Thankful - Day Twenty-Seven

27.) I'm thankful I'm not dealing with the Black Friday foolishness. Grabbing that fantastic deal on that perfect gift is NOT worth getting up way too early, freezing your tush off, getting trampled to death, and possibly ending the morning with a black eye...because you both lunged for that last remaining super-deluxe, limited edition, once-in-a-lifetime Elmo doll your kid just HAS to have, ending in a knock-down, drag-out between you and some other caffeine-induced mother in the middle of a swarm of other crazed, sleep-deprived mothers in the middle of Wal-Mart...I'm just sayin'.
