Ads...I've looked at a lot of ads this past weekend. I thought I would make the traditional trek to the black friday sales. I didn't. I don't regret it either, I got to sleep and that was worth more than getting a CD for $7 rather than $10. BUT, this morning I was inspired by this ad to go to the local Dollar Tree store in hopes of possibly seeing these 2 scary children. One friend commented that "they look like they are 50 but photo shopped to be 6." I happen to agree. I can't put my finger on the kid on the left, but the girl on the right looks like one of those annoying ladies on The View:Apparently, her name is Sherri Shepherd. Actually the little boy looks a lot like Meg Ryan. Strange, I know. Well, Happy Shopping to all of you in this crazy season.

Thanksgiving... Today is Thanksgiving. I like Thanksgiving for many reasons. The primary reason would have to be that our country decided to always put it on a Thursday, which usually means you get to take Friday off too! Because it's just silly to come back from a Holiday only to work one day and go into the weekend.
I chose this scan for a couple of reasons:
1. Macy's is an American Institution
2. They host a Parade on Thanksgiving that is always way too long and has way too many commercial breaks and way too much lip syncing, yet I still love it.
3. This scan also shows Santa and it's a little symbolic of the Holiday season that will be ushering in tomorrow with Black Friday.
4. This scan is from an ad and I love to look at all the ads on Thanksgiving morning as I eat breakfast.

On this Thanksgiving, I want to thank all of my blog fans for reading this trivial mess.

Happy Birthday Nicole... The beauty about Nicole's birthday is I have never been able to remember if it is on the 24th or the 25th. It's always been close to Thanksgiving and sometimes even lands on Thanksgiving. Only Nicole knows the significance of today's scan. It makes me laugh even thinking about it. Nicole is a great person, she knows it... everyone knows it. I know she thinks that because I didn't blog on her actual birthday that I forgot... Actually, it's a combination of many things, but mostly laziness. Scanning has become a tiresome practice and in these lean times I really wanted to conserve energy. Of course I am kidding, I really was just lazy and needed the perfect scan for such a cool person and I finally found it. The question was whether or not to put it up on the 24th or 25th??? How bout I back date it to the 24th but just know I actually did it on the 27th and your birthday was really on the 25th.
Happy Birthday Nicole and don't eat too much corn on Thanksgiving!!
