It's sad but true. Wal-Mart gives me anxiety attacks. Okay, not real attacks, but I dread going there so very much. It's always so crowded! There are other stores besides Wal-Mart, but people don't seem to see that. It's a never ending array of people from the parking lot (where there is never any place to park and I'm forced to trek across what seems like miles of asphalt to get to the entrance) to the aisles in the store. And what pisses me off the most? People don't know how to move out of your way! If I am coming down an aisle behind you, don't stop right in the middle to admire that shirt or to pick up that can of green beans. Move off to the side a bit and let me pass! People are idiots. Oh, and the service representatives suck too. I went in there the other day to purchase another controller for my PS3 and the guy in the electronics department was the most anti-social cockroach I've come across in a long time. I don't want to strike up a conversation, but a "hello" and "have a good day" are kind of expected by me. I'm just saying. It's a crock. I always come out of Wal-Mart with buyer's remorse and typically a disgruntled look on my face. I hate Wal-Mart. If they didn't have that controller for about $10 cheaper than Gamestop, my happy ass would not have been one of the patrons there that night.
Tonight is the annual Microbac Christmas party. Yay? It'll be my first. There are a lot of stories about the party last year. Not sure this one will live up to that one, though. From 6:00-9:00 is the goody goody time. We go, eat, listen to some big wig speak probably, and more than likely keep looking at the time to ensure it's still progressing. Everyone just goes for the free food honestly. I don't talk to most of the people at Microbac. I'm more than likely gonna be sitting around with the Pharmies (and Todd) and shooting the shit with them, like I do everyday. It's the after parties that most will be looking forward to. That's where most of the stories took place, obviously. However, there seems to be some confusion as to where it will be held this time. Whatever, as long as there is one. I made a pact with myself that this will be a good weekend. My week was hellish and I need to chillax. Started the chillaxin last night and it was really good. It must continue.
Now I need to get dressed and go grab something to eat. Need to get my stomach back to the drinking stage. The Pharmie pre-party will start in a couple of hours and I need to be able to get a good buzz going before I step foot into what will most likely be 3 hours of my life I will want to get back.
