Thanksgiving/Black Friday hangover and a memes

[calumfan]

I apologize a million times for not being around the past few days, I feel as if I've neglected everyone but the holidays are quite a busy time in my life. I am still attempting to catch up on all the entries I have missed.

I'll do a quick recap of what's gone on in my life since Wednesday.

-----Thursday/Thanksgiving in America: It was a pretty good time. 
*I did the annual excursion to Kmart for $.79 2 liters of Pepsi, $7.99 CDs. 
*I've been dieting (by eating more frequent small meals) and I've shrunk my stomach. I barely finished one plate of food. SO NOT A BAD THING!
*Mapped out (no literally mapped out) the shopping game plan for Friday's sales with my sister and friend Janet.

-----Friday/My annual celebration to the shopping gods.
*Up at 3:30 am after napping on my coma couch for 2 hours.
*At JCPenney's by 4am, Target by 5:15, Toys R Us by 7:45, the mall by 8:30 and home by 10. Yes I got everything i wanted including a new 8.2 megapixel camera for $89.00
*Final tally: I couldn't even tell you but I bought Guitar Hero 3 for hubby for our PS3 on bonorattle's suggestion. Also picked up Sonic/Mario Olympics for the Wii
*Nothing makes me feel better then standing in line with a hundred stressed out parents and the bustle of conversations halting when you mention that you have not only a PS3 but also a Wii. The daggers were being sent my way. I was hated.
*Took a nap and then went and finally got my hair done. It's been over 6 months since a cut. She removed almost 5 inches and added red streaks to my blonde. I love it!

-----Saturday
*More shopping and got $12.67 back for my hubby's "Call of Duty 4" that went on sale Friday after it was purchased Wednesday
*Had Janet's daughter over to play with my step daughter. I now know who the Jonas Brothers are. I wish I didn't!
*Finally talked to bonorattle after 3 days of nothing but texting. I missed her so much!

-----Sunday/Football Day
*Went to my first NFL Jaguars game in years (about 3 I think) 
*So much fun, we played the Buffalo Bills (my hometown)
*I have sunburn.
*So much Hugh goodies of the candid variety posted in hughbunnies ended a long Hugh drought. It is lovely.

We have fun with the shopping. I helped some shoppers out, telling them where to find the merchandise.

I really didn't need much of anything but since I am a shopping freak, this actually relaxed me. It was lovely

Black Friday is like Boxing Day?

I think the papparazi photos candids should come with a "This is a Daily Mail article" warning. I feel sick.

[a4lem.livejournal.com]

I need to see your hair! sounds freakin' awesome!! And nice to see you got some good deals. I never have the nerve to go shopping on Boxing Day.

And volleyball kicks ass!!!

OMG. I did Black Friday shopping too. I only need to buy presents for three more people, but that'll be easy. My God, we had some serious drama going on at Target, but we got a free bag! What time did your Target open? Our's wasn't open til six and that line was LONG. Luckily we got there by 4am so we were close to the front. Honestly, it felt like that game show, supermarket sweep.

I want to see a pic of your hair!
