I'm not one who necessarily loves or hates crowds. If it were up to me and let's say I was planning a trip to Disneyland, I'd much rather go in the spring or fall when it's not as crowded as the middle of August- just because you can get more done when the lines aren't as long, and it's a little less stressful. But the last 2 years, I've found myslef needing to go out shopping with all the other phychos the day after Thanksgiving. My mom, Janna and I headed to just 2 stores... the first being Target. I do have a slight crush on Target and it's team members- but we were insane to even attempt it! Luckily my Aunt Ruth Ann called us on our way up there and they had just driven by and told us to not even attempt to find a parking place because it was packed! So, we parked across the street at Roberts Crafts (stop #2) and headed into Target.
We brought our handy 2-way radios and mom went to the toy section and Janna and I went to electronics. Shopping carts were being used as bullets to plow their way through the crowds- it was "typical", but crazy. Anyway... we found what we wanted (mostly) and made our way to one of the 32 check-outs open and were done there.

Ahhh... no make-up! Janna sneaked on more than me, but there were people there completley done up and I just don't comprehend that. Who are they trying to impress at 6:00 in the am???
P.S. My friends neighbor went to Kohls but not until later in the morning (not for the 4am opening) and an employee told her that they had to call the police because there was a fight between customers! I am SO mad I wasn't there to witness that!!!! That would have been a way more entertaining blog entry than this.
Thanks again Aunt Sandie for staying home with the kids!
