Tonight I decided that I would break with tradition and not leave things until the last second.
Instead of running around on the 22nd or 23rd of December and trying to get the few gifts I “need” to buy and dealing with burnt out sales staff, grumpy customers, massive lines and no parking like I usually do… I decided I’d make a quick stop on my way out for the evening at the local electronics megastore to pick up a gift for my brother.
While I was there I saw a display of behavior that makes me pause and wonder how parents stay sane.
