... Could have waited, but colds wait for no one. Twin sister sick. ....

Image (c) 2009, Karla Dorman


Why do I torture myself?  Going out on
the busiest shopping day of the year --
idiot.  Could have waited, but colds wait
for no one.  Twin sister sick.  Needed

relief; Kleenex and antibacterial sanitizer
was on sale.  Watched happy shoppers
be anything but:  fighting, shoving while
yelling at top of their lungs, 'Hey, that's

mine.'  (Didn't matter you had two of the
must have items in your cart.)  Did you
ever stop to think there will be those who
won't be having a Merry Christmas this

year while you beat the rest of us b.Lack
and blue with your selfishness?  Have the
bruises to prove it.  Guess their happiness
comes first.  Least I still have money left!

(c) 2009, Karla Dorman (11/27)

I stayed home for that exact reason. Plus if you charge it it'll cost you 88% interest as our buddies at Visa and Mastercard change the rules of engagement. Patrick

Best to order everything online ahead of time. I hate this time of year out in public! Great reminder why.

Glad I stayed home, even though I have a perfectly good excuse: I'm sick! LOL Otherwise I would have come with you! Sad when people's greed takes over the true meaning of the Christmas season ... then they wonder why people act like a Grinch. Powerfully penned madness; well done, Karla!

(((HUGS))) and much love, your twin, Karen Lynn. :(
