I was greatly amused by the proposed campaign stickers created [Modern Humorist. Good for those of you who have the "takes offense" toggle set to Off.

I'm probably going Christmas shopping tomorrow. Usual haunts in Birmingham: The Summit and the Galleria. Between those two I should find what I'm looking for. I'd love to hit up the smaller and more eclectic shops in B'ham, but to be honest I don't know where they are. A pity.

Other thoughts—I think that part of Mom's Christmas present may be a gift certificate to a store called "That Special Season"—it's a holiday store in her town that gets a lot of her holiday spending money every year. They have gorgeous ornaments, and the Snow Village stuff that she collects.

So much to remember…
