Operating hours

So I’m starting to learn I can only function until 3 pm, then I slump over. Today, I fell asleep standing up in SEARS small appliances. No one seemed to mind or notice. Spending this Christmas must have been good because the mall was wiped out. All I managed to find was a 50% off Audrey Hepburn calendar for Livvie. I really wanted to score a killer deal on a robe. I’ve had my robe since TAXI was on the air. There were no robes and no deals on the few robes that were there (No way am I paying $100 for anything, especially a robe.), even at Victoria’s Secret where I saw bins of glow-in-the-dark panties. Seriously? If you’re going down there, do you really need to see where you’re going? Can’t anything stay a secret?

THREE POSITIVES:

1- Accepted some qualified advice on my Kojak-dome: “Don’t shave it,” a bald man told me. “You’ll get nicked.”

2- The kids played with their friends all day, which always makes them very, very happy. Me too.

3- Zero mall inventory means zero shopping. I love writing and working with retail, but I hate shopping. My favorite part about the mall is leaving, a fact a lot of my friends find appalling. For the record, my dad says I’ve always been like that.

  1. My sister bought me an excellent robe at JoAnn Fabrics (of all places) last Christmas. It’s great quality, and I know she wouldn’t have spent big bucks.
