Merry Shopping Interlude Day

Those who celebrate Christmas with its meaning: Merry Christmas!

For those who simply enjoy time with friends and family: me too, I’m off to the beach! (Update: it was 70° and sunny and calm at Pomponio Beach. This is perhaps why people pay one of the highest tax rates in the country).

And for those who shopped and will resume soon: rest up!

This shopping frenzy is mostly a USA phenomenon though perhaps it has metastasized... is it not best to give and share any day of the year of your choosing in the high state of appropriateness.
