Black Friday

Kristen and I joined in yesterday’s so called “black” Friday shopping bonaza. However instead of frantically waking up a 4am and scrambling, we took a leisure pace, got our Beaners and didn’t get to stores until around 9am. The crowds, at this time, were bad at all…with the exception of Kohl’s. Dear lord, that place was a mad house. Althought, I found very good deals on toys, games, and even jewerly, the lines were sooooooooooo long that I simply dropped everything I had on the floor and left in disbelief. Their deals weren’t that good.Now, some of the deals on electronics were so good…I just could not pass two of them up. ‘My’ new iMac 2.0Ghz Core 2 Duo with 2GB RAM will be arriving sometime this Wednesday. I would have brought it home today, but I wanted the additional 1GB of RAM…so I had to purchase it online. I also dropped by Tivo’s website and found they had some crazy sales on there. So….we got a Tivo box for FREE with the purchase of a 1 year contract. So…Steve…I put you email address in for Tivo Points…I hope it was the right email address .I closed out this shopping-spree of day heading to Target in the late evening to find the place empty of people but stocked to the ceiling with goods. I have now completed….yes…completed all of my holiday shopping in one flippin day. YEAH! Yes, I am ‘done’. I can’t believe it.Dude, I am so jacked for that computer. I’ve been saving up for a new computer for about a year. Unfortunately, everytime I had enough to make the purchase…..something unexpected happens…and that money gets thrown at that instead. But this time, the deals were just too good. Kristen’s pretty excited about the Tivo, too. Again, we’ve been watching the sales on this one for awhile and black Friday FREE Tivo’s, well, it was time to buy.So let the negotiations commence for what room the Tivo will be going in. For nearly a year now, I’ve been pressuring Kristen to move my bigger TV into the living room. Due to the distance our couches are from the TV, a smaller TV really makes your eyes strain and the audio must be cranked up to get the sound to carry to your distant ears. Solutions: move my big TV and stereo into that room and place satellite speaks near the distance couches. So what is the problem? The armoir I have for my big TV……doesn’t ‘match’ the living room colors. Uhhhhhhh. WHAT!? Dude, it’s dark chocolate brown…the colors in the living….are various hues of brown. Again, what’s the problem….”It’s too dark of a brown”. [hair being ripped from scalp...]
