What not to do!

Here is a quick post on what I feel was the biggest mistake of my weekend as well as the biggest mistake of any future bored persons in desperate need of something to do. Last Friday a friend told me that they were putting the family dog down and she was kind of upset. A cute little dog but he's old and has spent the last year really being a trooper and sticking life out. Anyway, out of the sheer goodness of my heart I ventured to the mall after work (about 8:oopm) to find her something to commemorate the great life she's had with her pet...BIG MISTAKE! I had taken no less than 10 steps out of the Zellers into the "mall" itself, ( I put this in quotations because very few people would recognize Devonshire as a real mall) and nearly gave up my conquest all together at the sight of 15 pre-pubescent teens headed my way!
The mall, once a location of pure joy and entertainment for the local shop-a-holic has turned into the local hang spot for ever teenager in the county...and they come dressed to impress...or atleast they wear revealing clothing or are dressed from head to toe in black, with chains dangling hazardously from their pants. This is no longer a destination to satisfy one's issue of boredom. I highly recommend choosing an alternate means of entertainment such as the ones below. Any other time of the week the mall is a great place to go to peruse the shelves of stores or to pick up that cd you've long been awaiting the release of, but a Friday night at the mall spells disaster for anyone over the age or 14.

I worked at the mall for almost three years, and I am *so* happy to be out of that place. Friday and Saturday nights were absolute *torture*.
