The transition period between Halloween and Christmas
doesn’t last long any more in the retail world. I was in Target yesterday and
came across this one guy beginning the enormous task of setting up the major
display for lights, decorations, wrapping paper and who-knows-what-all:
Just a couple of aisles away there was this rather
poignant statement:
And right across from Mr. Jack was…this. I don’t know
whether it’s left over from Halloween or in prep for Christmas. You decide.
I might have picked up some candy to tide me over the
time while negotiating an offer, but all they really had left was a bunch of
Reese’s bags, and I’d starve before eating that stuff.
I'll bet that kid in the middle of nothing would be ready for even the Reese's by now, though.
