We went out shopping yesterday. So did most of the rest of the city, which was foreseeable. Dziadek had never seen a mall; I think after seeing one, he’ll be content never to see one again. More importantly, we needed gifts, gifts, gifts — none of which we bought at the mall, because there’s only clothes and jewelry in the mall. And people, but they’re not for sale.
In these cyber days, a hunter such as I am (I don’t shop; I hunt) has a tough time justifying spending time fighting crowds for things that could just as easily be bought with a click of the mouse and a sip of coffee. Of course, you can’t really have your picture taken with Santa when you’re shopping online. On second thought, I’m sure there’s a site out there that makes montages with existing pictures.
