First Attempt at Christmas Shopping

My first day of Christmas shopping was a success. The day started with my Dad I and buying the family Christmas tree. We went to Target and ended up getting the first tree we looked at, so the whole experience took less than a half hour. Then I went to Costco and spend almost $200 on ... me. Nobody can accuse me of not pumping money into the economy. I bought myself some really nice gifts, including a case of Karl Strauss Stargazer IPA. This is the first time I've seen this beer for retail sale. I'm drinking one now, and it is quite good, but would be better if it were colder. Tomorrow I'll take my shopping list and buy gifts for someone other than me.
