Scribble About Life: One Of Those Days

Do you ever have one of those days where you keep picking the wrong lines at stores? That was my day today. Lol. So I figured I'd tell you guys about it.

So my mom and I went to the mall. I had a censor left on a coat that we had gotten a few months ago, but it just got cold enough to wear and I happened to notice it yesterday while in American Eagle... and then the alarms went off. SO that was  a thing... Anyway we went to get that taken off today, there were lines all over, we got in a short line... but it still took a while to just do that. 

Then we went to Sephora... surprisingly no line there. There is always a line at my Sephora, but we were in and out there pretty quickly. 

Then we went to a small toy store and we were going to get a game for someone, but then we saw the price tag for that game and it was ridiculous. Plus we waited in line for forever and no one was anywhere near the register to help us... so that was an issue. 

Then we went to another store and there was a minion ornament that we were going to get... some woman jumps right in front of us and is asking the person at the register a million questions and gets him away from the register to go look for something. And that pissed me off a lot. She saw there was someone behind her, she saw that we only had one thing, and she still had to get him away from the register... and he didn't call for help, he didn't say "sure let me just take this woman first" He just went off to help her... so I told my mom it's not worth the line... let's just leave. 

Then we went somewhere else and we almost did good... but the woman in front of us said "No, this was on sale" and the person at the register had to go help her. She called for back up, but that girl was busy explaining every foundation they had at the store (this was a drugstore with mostly make up and beauty supplies) and this woman seemed to not be sure of which to buy... and probably wound up buying nothing. Lol. 

We also went to a CVS... the line didn't take too long... but we were behind 2 people and it could have gone a little faster. The man in front of us needed to print photos and the girl helping at the registers was called away to do that when we were there... so that wasn't a big deal, the other woman was done anyway... but that didn't take too long. 

Also I went to American Eagle because I accidentally purchased 2 of the same thing when I ordered online... and that was a long line. I was there yesterday and there was like no line, I went today and there was a big line where people had a lot of questions about a free candle... but they had a lot of help and the line moved quickly. Just funny I went in one day with no line and then the next day... huge line. Lol. 

This is why I've been ordering online so much. Especially around the holidays. There are no lines... yeah you need to wait, but they're usually here pretty fast and... yeah. I'd rather sit and wait then stand and wait. Lol. 

But it was still a good day. Shopped a lot... not a whole lot... but a lot... I did end up shopping online for a few things haha. And I ate pizza. I'm in a good mood because really all you can do is laugh about it... but it is frustrating. Lol.

Byeee!

Weekly Wrap Up 7.30.17

Sunday 7.23.17  Sunday was a really good day… it was kind of a lazy day for me… but my dad pretty much finished most of the painting in my room… he ran out of paint before he could totally finish it up… so he’ll finish that up soon… my mom is going to the paint store tomorrow… so hopefully he can finish it up then.  He also made some really fantastic barbecue pork… it was going to be pulled pork… but the pulling process didn’t really work… I kind of prefer the texture of it sliced instead of pulled…. idk. I like pulled pork… but this sliced pork was really delicious and flavorful and good.  We went for Starbucks and Ice Cream too… which was fun. Starbucks sends a lot of bonus stars offers after 2… so even though we go in the morning- we have to go after 2 because then we’ll get bonus stars, which my dad uses in New York because it’s a little more expensive there.  And then the ice cream… nutella ice cream with crushed oreos and marshmallow…it was del...

Scribbles About Food: Gloria Jeans Pistachio Chiller (kinda like a frap)

So since I'm doing all of the Frappuccino reviews, I thought I would give a shout out to a different coffee chain that I like... maybe even more than Starbucks! But I hardly ever go to it because A) People get your orders wrong there a lot B) I don't really live near one! So Gloria Jeans has some amazing drinks called Chillers that are like Frappuccinos, but they have always had a ton of really good and really interesting flavors. One of my favorite Seasonal ones is the Pistachio Chiller. They had this around this time last year also and its a really good unique flavor. Basically it tastes like pistachio ice cream... but in a frozen coffee form. Its pretty cool! And Pistachio is a pretty underrated flavor in my opinion. I don't get it enough, but I always love Pistachio and Almond flavored desserts and this in particular is really flavorful and just a really good chiller. I don't think there is anything at starbucks that compares to it really, its really different...

Throwback Thursday: Crazy Ex Girlfriend Season 1

One of my favorite shows is the very underrated Crazy Ex Girlfriend... and when I say underrated I mean the ratings are bad... I'm pretty sure there is a lot of critical hype that is very real and worthy of that sort of hype... I honestly didn't watch it live at all this year until the finale... it was all in my DVR... I had lost a little bit of interest to be honest after the first episode... but I bingewatched it all in one day pretty much and it was great... but that's season 2... let's go back to Season 1. If you're only familiar with Season 2... Season 1 isn't quite as dark. It's definitely more silly than Season 2. It isn't like the darkness and the drama isn't there, it just isn't quite as dark. I have a feeling the show is getting progressively darker, and the Season 2 finale was definitely the darkest so far. The show is meant to be a different spin on a Rom-Com. The girl moves across the country for a guy that has a girlfriend alrea...
