Black Friday

So why do they call it Black Friday? Hmmm. . .question to ponder or google search, I guess. They should call it "Crazy Friday" or "only fools friday" or "u have to be a crazy fool to be out here Friday!!" hahaha
We braved it and set out to be at Toys R Us at midnight. Well, we were running late because I had to get some coffee cuz there was no way I was making it through the night without it! No way! LOL We ended up getting there around 20 after and the place was packed. It was a freaking madhouse and the damn lines were already through the store. LOL what a joke! The good news is that I got everything I wanted except for one thing! The bad news is that we stood in line for over 3 hours!! Well, we didn't have anything better to do till JCP opened anyways! LOL I saved $50! so it was worth it, I guess. AND I will never do that again! People are just nuts. Some people had so much stuff in their carts, it was unreal. I am so glad those days are over for me. . .I remember when we had so many toys, it was unbelievable that there are actually kids who have nothing!! I do not miss the Toy days! stepping on matchboxes or legos at midnight on your way to the potty (WTF? I said "potty" lol) or tripping over stupid balls for the ball tent on ur way down the steps, or having thousands of stuffed animals all over ur floor, just when you are ready to run the sweeper! yeah, i am real happy those days are over!! LOL
I was really worried because I had to make JCP by 4 am to get my free disney snow globe. (yes, I checked the black friday freebies and that was the most important for me!!) I love disney, and I love snow globes, so a free snow globe was the best thing that happened to me on Black friday. . . .and after the TRU adventure, I deserved it!! LOL I was worried, because we didn't get there until like 4:20. . but we got lucky and got our snowglobes, and get this, didn't buy a thing there! Now that is my kind of shopping!! :)
Target opened at 5am and they had $3 toasters so I just had to be there for that deal! LOL My toaster took a crap a few weeks ago, and we really needed a new one! $3 toasters can't be beat, as long as I get one. We got to Target at like 20 mins till 5 and I will be damned, they ran out of the free target bags! Shoot! We stood in line for about 15 mins till they opened the door and the 500 people in front of us stormed in for their cheap tvs! LOL @ all those idiots! Shit, all I wanted was a freaking toaster! Whew! i got one!! :) :) This day is now worth it!! haha!
Next we went to Christmas tree shops and got a few good deals, then we went for breakfast cuz we were starving! then the bon ton to use our Free $10 coupon. . .off of $10!! All in all, we made out. . .and got home around 10:30ish.
Bed you say? Yeah, i wish!!!
Alex had a game in Hershey at 1:30. ..I rested for an hour and then got up, and went to the game in the freezing cold wind, tired as heck, and in a "bear" of a mood due to lack of sleep (but not entirely pissy lol) just tired. . .so tired!! LOL
It was a great game and we won 15-12 against UDA! This makes Millersburg the District 3 champs! I am so happy for them, but at the same time, i so wanted this football crap over! LOL
We were on the way home when Alex called all excited to say that they were riding the fire trucks through town to celebrate, and then were going to the Grace church for food. I opted for Bob to drop me off at home so I could catch some zzzzzz's and miss the whole firetruck celebration...believe me, they were better off without me!! LOL
I slept for 15 hours straight, not getting up once!! I was really tired!! LOL but I guess it was worth it. . .I am still trying to convince myself of that! ;)
