Mid-December is the only time that living this close to so many shoping centers really sucks. It's been a non-stop flow of traffic in and out of the mall all day long. It sucked when I woke up, it sucked when I left for Wamalug, and it sucked when I came home. My short trip to the mall today to look for a new winter coat (failed) and a few presents for my family (failed) was only short because I walked there. People get nuts around the holidays... I'm glad I don't like shopping or I'd have to put up with them a lot more frequently.
