"Open House" is an event that craft or floral stores often hold before the big holiday season. Basically, the store has several specials (Our store has LOTS of artificial Christmas trees). Many stores also have snacks and apple cider or something similar. It's usually a horrendously busy time and no one has time to think...
This year...
It was slow...
VERY very slow.
I had to roam around the store looking for people who wanted to buy trees. I may have mentioned before... I don't like people. I'm not the world's friendliest person and I would prefer to hide behind the partition and make arrangements than to wander around the store being friendly. I can, however, be friendly when I have to be. I think I was more friendly in the space of 2 days than I have been for the bulk of this entire year.
