Confessions
Okay, true story:
After lamenting the fact that Starbucks was pulling an all-nighter between Thanksgiving and Black Friday, guess what I did.
No, really, guess.
It’s true. I went to Starbucks at 5:30 on Black Friday morning.
I am so embarrassed.
Amos was teething (or something) and woke up at 3:30. He would. not. sleep. at all, no matter what I did (or didn’t do).
So at about 5:30, I decided to let everyone else go back to sleep. I took him to Starbucks, and we had a lovely breakfast, and smiled at all the shoppers.
He was not the only member of the under-thirteen crowd out and about.
So, officially, all you retailers out there: not a fan of the whole encroachment of Black Friday into what should be a proper holiday for non-essential personnel.
But, you know, thanks for being open at 5:30 when I needed it.
:shamefaced:

Well, doesn’t Starbucks usually open around 6am anyway? So you didn’t push it too far.
