Those Mexicans and Their Music

Dear Woman in the Toy Aisle with Your Daughter at Target Yesterday,

Did it occur to you that the people around you might not have known you were speaking of Dora the Explorer (not that it would have been much better if they did) when you said to your daughter (in a not-so-inside-voice), "I know Mexicans love music and all, but in the shower? Really!"

I believe my children shot you the same look I did. Sorry if it scared you. I promise we won't jack your car.

Signed,
All the Best Stuff Happens at Target (unless you can stomach the Dollar Tree or WalMart -- I can't compete with that kind of material)

The Law According to Murphy

Today we hoofed it around The Mall. Again. I am 1 part too excited about the weather to go underground to take the Metro and 2 parts too phobic to ride the Metro as the Grown Up In Charge.

God bless Tempur - pedic . There's a point in here. I swear. I'll get to it eventually. First, I must also explain that we had plans to meet...

Unacceptable

The only solution to my blogging debacle, to date, is the revert back to a standard template, without any of the bells and whistles that make my blog MINE. What is the point of a blog that is not MINE? How ironic is it that the NaBloPoMo theme for this month is "voices"? Today's post brought to you by the discourteous folks at Google who cannot be bothered to help the multitudes experiencing this problem. Thanks. Really. From the bottom of my heart. You guys are the best. Smooches!
