malls during Christmas season
a true test of sanity, as you contend with kiosk people offering you ****, infants wailing, contentious parking, lines with inexplicably understaffed checkouts, and bare shelves (for desirable items). this year is the black ice edition
I've been too busy to do it sooner, but now more family is flying in last minute, so I have to huff it out there into the churning vortex of retail hell to extract some acceptably thoughtful gifts
I'm hoping a pre-shopping beer, air pods and a solid plan will take the edge off one of the worst annual experiences
