This year retail stores decided to pay little attention to Thanksgiving and display Christmas merchandise instead, right after Halloween. At least that's what I've been noticing during my strolls at lunchtime downtown Chicago. As usual, I started my gift shopping pretty early because:
- I like to have things done properly and in a timely manner.
- Work gets really fuckin hectic around Christmas, and I don't want to spend my 1 hour of peace (lunch) pushing through a big crowd of people in a frenzy. That's my time to sit (across the street from my work) at the Cultural Center with a sandwich, chilling in one of their dimly lit nooks. Hopefully.
