's not just me, though. Anyone who was in the toy department at Target saw the brawls that broke out over those Doodle Bear things. Man, people went crazy over those. And? To the lady who had nine Doodle Bears piled up in your cart? I know you don't really have nine kids. Just make sure to mention in your eBay ad how you got those scary-shopper-eyes as you used your cart like a bumper car to shove your way through the crowd to get at the display. It should make them sell better.

I got almost all of my Christmas shopping done. This is good, because I'm trying to make this a stress-free holiday season. Stop laughing for a second and hear me out; I'm planning on having all of my shopping done in early December, we're not doing a Christmas letter for our families this year, AND I'm not going to do my usual baking frenzy where I give everyone I know plus their grandmas a tin filled with homemade treats. All this leaves me with is wrapping everyone's presents, making homemade soap with my mom to give to our family, and hosting a post-Christmas get together for my husband's side of the family. ...Okay, now I'm laughing too.

The BEST part about the Thanksgiving weekend sales this year was that I got a little something for myself, too. Watch this to see an artistic representation of my gift to myself using my Rockstar Art Skilz. Yeehaw, baby, I think I may have a future in the crappy computer art field.

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving, and gained a few pounds to prove it!
