Christmas Shopping

It is a brutal thing. Scouring Wal-Mart or the mall for those last-minute, must have gifts for loved ones. "Why didn't you do this last week or many weeks ago?" you might ask. Well to you I say, "Where's the fun in that?"

You see going to a department store when Christmas is a mere 5 days hence is an experience unique. Unlike anything else, last minute shopping is the Super Bowl of shopping. The season finale of shopping. Is it fun? Not really. Is it necessary? Absolutely. For without a last minute adventure—bonus adventure points if your last minute shopping is done on Christmas Eve—the holiday season would be without spice.

So think of something really nice that you would like to get for someone close, and wait until hours, nay even minutes remain before you make that purchase. And let the fun times begin.

Merry Christmas to all!
