The Thanksgiving weekend seems long gone but I had a great time. It was so good to see Susan again. We did alot of catching up, shared some fine food and drink, did a little shopping. Oh and had jello shots, a first for me. I don't recommend the strawberry/tequila ones. Anyway the three days flew by.

This was the third time ever I've had the day after Thanksgiving off, last year I was in Iowa, so this year I decided I'd try the Friday morning shopping thing. Heh. I had no clue that many people were out and about at 6am waiting at the doors to get to those sales. The first place I arrived at was Target at 5:55am, there was a mob outside of the door and the police was there. So skipped that place and decided to go down the block and hit Circuit City. No parking places. It was a mob. So I was back home by 6:20. Forget that. I think I'll work next year.

I did manage to get most of my Christmas shopping done. It's going to be short and sweet this year. I even managed to pick out my own gift: a 20GB IPod. I've not had much time to figure it out yet and I need a teenager to help me figure out ITunes. Seems a little clunky and archaic to me. BUT I haven't read the user's manual yet. Gotta do that.

Well gotta get my butt in gear and get ready for work. Again.
