Deadbeat Holiday

As December cranks up the Holiday Festivities, along comes Anger, Frustration, Short-Tempers,
Rushing Around, and the occasional "Finger". I try to remind myself of all of this because, YES,
even the "Master of Cool" sometimes loses his head.

Be it the Mall (which is HORRIBLE this time of year), the gym or just driving around town,
there always seems to be more assholes out there than usual.

As far as Holiday Shopping, IF I need to go to the mall, I only go at lunch or later in the evening
(after 7pm). NEVER on weekends. Hell, getting into Target / Walmart are hard enough, let alone
during the Holiday Madness!

But there are great things to do during this time of year that don't cost a ton of money:

Julian for Apple Pie and Fall in a Quaint Mountain Berg

Driving around San Diego looking at Lights

December Nights in Balboa Park

Ice Skating in Downtown (Horton Plaza) or the Beach (Hotel Del Coronado)

Holiday Boat Parade in the Bay (December 12 & 19th)

See Santa in Fashion Valley Mall

Just remember what is important during this time of year. Family. Friends. Good times.
And be sure to keep your cool!
