black friday. why the insanity?

it is black friday. a day that started state side and moved into canada. black friday happens the day after u.s. thanksgiving. it begins the christmas shopping sales and the stores open extra early. it's catching on a bit in canada, so far civil state side though is a mad rush. everyone crams the doors just to get in. it has been known to get ugly. parking at west edmonton mall today was packed. not fun to work outside with all the cars moving in and out trying to park. the parkade crew had to stop early because of it. ick. i still think boxing day is worse. anyways, cannot believe tomorrow is th end of the month. oy.
