November 28, 2014 / travelingsalesman /I cannot think of anything more dreadful than going shopping on Black Friday. I am entirely fine with those people who enjoy it. I know for some families it is a day to shop with a sister or a good friend, and I can see where that would be fun for somebody. But not me. I hate shopping, and Black Friday just seems like something I dislike magnified by ten. So…I guess I could start Christmas decorating. Except I am the tree guy and the outside lights guy. And about seven inches fell last night in a “lake effect event”, so putting up lights sounds like a bad idea. Tomorrow will be 44 degrees and sunny so maybe I can put that off a day. The tree? Ah, that’s pretty easy, I’ll get to that later. So, that leaves me here at the computer with my coffee and this site. Geez, I might as well go to work.
