I was at Ross today and as I passed a green-and-white display of St. Patrick's Day candy and leprechaun-embroidered hand towels, I thought "Gee, I wish I was still writing the blog so that I could comment on my least favorite phenomenon of our consumer culture." Well, here I am, commenting on my least favorite phenomenon of our consumer culture. One holiday at a time please, people. As much as I dislike St. Valentine's Day, I want everyone to spend their hard-earned money on overpriced roses, red lingerie, and overly sweet chocolates before they turn their attentions to plastic bowler hats and green beer.
That's it. That's all the outrage I can muster for today, but the bile, she's a rising. Even though there is the promise of hope and change in the air, we still are in a war, the economy is crap, and I'm back to being single. Yep, the typing will come fast and furious in the months to come. Right after I finish watching this episode of NCIS.
