    xmas shopping sux...

    i'd rather get my teeth pulled out than to shop in this friggin' mob riot frenzy time of year. just to give you a mental picture...last night i couldn't shop with a cart cause of the amount of procrastinating shoppers who wait till the last minute why don't people shop in november, so i can get free access to the shelves by dec. 20th when i do my calculated shopping?

    bah humbug!!

    Get your bro to go shopping with you. He can herd them all into Sears while you shop the rest of the mall.

    Hey, don't talk about me like that...

    Around Christmas, I really start to appreciate my wife. She makes sure that the majority of our shopping is completed before the middle of November.

    I don't even help with the wrapping.

    Barely have input in the actual gift choosing.

    I just sit back on Christmas morning and watch things happen around me, like is the duty of any king of the household.

    I usually do too, but due to health issues this year it didn't happen....I had a good chunk of it done, but the rest was finished Friday nite...NOW I remember why I do it early.

    Mine's all done. It's amazing how many places I can order from online, and have the product shipped to me already gift-wrapped. Too sweet!!!

    I got a few more things to get and then I'm done. Man! What a stressful time of year. And everyone is everywhere. Everytime I turn around there is somebody right there.
