It's almost Christmas. You're procrastinating, and they're short presents. You're at the mall. Bad things are about to go down.
This season is ending in a flurry of panicked stress, option paralysis and Christmas shopping.
Desperate times call for desperate measures, measures like going to the mall. Four days before Christmas, what the hell was I thinking waiting this long?
It truly was a frighting experience. Do you seriously want me to believe that you'll go to the mall, but you're afraid to go downtown? The panhandlers downtown have nothing NOTHING on the people working the kiosks. they held up just short of pulling a gun on me. Every single one I passed was more aggressive than the last.
Escaping that craziness we sought refuge in Dewey's located conveniently across the street. And the craziest thing is we met Jamie, who I swapped a couple emails with but had never met.
Then we got down to some serious drinking to forget the whole mall thing.

Your getting worser than me! I thought I was late when I went with Sharon last Friday!
ReplyDeleteKiosk people are the worst. If I'm alone at the mall, I pull out my phone and pretend to text furiously so they won't bug me. It usually works.
ReplyDeleteInteresting that they went after you, though. I always thought the kiosk people targeted women because we're socialized to be polite and bear interruption. You sure they weren't going for EM?
Mmmmm...Dewey's. So good.
