Donde` Esta My Dreidel?

As we approach the holiday season, work is getting a little nuts. Between the sales and new merchandise, if you really listen closely, about every 20 minutes you can actually hear a Christmas ornament shatter at Anthro. Some people are just so clumzy-they'll look at something, examine it super-carefully, look at the price and debate in their head whether they should buy it or not. After 20 minutes of careful inspection, they drop it. Oops, and then they flee the store.
I am looking forward to the holiday season for many many reasons. First off being that I'm going to Israel-what can be better than that. I was fully aware that I would be missing Black Friday, but honestly who wants to shop on the biggest shopping day of the year. The dumb tourists are all over the place. Speaking of which, nothing ticks me off more than slow-walkers. I have places to go, I run late to oh-so-many functions and the slow-walkers are partially if not completely to blame. The only people I will cut some slack for are the elderly, handicapped and I guess tourists-afterall, they probably paid good money to see the city, so let them enjoy, offer to take pictures of the with the Empire State building and be sure not to run away with their camera-they don't like when you do that. Otherwise, speed it up yo! What I like most about post-Thanksgiving shopping has got to be the start of holiday music. Some personal faves are "All I Want for Christmas", "Rhudolph the Red Nose Reindeer", "Santa Clause is Coming to Town", "Let's Hear Those Sleigh Bells Ringling(is that the name of the song?)", "I Had a Little Dreidel" but the top one on my list is one that was discovered by myself and Sam(who's engaged!) is "Donde Esta Santa Clause", so keeps your ears open because we heard it late in the season and having been waiting since last year to hear it again.
I know I haven't spoken about school in a while, which is a good thing, because there is really nothing to speak about. I haven't gotten lost, but I did set off an emergency alarm in the library today-that got me a lot of attention, lemme tell ya. Not to mention, there was a huge stop sign in front of the door I opened. But in my defense, I don't drive, so I don't really notice these signs you kids speak of. So just to serve as a "heads up", if you are ever in the FIT library, and you see a stop sign in front of a door, STOP. And turn back around!
