Just another work day for us idiots in retail...

Ryan Freel has committed suicide at the age of 36. He said he's had probably nine or ten concussions in his life. It's frightening how much these line up with suicide, now that the world is looking.

We're alive! Well, unless we're not, in which case there won't be anyone around to make fun of me for gloating.

It's been a killer lately. I have the ability to sleep in today...let's hope it actually happens.

Nine years with the Milkmaid as of today.

I've got everyone but the Milkmaid covered for Christmas, but if I blow this one, none of it will have mattered.

There's just one week left to shop if you're the Christmassy type. Be warned.

I just can't get into the holiday spirit without a snowflake to be seen for miles. It rained here a couple of days ago and a few locals whined like it was the most unfair, ridiculous thing they could imagine. Sigh.

There's nothing like a tragedy to bring out the worst in people. I've heard and read some of the cruelest and most awful things in my life in these past couple of days.

I adore and need you guys, and I know I'm not the only one.
