christmas joy
shopping isn't horrible. it's the parking that is. here is a perfect example of why parking this time of year sucks:
this is a diagram of the target parking lot. the man shown is a chubby waddler who was carrying an overstuffed dunhams bag back to what i was assuming was his car. i did my little SUV stalking move and followed him from basically the target exit, across two lanes of traffic, then almost to the end of the lane--where he then CUT ACROSS THE LANE, presumably looking for his car.
why was this SO annoying? if you notice the drawing, you'll see that he was walking in the lane farthest to the side. don't you think if you parked your car in that particular lane, you'd remember? i mean, the guy walked all the way from dunhams, to the last lane, only to double back looking for god knows what.
adding to the irritation was his slow and laborious pace. plus he kept on doing this thing where he was pulling up his pants, but also making it look like he was walking toward a particular car. WRONG EVERY TIME.
i wanted to ram him with my car, but channeling the christmas spirit, i just moved on. more reports of holiday shenanigans to come.

And a merry Christmas to you, too.
I had to stalk students in the parking lot at Quinnipiac... they used to be a line of cars before class to follow students... best was my roommate would always have class before me so I would pick him up and drive him to his car and people who were "in line" would get pissed off...
Maybe he wanted the exercise? Anyways, great post, regardless.
