For the record, I just want to say, my Fiance' dragged me out to Black Friday, we hit Wal-Mart, Target, Best Buy, Sears,etc. I have seen field amputations, massive head-wounds, and disfigured bodies, but nothing could have prepared me for this.
You walk in the store and little old ladies are staring at your cart like they are going to tackle you, take your stuff, and keep your bottom lip as a trophy. Furthermore, I wanted to just run away, but Kayla decided that it would be nice to go to the electronics, me being a smart man; just listened and followed her like a puppy, BIG MISTAKE!
Two women were fighting over a big screen, which I thought was going to fall off onto their heads, the way they were grabbing at it, the GPS case certainly didn't stand a chance. It was horrible. I went home and have been balled up in a corner crying ever since.
You two are just too much! (Though I'd like to have seen the old lady cat fight....)
I am going to shake my head over this one. :p

I hope ya'll had a great Thanksgiving. It was wonderful having my daughter, son & his wife over for an awesome feast cooked by my wife. I found out rather than 2 Jan as the approximate due date the stork my deliver Cooper Lee around 24 Dec. Wow, what a Christmas that would be. It is still hard to believe I'm gonna be a grandpa.
BTW RNmedic TN, I can send you a few PTSD help links if you like ;)
Yes, I need some CISD time for sure. Congratulations on your grand-child, that will definately be a great Christmas Present! All the best to you and your family.
You all are in need of serious help, that's for sure. :) Can you say Rubber Room? LOL.
Lol. I just checked my profile, and saw that I had 199 views. I feel like the cool kid on the block, lol.
Then I guess that would make you the bee's knees.
Nah, I think someone spiked my everclear.
Being a veteran of black Friday (ex-walmart employee) we would pray that we weren't going to be the one to unlock the front doors. They would be lined up so thick that we would have to go in by the loading dock. We would hide behind the first isle to watch the crowd shove and scramble into the store, then run back to our battle stations. i have seen a 80yr old woman sit on top of a computer box, shouting i need a stock man! Only to see her trying to drag it to the front on her own a few mins later. I have seen a grown man lie down on top of a trampoline box just to make sure no one would take it. There have be times that when someone would turn their back from their buggy and someone else would take something out they had been wanting. i love the couple that has the phones that are walkie talkies trying to find each other. Crazy i tell you. :18: But i was sadden to hear about the 34yr old walmart worker that was trampled this year when he opened the doors. kinda of sad:(
Got a Guinness right at hand. :D
AND I quote Pappy Boyington on this, "Give me a war hero, and I'll show you a drunken bum'. (The whoooole lot of us.)
Good morning, all!
