I was briefly at GIFTCON 1 this afternoon. It wasn't pretty. And I don't think I was alone, either. I seriously saw a guy standing in the skyway outside the downtown Target trying to work up the courage to go in and shop. It was a total madhouse. It's been like that for two solid days. Yesterday the power went out through the whole store. That's almost like biblical or something. I wouldn't be surprised to hear that later that day the Mississippi started boiling. Or that California got decked by another earthquake. Uhhh.

Anyway, at lunch I was gearing up to bitch about how christmas snuck-up on me and how I deserved more time to shop, but then I remembered that like six weeks ago I was bitching about how christmas seems to come earlier and earlier every year. There's a logic puzzle in there somewhere. Have fun with that, then.

And have fun this holiday. It's the only one where you get to say 'nog', so don't waste it.
