mass consumerism

Happy day-after-Thanksgiving! Hope you all enjoyed your turkey - or chicken, or lamb... - are now home after a long day of sales.

The only shopping I've done is to go into Bed Bath & Beyond to get a vacuum cleaner because I really need to vacuum. That's my project for tomorrow.

You would think it was summer by the amount of people in the market today. We were busy from 9ish on. Yikes. It was a little crazy, but we were getting thru. I even got to make some drinks during the busy time! Oh, happy black Friday, 7656! I missed you all today!

Dinner yesterday with Beth & her parents, her sister & brother-in-law & their 2 boys. A 21-pound turkey was WAY too much for the 8 of us - especially on top of mashed potatoes, dressing, rolls, yams, etc. Oh and a choice of pumpkin or berry for the pies. Can you say stuffed??! We ate at 1ish and were so stuffed we didn't eat supper. Needless to say, I was pretty close to ravenous this morning when I woke up for work.

So I worked and went to BB&B and now I am sitting in Starbucks pretending I'm actually doing work online. Which I sort of am. In a different window. I have 2 projects due for Typography within the next 3 weeks (when everything else is due!) and I really need to get working on them. We have lots of comps & roughs due on Thursday. Definitely makes me dread Thursday...!

Wow - this is taking me so long to write. I really am looking up stuff for those projects. And ordering the Zambonis Greatest Hits at amazon.ca since .com isn't carrying it. grrr...

Ok, I so need to remember why it was so important for me to blog. Oh yeah.... RHB & I wandered the market together on both Tuesday & Wednesday. So need to stay away from him! ;)

I'm going to leave you on that. Have a fun holiday weekend and know that I am missing you in NJ!

xo :)
