This Is Getting Ridiculous


So I went to Target today to buy some Carmex....you know, for chapped lips. Anyway, as I'm checking out in the Express Lane with my 89 cent tube of Carmex, I grab my receipt and head out when the cashier tells me to wait.

"What?"

"You have a receipt."

"I already have my receipt."

"You get another one."

"Another one?"

She hands me the second one and I'm wondering why Target is printing off two receipts for me. I look at it and it says "Gift Receipt." Now, I'm no wacko tree hugger, but this seems like a total waste of perfectly good trees.

First, who in their right mind would give Carmex as a gift? Second, who would give a gift receipt with said Carmex? Third, who does Target think is actually giving Carmex as a gift?

Seriously.

This is Why I Moved Down South


I hear it's cold elsewhere in the world....

Is It Time For a Liquid Confidence Night?


You know, I haven't had one since I was in college. Now I'm back in college. It almost seems right that they should return. Frankly, I've been having a hankering for one recently anyway.

To harken back to the good ol' days, I busted out my NASCAR mug on Thursday night. I missed the big guy. It was nice to bring him back. I only wish I had my Christmas one here too. Would really brighten up the holiday season.

Am I That Old?


During our Section Feud, I was named one of the most likely to be on a reality tv show. I was too surprised because I've often thought about being on Survivor or something. I just don't get how other people see that in me. What about me screams reality tv show??

It also got me thinking of the true original reality show: The Real World. I am now so old, I am no longer eligible to be a housemate. How wack is that? I never thought I'd be that old. And yet, here I am. What's next after that? There is no more pinnacle of MTV reality, unless somehow I move to L.A. and start dating L.C. Better check out apartments at the Hillside Villas...

When You Think of "Saved By the Bell," What Do You Think Of?


At business school, we are divided into sections. Tonight, to celebrate the last day of classes, we are having a huge party and a competition called Section Feud. Basically, it's just like Family Feud. Each section has a theme, and mine picked Saved By the Bell.

That got me thinking of the good ol' Bell viewing days. Life seemed so much simpler then. And everyone keeps bringing up the Jessie Spano addiction freak out moment. I guess that's the most memorable. Best acting ever. No wonder she landed that stellar Showgirls role.

Incidentally, I'm going as Jeff Hunter tonight. Don't know who that is? Then shame on you. You must have had a terrible childhood.
