To shop, or not to shop?

That is currently the question, but it's not really mine to decide. My mom, grandma, mom's best friend and myself were planning on going down to the States for some Black Friday sales. We were even planning on going the night before and staying in a hotel, to get to the sales super early, but now our plans are in a state of limbo. My dad, who recently had an operation done on his knee, found yesterday that it was hurting and swollen. At my mom's encouragement, he went to the hospital today when it got worse. Turns out he had a blood clot in his leg, something that can be very serious, but fortunately not if treated properly. Well, with my sister worrying (A LOT, as usual), my mom getting all stressed over whether the hospital would keep him overnight and if we should cancel our hotel booking, my mom's friend deciding it might be a sign that we shouldn't go (because her boyfriend has a day off :P), it all got a bit uncertain. My dad's back at home now, with orders to go back to the hospital tomorrow, but I still don't really know if we're going shopping or not. We're definitely not sleeping there from the night before, the booking is already canceled, but we could still wake up at two and drive down in the morning. Although, with issues my grandma is having about going down as well, who knows what we're going to do anymore. Sigh. Ah, well, that's life, right? Unpredictable, best laid plans, and all that jazz. That's why being a ninja comes in hnady: a true shinobi is always prepared! (My preparation is not freaking out as much as my mom and worrywort sister XP). Either way, there's not much I can do about it, so I'm just chilling out for now.
Besides that rather eventful, stressfulish stuff, I've been finding some potential Christmas gifts, all manga related, of course. It's making me happy, seeing all the nice stuff I could have, and some of it isn't even very expensive! XD. Well, that's all for now, so here ends a rather hectic post number three.
