Yeah, started on Supergirl, continued into Arrow, The Flash, and Legends of Tomorrow... Hard for Marvel to do that with their shows on different networks. I guess they kind of did it on Netflix with a season of The Defenders... would love to have SHIELD show up in the Marvel shows even if it's not a character from the show and just the organization.

That would be a lot of shows to keep up with.

The majority of my Christmas shopping is done.

Luckily I watch them all anyway, though for those that don't... Any if they didn't see the media about it they might be missing out on chunks of story line with gaps in it.

I did, thanks Chris. I did forget one person, though. I'll have to make a quick trip to Toys R Us for my nephew.

I need to get everything wrapped for a present swap in a week's time, so I have my work cut out for me!

I don't mind the wrapping. Figuring out what to buy people is the hard part.

It's a lovely sunny day here. I may postpone my Christmas decorating.

I think our Toys R Us is closing at the end of the year.

I can't wait for Agents of SHIELD 2 hour premiere tonight!

I think I remember hearing that Toys R Us was trying to stave off bankruptcy in Canada.

It's a lovely, sunny day here so I've put off my Christmas decorating. I'm really not in the mood. And it's something I normally enjoy doing, so I'll wait until I feel like doing it.

Yeah, apparently having a hard time to compete with Wal-mart and Amazon, and other online places. I do get though... if it's significantly cheaper elsewhere, people will go there.

I get a laugh when I find places listing stuff for a lot... even grocery stores sometimes... They will like a 591 ml bottle of Mountain Dew for like $2.29 when they sell em for a dollar at the dollar store... or like $3.29 for a 191g thing of Skittles when it's 2 dollars at the dollar store... Really wish the dollar store sold more sometimes... think I'm going to get my bread from there... I mean even when grocery stores have em on sale it's usually still cheaper there.

I think I make it easy for my mom as she asks for a list of stuff... but yeah... I'm lucky my mom is doing most of my shopping for me and I'm just paying for it.

My son gave me an early present yesterday. A Lego Advent calendar! Every year I buy Lego for the toy drive, and at first I thought it was something for me to add to my donation, but then I realized it was for me. It's going to be an interesting month. And hubby's all confused because he thinks there should be chocolate in it.

Does it have Lego pieces in it instead? Though it would be interesting if they had chocolate shaped like Lego in them.

Now that would be a good idea

Done a little Christmas shopping today, not as much as I would like...
