Walmart

I am better now.
Yesterday I went to Walmart. I needed to get groceries and M' wanted to purchase weaponry. My children like weaponry, as I do. I prefer elegant weapons like swords, and sticks, and fans and stuff like that. If you are going to inflict bodily harm, you should look good while you do it.
My boys like those things, too. However, they are more efficient. They like firearms. Big Guns. It's a boy thing.
I wandered into the baby girl's clothing section while I was there. You know, of course, that I have a neice; I bought her a new outfit. Maddie is my New Favorite Person to Shop For. My kids are jealous, but they are no fun to buy for. They won't wear what I want them to anymore. So I bought Maddie a black onesie thing and a pair of jeans and a sweatshirt that is fushia and black. I love to see babies in black, because pink and blue are so overdone.
Did I just say that pink is overdone?
M' has decided that he wants to start wearing pink shirts. He also likes big guns, so I am not all that concerned. He claims that pink is "preppy." What is preppy? It sounds expensive.

glad you're feeling better!!!!
I swear, if more people went shopping, we would not have many of the syndromes that plague our world today.
for example:
Peace is abundant at the mall or Walmart, because there is enough to go around for everyone, this totally gets rid of anxiety and depression.
Restless leg syndrome? forget about it,you have to walk for miles in Walmart or the mall and will tire your legs out.
chronic fatigue syndrome? not while shopping! You are too busy exciting your mind to even notice that you're tired or emotional or in any pain.
Tourettes syndrome? no one ever notices Jeremy at shopping, so if you have tourettes, just go shopping and do all the ticks you want!
I LOVE shopping, and that's what I'm off to do in a minute.
TGIF !~ patti

I hate Walmart as much as you hate dogs. And for almost the same reasons.
