Holding Up Traffic

I would like to know what pointy-headed idiot decided today would be a good day to stop traffic at all the mall entrances and try to get money.

Oh sure, it was a worthy cause - car seats - but good LAWD people! It's thisclose to Christmas and you're holding up traffic!

Not to mention that GroovyVic and her younglings were waiting in that traffic jam in La Tahoe to go see Santa.

Here I expected, based on the traffice hold-up, to wait eons to see The Man In Red, but not so much. We got there just as he did and only waited about 10 minutes.

And yes, I paid the outrageous price to get their photo taken. I am in the wrong damn line of work!

Oh yeah, and as long as we were there I took the brats kids to the shoe store for new sneakers. Another rip-off as far as I'm concerned, but Son is wearing out the sneaks he just got in August and the school is starting some new walking program in the new year. Oh well...
