Things To Do In San Diego: December 20-22, 2013

Let the panic ensue. I lost all my weekday shopping days and have no idea when I'm going to be able to shop. The good thing, I guess, is that there are so many small and local businesses that should have what I need for the most part, but Darren's family will be in town on Saturday and I'm still working at the football game on Sunday. My family will be in Vegas until Christmas, so maybe it will be a good week to catch some movies and just veg out...once I get that shopping done. Listings archive after the jump.
