One MoreTime

What a year it has been....and it's not over yet. I am changing jobs once again. I don't want to disclose too much information, but it is a marketing position and it has a lot of opportunity. I credit my good fortune to my cousin, Emily, who helped me score this great job ('Thanks, Em!') and to my whole entire posse of family and friends who have supported me always. Hopefully, I'll have no problem settling in!

On a COMPLETELY different note, I'm avoiding Wal-Mart. As a rule of thumb, I tried to avoid the place as much as possible during the normal year, but 'Christmas-Time-Wal-Mart' takes the cake when it comes to annoying the crap out of me. First off, I'm usng a carrying basket, so I don't have to maneuver a stupid push cart through the throngs of 'Marters' (new phrase, pass it round) and I go to check out the deodorant (mind you, I am the only one in the aisle). So I'm checking it out, trying to figure out which one is ideal for the woman who ALWAYS manages to get it on her clothes. Meanwhile, a couple has pulled their cart up behind me, therefore blocking the aisle. I continue to peruse the selections when another cart turns the corner. At this point, I'm balanced on my haunches checking out the stuff at the bottom. This woman pulls her cart up right to me and practically taps me with it. I turn to look at her and she's giving me this look like "move it!" "excuse me, what? I'm busy thank you" I glared back. She continues to stare at me (me, with one carrying basket, who was there first) and doesn't even ask the COUPLE with the ginormous push basket to please move. So finally, because her laser glare is singing the hairs on the back of my neck and because I'd rather move with dignity than to be shoved over by some angry woman, I get up and take a step back (CLEARLY indicating that she can pass through)....but what does she do??? She pushes her basket in front of me, stops and starts to check out the deodorant! Some people have absolutely no clue....Anyway, this seems to be the type of people I usually encounter at Wal-Mart, so it serves me best(and my high blood pressure) to just avoid the place at all cost. Plus, I think the place is run by a bunch of hypocrites. So, Merry Christmas Everyone, it's off with a bang as usual!
