Awesome Monday

Hola. Happy Monday. Happy Turkey Week.

This week in years past would kick off the holiday season, but instead it now kicks off the holiday sales rush.

So I wish everyone who celebrates it, Happy Thanksgiving.

Now, tell us how you plan to be awesome this week; be it creating graphics, nailing words to paper, surviving family dinners or braving the Grey Thursday/Black Friday madness.

Me, I'm hoping to survive the retail hell and possibly get some words written.
