I really had no plans yesterday…
Until The Girl Who Thinks She’s A Bird asked me to take her to the mall…
I hate the mall.
But then I remembered… Hey… We can go to See’s Candy… and use the gift certificates grandma gave us for Christmas to buy some Valentine’s Day candy…
Okay… I’ll take you…
Of Course … if you have teenagers…
You know any trip to the mall requires the appropriate survival gear…
And by survival gear I mean a head lamp and gas mask…
Only I couldn’t find the gas mask so I brought along some toilet paper…
Mavis…
You’re a nut…
Why on earth would you need that?
Have you ever been to Hollister?
How this store is still in business I have no idea.
First of all…
You can’t see anything… unless you bring a headlamp…
Secondly… you can’t smell anything… because all your nose hairs are fried as soon as you walk in the door… so you have to stuff toilet paper up your nostrils before you walk in the door if you expect to have any sense of smell upon leaving the premises…
And third… You can’t hear anything… (darn it… I totally forgot the noise canceling headphones… remind me to write that down for next time)
Anyway… I don’t get it…
I think that store sucks…big time!
Moving On…
After a torturous 17 minutes in Hollister we finally made it to See’s Candy…
I was able to get all my Valentine’s Candy Shopping finished…
And only had to pay .20 cents out of pocket…
Sweet!
And if donning a head lamp and .20 cent candy wasn’t enough
excitement for one day…
On the way home from the mall…
We stopped by my favorite recycling bin…
And I scored 28 coupon inserts from last Sunday’s newspaper…
