The Economics of Christmas

Last night Dad and I decided it would be fun to throw ourselves into the stench that has become the Christmas economic boom. We headed out, with the intention of going to Target but ended up at KMart, for stocking stuffers. After about an hour, we headed to the checkout line, along with the rest of the store. All said, we spent way to long in KMart last night.

The went by the wine store to pick up a chianti and a 6 pack of Stella for Mom. We left with a case of wine, a couple cigars, a box of two ports and a 6 pack of Stella. The back home for a huge spaghetti dinner. Mmmm.

We watched 'Secondhand Lions' last night. Good movie.

Morning has come and I don't have to work until Wednesday, the same day Mom and Dad are heading home. It's nice to sit on the front porch, drink coffee and relax.

We are heading out for dim sum soon. We've decided to not get a tree this year. I hung the ornaments on the shelf with the stocking... with care.

Have a nice day... green lights all the way.
