I must say. I've been in two stores today and people are happy and holiday music is playing, Christmas trees are up, toys abound and I can feel it. I could literally put the tree up today and have a great time, not be bah humbug.
Then you get a crappy cashier with a bad attitude who pretends they are mentally challenged in every single way and you lose it. Yep, just like that, the holiday spirit that was creeping up through me, slowly filling my soul, was slammed down like an empty aluminum can. Squashed flat. I let him have it. I did. Poor thing. I walked away still not feeling vindicated and got on the wrong highway (yes lets go to the beach today at 50 degrees and cloudy).
On another note we saw Fred Claus yesterday. Loved it. Great little movie. Vince Vaughn rocks, his delivery is perfect, you can see so much of (what we know to be) his sense of humor in it. Loved the songs, not exactly your warm and fuzzy Christmas classic but close enough and enjoyed it very much. I recommend if you want to laugh and you feel like getting in the spirit of the Holiday season you check it out. The Oldest saw it too (Thanks Grammy and Auntie V) and he loved it as well. Clean as a whistle but for two count 'em two cuss words "hell" and that was it. Rated PG and only two uses of profanity. Gotta be a record.
--OK I'm slowly letting the anger go from the cashier guy. FR.
