Holy Liberal Spending, Batman!!!
So...much...shopping...I'm in shock. Oh well. At least it's over with, for the most part. Hoorah! I is get you all nice pressies!
Also, more stupidity in the news. Honestly, it bothers me how people seriously miss the point. Recently, a teen died due to being stabbed as he tried to rob a man and his girlfriend. He was Native, and his parents and family saying the reason no charges have been laid is because of race.
Um...hello?
He was trying to rob them.
The guy was practicing self defence, and as soon as he did it, it is said he ran to a nearby convenience store for help. It's not like he just bolted or anything.
I'm not saying stabbing the kid was right, and I'm sure the court will probably lay some sort of charge on him...but honestly...your kid was MUGGING the guy. Maybe instead of trying to dodge pointing fingers by claiming something about race, you should deal with the fact that your kid was delinquent and maybe it has something to do with you.
That's my humble opinion, anyway.

Christmas Comin' Early...
Well, the shopping part at least. I know, I know, it's only gonna be November 25th, and it'll be a Saturday, but it has to be done. I'm going with Karla-la (Kari, I would invite you, but I'm getting your present...and I know you'd peek!)
Also...I will have to dress warm, and some sort of armour might be neccessary is to protect myself from the hordes of irritable shoppers hunting for Christmas gifts. The first person to nudge me and not apologize, or give me a dirty look if I accidentally nudge them and apologize, is getting a smack from my oversized shopping bags.
Gonna be fun...right?
You know, I've been so stumped about the Musical Quote of the Day recently. Sorry.

I Look Like I Know Things...About...Stuff...
Got my new glasses, and damn are they spiffy! It's nice to be able to see again. Plus they have a sweet sunglass attachment that instantly makes me the matrix.
So, on Saturday I'm going Christmas shopping. Yayayayayayayayay! I may not be able to get all of it in one trip, but I'll try. Usually I try and hold off on the Christmas-ey stuff until December, but Imma be so busy my head asplode. Plus I've had a little preview of what the mall is going to be like in a few weeks...it scares me. Now, don't get me wrong, I like hustle and bustle as much as the next person, but hustle and bustle to the point of not being able to walk down the mall without bumping into someone, who you then apologize to, and then they proceed to give you a dirty look or whisper to their friend, "Bitch." is not good. Like the last time I was in Chinook mall.
I can't think of a Musical Quote of the Day. Sorry.

Le Gross
Saw a dead and rotting cat carcus on my way to work. Gross. It's teeth looked very sharp. Ew.
Also...why is everyone I talk to in such a bad fucking mood today?!
Musical Quote of the Day
"Broke into the old apartment
This is where we used to live
Broken glass
Broke and hungry
Broken hearts and broken bones
This is where we used to live"

A Job at Garage?!
I went shopping at Garage today and the manager offered me some part time hours because I was so "outgoing and funny". So I might be working a few extra hours a week, and I'll get 50% off...except then I really will have no money...but cute clothes!
Also, some realtors are here duking it out with my mom over the asking price of the house. Someone is putting in an offer. It turns out we won't move until January...I dunno. It's gonna be weird, but at least I'll have one last Christmas in the house I love.

Oh Santa...
I gotta admit, the Santa at the mall display certainly has Christmas spirit. He walked to his castle ringing jingle bells and really playing the part. It was cute.
I can't wait to get paid and go Christmas shopping. And pay my rent, would be good, too, I suppose. I know what I'm getting for almost everyone. And it's not all from Claire's, even though I get a sweet discount. Some of it is.
Oh, yeah, another thing about the store is that the Christmas CD, for the most part, SUCKS. I heard several renditions of "Frosty the Snowman", each one worst than the last. So, I'd better charge up my iPod so I can listen to it after my shift to drown out the effects of Hilary Duff squawking her way through "The Little Drummer Boy". Which was one of my favourite Christmas carols but has successfully been ruined, thankyou very much.
At least I have tomorrow off.
I can't remember what I was going to say...which sucks because I think it may have been semi-important.
Musical Quote of the Day
"Tired of being what you want me to be
Feeling so faithless
Lost under the surface
Don't know what you're expecting of me
But under the pressure
Of walking in your shoes
Caught in the undertow
Just caught in the undertow
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
Caught in the undertow
Just caught in the undertow
I've become so numb
I can't feel you there
Become so tired
So much more aware
On becoming this
All I want to do
Is be more like me
And be less like you"
