Thanksgiving...
Thanksgiving was wonderful! I was so happy to finally have a break from school and work and spend time with my family. My family and I went down to Tampa to spend time with my Mimi in Tampa, my aunt also came down from northern Florida. The day before Thanksgiving, my cousin also came down to celebrate. It is nice to have a lot of family together, but when only 2 bathrooms are available, things can get a bit crazy. We decided to go to Golden Corral for turkey dinner, and it was amazing because that means no dishes!! After eating so much turkey, I eventually passed out a few hours after eating in front of the football game on tv. The day after Thanksgiving... oh man... Black Friday. There were people lined up infront of Best Buy Thursday morning...no way. My mom, Mimi, and I woke up at 5:30am because I saw some last minute Christmas gifts in the Target ad I needed. When we get to the store, the line is past the garden center almost out to the street. I don't care because all I want is $4 dvds. So, we wait in front of the doors because we don't feel like walking to the back of the line just to walk back up in 5 minutes. It is not like we were going to cut over dvds... we didn't feel like getting beaten for line skipping. While we are standing there, people in line keep telling us the line is back there and constant dirty looks... oh well we knew we werent in the wrong :) The doors open at 6am and the line rushes in and everyone runs to the electronics department, while I head for the dvds by the dressing rooms. When I get to the dvds (maybe 5 minutes from opening), a manager comes out and tells an associate well that is all the tv's if anyone is asking. That is insane... but at the price they were going for, I wasn't surprised. After that escapade, we went to McDonalds and a few other stores. I had a blast over break, and I can't wait until Christmas break comes along... I am too used to lounging about in my PJs! Why can't flannel polka dotted pants be socially acceptable!?
