1 Hour til Doom

So, IT'S THANKSGIVING BREAK!!! YAY!!!!! I haven't done as much relaxing as I would like, but my sleep schedule is SCREWED UP after staying up til 7am and getting two hours of sleep Sunday night. Oh well.

I got home Tuesday around 5. I slept for a little bit, and then Livia came over and within 40 minutes, we went to Walmart. We're so predictable. But I like it. Then I stayed up way too late writing a facebook note, and slept in til 2. I went to Livia's long enough to see Marissa for approximately 10 minutes, and then Liv and I went to Krogers, ate dinner, and watched Dear John. Channing Tatum is beautiful. I am so honored that I got to be the first to introduce Emily to that beautiful piece of man. Haha I can't believe I just said that.

Today was Thanksgiving. It was kind of crazy, so therefore the typical Lehman-Olson holiday. 32 people. 13 children. Oh and 20 balloons. What a fun mix. My favorite actually. Love me some MASS CHAOS!!!! But it was overall a good day. I didn't get turkey today, but we brought home plenty for the rest of the break. And I got pie. Reallllly stinkin good pie too. I got to see my sister's new house. It's a really nice house. And I saw my niece and nephew, but I didn't get as much time with them as I would have liked. Saw my dog nephews too :) And my dad said just the sweetest thing to me today. Like one of those things that I probably won't forget for the rest of my life. So that was pretty great too.

In roughly 35 minutes, I will be embarking on my first Black Friday adventure. With my dad. Just the thought makes me chuckle a little. But I need a new laptop. This current one I believe was purchased when I was either a sophomore or junior in high school, and has gone through 3 hard drives, a new screen, and now the hinge is broken. It's just time. So I figured maybe I could get a good one for a good price on Black Friday. And sure enough I found a Toshiba laptop with all of the requirements that Mr.Mwakanandi the tech-master had that also comes with a wireless printer for $450 at Best Buy. Perfectly in my price range too. So Black Friday, here I come. We drove Best Buy around 10:30, and there were about a dozen tents camped out by the store. I cannot even imagine. But Best Buy is passing out tickets around 3, so my Dad and I are bringing lawn chairs and are going around 2 to get a spot in line to hopefully get a ticket so we can get in the store at 5 am and hopefully get the laptop/printer. This could be rather interesting... to say the least.

Well, I'm going to go watch one last episode of spongebob before I bundle up and wake up my father to head off to sit with all the crazies outside of Best Buy. Except that I may qualify as a crazy now. But it's saving me like, $300 (That is if we're successful.) But I figure if I'm pretty much already trained to stay up late enough to do this and actually end up saving $300 because of it, then why not? So here's hoping! Fingers are crossed! Happy Black Friday everyone! Don't get trampled!
