Most of you have a two or three day work week because of the holiday, and good for you guys! I will be working some absurd amount of hours this week. In fact, I will most likely be eating my turkey dinner at the cash register while ringing out customers on the eve of Thanksgiving. In lieu of this absolutely crazy work week for myself and my retail friends, I've decided to make this blog a photo blog to give myself and my readers a break from all of the writing and reading that comes with this hobby.
The following photos are of things that were on my phone that made me happy, or that made me laugh hysterically. I hope you enjoy these as much as I do.
LEFT: If we learned ANYTHING from the New Years Eve debacle of last year, it's that we should not pregame the celebration and that holidays are not an exception for getting kicked out of a bar. From what I understand, we also believed that the ball dropped twice.
RIGHT: Shirtless greeters are one of the very few things that make me excited about Black Friday. Afterall, it is the "hottest party of the year." That what I keep hearing, anyways.
Honestly, this photo is one of the funniest things I have ever seen in my entire life. A group of children sent thank you cards to an animal shelter that recently brought some puppies to their school. "Thank you for bring the dogs, SO CUNT." I think she meant, "so cute." Also, I just can't help but notice one of the cards underneath... I think that is supposed to be a dog bone? It is honestly hilarious.

RIGHT: To be completely honest, I am not entirely sure what this even is. Yoga shorts and winter boots? Regardless, girls, please stop dressing like idiots... especially in public.
LEFT: Bridesmaids will forever be my favorite movie ever made. The airplane scene is hysterical. "You can't get anywhere in five seconds, you're setting me up for failure."
RIGHT: Wine. On this particular occasion, I purchased the great majority of what the wineries had to offer in Ithaca, NY. All I want for Christmas is wine, and world peace, and mittens.
This photo is of dad and I in Hawaii over the summer. I am enjoying a margarita and dad is sipping on a banana smoothie. It was amazing to be able to go on a trip with our family after dad was down and out for so many years. Hawaii is an absolutely gorgeous place, incase anyone had any doubts. Yes, my dad has red hair. No, I do not have read hair. No matter what Jeff Jackson says, my hair is brown.
Last, but certainly not least, here is a photo of Zach, one of my managers, volunteering in Mexico last week. Zach spent his week helping to build an orphanage that will soon be home to hundreds of children. He sent me this photo one afternoon. How cute are these kids? When you are finding your life to be challenging, think back to this photo.
I hope that everyone enjoys their shortened work week and takes some time to really sit back and reflect on the things that you are thankful for. I am sure that I will have some outrageous material for next week's blog.
Here's to finding your favorite things,
Xoxo
