Malls, ugh

[donutsweeper]

Spent 4 hours yesterday traipsing around one mall and another five today slugging our way through the Mall of America to find daughter dresses for her upcoming bat mitzvah.  FINALLY found something she's willing to wear (the majority of dresses, according to her 'looked like a tornado threw up on them') and weren't cut in a way to turn a 13 year old into a street walker.

What is with stores blasting music to the point you can't even browse without going deaf?   *sigh* 

Two gorgeous dresses bought (this one and this one), one shrug and one pair of shoes and my wallet's quite a bit lighter.  But, most importantly, it is done so at least that's something I can cross off my list.  Like my sanity.

I prefer the guy with horns over the one with wings. More fun when he's around.

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

there is that!

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

There's usually more donuts and alcohol involved.

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

and coffee, don't forget the coffee

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

Ah, yes, how could I.

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

FOR SHAME

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

Apparently, I need to drink some.

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

I highly recommend it

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

I'm going to a movie, later, and I'm going to use my free drink coupon on the way.

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

brilliant!

what movie?

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

Religulous (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0815241/)

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

I hadn't heard of that one, it looks interesting!

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

I saw the preview when I went to see another movie a week or two ago and it just showed up at the local theater. I decided it was a good use of that birthday money.

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

It sure is! especially when accompanied by free coffee

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

Exactly.

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

then again, even taking a test would be better with free coffee

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

Don't I know it.

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

and for free coffee and free donuts who knows what we'd be able to put up with?

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

A lot.

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

now I really want a donut

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

Moohahaha.

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

all part of the evil plan, right?

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

Yes. World domination, one donut at a time. Or something.

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

that is a plan I can definitely endorse

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

It'd be an effective plan, I'm sure.
