This happened about eight years ago. It was late in the year and I still had some presents to buy. A few mailorders had gone by the wayside, and I was left with few other options but a trip to the mall. But this was central Jersey, so I felt okay about that.
I got turned around a few times and missed a connection and followed the wrong signs for a while. It started to feel like I’d wound up behind a strip mall…
