the mad rush

the mad rush of holiday shopping has begun here at Casa de la Bug. In years past this usually means I put on combat boots, paint black lines on my face with grease, take a second mortgage out on my house and shove a stun gun in my pocket. I don’t know about where you are — but here in Tucson the shoppers can get down and dirty so you have to be prepared for battle.

This year I finally decided that instead of going out to the stores I’d stay my happy ass home and shop online for everything I needed. This has worked out purrrfectly and now I snicker at the parking lots full of crazy people as I drive by them in my blissed out state.
