Somehow, I don't think I would have chosen the name "Black Friday" for a day that is supposed to be a bargain-filled fun shopping day. The name itself connates something ominous. And no, I'm not old enough to remember the Black Friday market crash in 1929 but I do know enough about it to know it definitely was not fun.
Come to think of it though, camping out all night outside a store entrance to try to be first in line, fighting crowds, fighting traffic, spending lots of money, maybe it is aptly named after all. It would be a "black" day for me if I had to do it!
To each his own. I'm having my own version of Black friday fun. Lounging around, still in my PJs at 2:00 p.m. ~ my personal idea of fun and I'm doing just that.
