~4:30 this morning I was up all ready to cause a commotion in the stores. LOL. Black Friday is one of my favorite times of the year. Most people would rather be sleeping and I'll admit, I've ditched out on it once to sleep but its tradition for our family and so I fully took it in this year.
~Walmart was crazy. We got there at 5:15 or so and the line was to the back of the store. Great... so we shopped for a few items and by 6:30, which is when we checked out, the lines were all calm.
~Westlake Hardware was a different story. 6:55 this morning, 5 minutes before it opened, the line was to the end of the parking lot. Sorry Dad, You're not getting your free drill this year.
~Linens and Things is my favorite currently. Thats where my christmas present came from and I'm absolutely excited. Its cute, pink, mini, digital and takes pictures. That's right... mini digital camera! wooo!!
~Worst place of all was Nebraska Furniture Mart. First time was nuts. Couldn't even get a parking spot, people parked on the grass. Good thing Village Inn was nearby to serve us some decent food. Second time going there was fine as far as parking, but insane as far as the checkouts. Seriously, whats with the "pre-line"? The workers held signs that said "End of Line here" and you had to go in to a "Pre-line" and wait til you could get in an actual line to check out. Sorry its not worth it to stand for an hour or so in the pre line and then stand another two hours in an actual line. We left. LOL
~Haven't slept hardly at all since being home. Probably slept a half hour then watched the Husker game. Honestly, I'm not too disappointed in the outcome of the game. The Huskers brought their A game in the first half. Colorado brought it in the second and the huskers just couldn't keep up. As far as Bill Callahan's fate, or any of the coaching staff for that matter, we'll just have to see tomorrow. You bet your bottom dollar that I'll be eager to see what all happens with that.
~This next week is gonna be so busy and I need to get motivated. Absolutely. Lots of stuff for my group to do, practices and recording sessions galore. ugh! I'm not so excited about these gigs but I keep telling myself that there is money involved. It helps me be motivated. Sounds sad I know but its true.
~My new favorite song on Disney is "Fuego" by the Cheetah Girls. Really good song!
~Thanksgiving was amazing. I had 2 dinners. One at OCB and the other at Allisons. I was so stuffed but it was good. Especially the mashed Potatoes, the Stuffing and that Pie! Forget the Turkey(I don't eat meat anyways) LOL
~Have a good weekend everyone!
