Was it Worth It?

Raise your hand if you got up before the sun on Friday. Raise your hand if you were still in a turkey coma. Raise your hand if you don't know what the heck I am talking about. I did get up before the sun; 2AM in fact. I woke up at 2 and couldn't get back to sleep. My alarm was set for ten after 3. My niece and I were going to Kohl's first. They opened at 4. I stubbornly stayed in bed from 2 until 2:55 as I fought to get that last hour of sleep. I finally threw in the towel and trudged around trying to wake up. I ate a small breakfast and sat for a few minutes before I drove over to pick up my niece at my mom's house.

We got to Kohl's within minutes of it opening. This was especially nice because we had little or no time waiting outside in the cold. We spent a little over an hour at Kohl's between shopping and waiting in line. Our next stop was Target. We got their 15 minutes after it had opened, and there were already people coming OUT with their purchases! As a result, I got to take a closer parking space. Someone tried to take it from me. I don't think so. I was there first. Go away. After Target, Nicole--my niece, wanted to go to Starbucks. She ordered me a hot chocolate. Here is what she ordered: a tall white chocolate with 3 pumps of mocha. Well whatever, it was sure yummy. Then we braved it and went to Wally. It was very busy there, and we saw some people of Walmart. One of which was "mullet man." He had very short hair on top and the rest was almost down to his waste. So was it worth it? Was it worth operating on little or no sleep? You tell me. I need to be vague as some people I bought for will read this.
