Yes, I am alive. Wednesday we had Thanksgiving with my parents, sisters, and grandmother. My baby sister and I picked up Grandma around noon, and we all just hung out until about 4 when we ate. I had originally planned on taking family pictures since everyone was home and it was nice out, but wouldn't you know that my dad "forgot" and showed up late. Way to be supportive of my trying to become a photographer dad =\
Thursday was the big dinner at Grandpa's with all of my aunts, uncles and cousins on my dad's side. There was only one person missing and she wasn't really 'missed' if you know what I mean. I again ate too much and snapped a couple of pictures.
Black Friday ... yeah. I got up about 4am with Peyton, and decided to head over to WalMart about 10 til 5 because they had a memory card for my camera cheap and I really didn't think the local one would be that busy. I got there about 5:15 and the parking lot was FULL ... as in, if I hadn't lucked out and pulled as someone was pulling out, I would have been parking along the edge somewhere. And there were already people on their way out with carts full. That's true black Friday shoppers there. In and out in 15 minutes.
I am apparently too nice for BF shopping. I don't push people out of my way and I don't grab things out of others' hands. I did manage to get my memory card, and a V-Smile system for J for Christmas. My aunt, who is a HUGE BF shopper, got me a 60GB external harddrive at Best Buy. No way was I going to attempt to get it myself. Now I can transfer all of my pictures/videos/Sims2 stuff over and maybe my computer will run a *little* faster (I'm only using about 27 of 30GB).
I'll do a better update later ... working on some website stuff right now. I just needed a break from coding before I tore all of my hair out.
