Shopping..

Ok, so I don't do the "Black Friday" shopping. And this year was a perfect example why... a poor guy at Wal-Mart was trampled. Holy cow! For what I ask? To find a few deals? I think not.

But, I'll get off of that soapbox. I'm quite frustrated about it altogether. But anyway. I went shopping on Saturday with my best friend. I introduced her to a new store, a discount department store (kind of like TJ Maxx or Marshalls). She had never been there before and she was totally enthralled. Now, I am so anti-girl in the following statement... I hate to shop. When I get in the mood, it's fine. But in general, I truly detest it. Now, maybe if I were a size 2 and could find all the clothes I wanted I wouldn't have this problem, but since I am not a size 2, I don't enjoy it. Anyway. I took her shopping at this store. Now, when I first discovered this store, I was also very excited, because I bought a ton of clothes for next to nothing. However, never have I ever spent 3 HOURS in a single store at one time! 3 Hours!!!! I was ready to keel over by the time she was finally finished! I mean, I'm ok for about an hour... but 3?

Ok, girls... I know, I'm completely not girly am I? I'm missing a gene or something! First my husband can't deal with the fact that I'm not a "lovey dovey" person. I don't want to sit around staring into someone's eyes when there are other things to be done. I'm not one to cuddle... it irritates me. See, I'm missing some essential girl genes!!
