DH would rather have a root canal than go to the mall, and I avoid it if at all possible!
My dentist told me that I enjoyed my root canal very much -- and added that if he'd known how I would react to the gas, he would have made a video to show to other patients who were considering the procedure. I consider going to a mall a social event -- it's been years since I found anything I wanted to buy in one. Malls seem to consist entirely of clothing shops; for about twenty years I've been looking around at all the thriving clothing stores and saying "doesn't anybody know about washing machines?" It doesn't help that ten years ago I moved to a town that doesn't have malls. We do have shopping centers; the one strung out along the east road has been looking sick ever since Wal*Mart moved onto the north road, and all the new shops are going up in Wal*Mart's neighborhood. This change was rather annoying; I can easily get to the eastern sprawlmart on my bike, but have to go through the entire town (or around robinhood's barn) to get to the northern sprawlmart, and the northern road has no possible alternatives, so it's crowded. Not a lot in the way of intersections, though. -- Joy Beeson http://joybeeson.home.comcast.net/ http://roughsewing.home.comcast.net/ http://n3f.home.comcast.net/ -- Writers' Exchange http://home.comcast.net/~debeeson/DaveCam/ west of Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A. where we've had our first frost, but it seems to have missed the peppers.
