even more holiday materialism yet again because i have no inner life
Had to leave the house last night after so many days of fucking holiday goddamned cheer. Went to B&N, which was of course fruitless, but still had the benefit of being not the house. The children's section looked as though there had been tiny rioting earlier. The clerks all looked sort of shell-shocked. Helped a lady find a copy of Chamber of Secrets. Continual traffic around the LOTR display, as America tries to figure out which books go in what order, the big numbers on the spines notwithstanding.
Then went to Blockbuster with the gift card Kim and David gave me. Came out with a big Gund stuffed Hagrid. He's amazing. Little knit scarf, microfiber 'leather' coat with working pockets, huge boots, tons of detail. His eyes are drawn like little Jesus fish, doubtless pissing off various book-burning mail-order clerics no end. Am thrilled to pieces, since I would never have bought him on my own. "It's just what I wanted, how evah did you know?"
