No Black Friday Here

Seems like lots of people were all worked up to "take advantage" of the Black Friday sales. I can think of very few things I would rather do less than be at the mall at 4am the day after Thanksgiving to fight for items on sale. I really would have preferred not to shop at all today, but my father's birthday is tomorrow and I had to go out and get him a present today. I went out around 5 this evening, figuring the early morning Black Friday warriors would be all shopped out and at home by then. There were still a lot of folks out shopping, but it wasn't anything too crazy. And since it was so close by, I went by Michaels and spent $20 on yarn which will net me two Christmas presents and a hat for myself.
