paint it black Friday

so of course i hit the stores yesterday, but i think i spent more at Starbucks getting fueled up than on any actual merchandise. we skipped the early bird sales this year because, quite frankly, there was nothing worth getting up at dawn and running over old ladies with my shopping cart, but we did find some good deals. i snagged a router for thirty bucks, and it has an additional ten dollar rebate. Tangerine Dream scored some tools and a flash drive, and we pointed the parental units in the direction of a new computer since theirs is the technological equivalent of an abacus. plus, i ran into an old friend and got to laugh at the guinea pig at the pet store. man, it was a great day.
