At the mall ...
I'm at the Mall at Short Hills -- which just happens to have an Apple shop with handy laptops.
In the 'burbs, the mall is the gathering place. Much of what you do here is shop, of course. But there's coffee and meals and, on a cold, rainy day today, a chance to walk around without getting cold and wet. Not terribly orginal thinking, but true.
I'm not much for malls. But the Apple shop and Nordstrom's espresso bar makes this one a lot easier to take. If only there was a book store.
Ikea furniture, on the other hand, can be the Pit of Hell (Went there today to buy a TV cabinet).
