I took a stroll over to the Co-op to get a couple of things I needed.  What a mistake that was!

I should have known better.  It's too close to Christmas.  The aisles were PACKED.

By the way, I'd like to thank all the parents who rounded up as many kids as they could find in the neighborhood to drag along.  That really added to the "festive" atmosphere.

Then I get home and I'm reading on Twitter.  A tweet catches my eye.

"At grocery store. Old man standing in middle of aisle, frowning hard, staring into oblivion, not moving."

Do you suppose that was me?
