Good morning, everyone. [img]graemlins/happywave.gif[/img]
Welcome back, Canadianvixen. [img]graemlins/awesomework.gif[/img] Well, it is 1 October and the Christmas shopping season is almost in full swing here in the plastic capital. If I go out a little later, I could find at least 5 stores who have a full section of wrapping paper, trees, ornaments, etc. The Neiman Marcus book of ridiculously expensive gifts came out yesterday, as well. For a mere $7,500, you can get a life-size action doll made of yourself. It's true--they will take some digital pictures of you, then convert that into a posable figure, like a mannequin. [img]graemlins/saywhat.gif[/img] On a more surreal note, did you know that for anywhere from $2,000 to $20,000 you can have some of the ashes of a dear departed loved one converted into a diamond, which you can then have mounted onto a ring? [img]graemlins/erm.gif[/img] I'm not sure what to think about this just yet.... One of the other cashiers where Belle works has been shoplifting on a daily basis for the last two weeks. Her husband makes enough money so that this person didn't have to work, so she must have some psychological disturbance. Kleptomania, I suppose. Anyway, they escorted her away from the store yesterday in handcuffs. What fun! [img]graemlins/wow.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/petard.gif[/img]
