In a similar vein to mine, but you blew it out of the park with the addition of the grateful dead. Excellent!

Have a great week.

Ah, the holiday season effects everyone -- even the dead, grateful or not! I love it! Fun one for the day! Hope you have a great week!

I have this feeling that you are stressing from your holiday shopping-LOL!

Love it. Even the dead can't escape the madness of the holiday season.

I always wondered about how to awaken those Grateful Dead! You may have hit upon it.

They must both be female. The thought of shopping could certainly revive a lady!

One advantage of being dead - no need to shop - grateful indeed!

Holiday shopping is indestructible! Apparently, there is never any rest from it! Good one.

Still laughing over this one. You rocked this one! Great pun.

Hehe! In my experience, shopping kills more people than awakens them. :))

*snickering* the Grateful Dead shall never leave us!

If it makes you feel any better I haven't even started my holiday shopping.

Oh no! Hope that doesn't mean someone's getting a visit from the ghost of Christmas past! :)

I bet they're ticked off. Maybe they'll start singing and scare away the shoppers.
