Scribbles About Life: Getting in The Good Lines

So today I went to Target... and I feel like there is always a story to tell when you go to Target. Lol.

Anyway it was super super busy and they definitely did not have enough people working... which always seems to be the case after the holidays because its equally busy, but the store probably can't put in enough hours to give to the employees because it isn't the holidays anymore. Doesn't alway happen... but I feel like that was the case today.

Anyway I had 3 things. Haul: I got Aladdin on Blu Ray, Spy on DVD and a clutch purse that I'm going to use on New Year's Eve and will probably be my "going out" purse. It has a chain too, which I love cause I'm not a huge fan of clutches. Anyway there were lines everywhere except one lane... and I kinda new the girl that was working there must be closing soon... but there were no signs up and I only had 3 things so maybe she would take me anyway... and she did!

So I was super happy and super grateful that this girl that I knew was going home soon took me even though she didn't have to and she could have left sooner... but that leaves me with the task of telling other people that this lane was closed... and one woman was pretty miffed about it.

Well by "other people" I really just mean one woman... which is kind of understandable because the lines were out the door. She had quite a few things also I believe... so I said "This register is about to be closed" and then the woman that waited on me said "Sorry I'm closed" she said "but the lines are all around the street!" Street? Really? Lol there wasn't a street. But yeah the lines were ridiculous... but still the girl had to go home! She couldn't take anyone else, she'd been working all day and its probably been as crazy busy as it was all day... and she had to leave! I couldn't believe that woman was like asking her to stay! And yeah, its not that girls fault. She probably can't stay even just to wait on that woman because you can't really stay that longer because that messes up some of the hours for the store... so yeah. Not really her problem... just a risk of going to Target 4 days after Christmas and 3 days before New Years. So yeah.

My mom and I also had success at Costco! We got in the fast person's line and got in and got out. It was great!

And of corse we got stuck in a little bit of traffic... but thats inevitable... especially if you're in 2 good lines already!

So hope you enjoyed this blog about getting in the good lines... I feel like somehow all of my Scribbles About Life are about waiting in lines for things... but when inspiration strikes you just gotta go with it!

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...

Throwback Thursday: The Incredibles

This is one of the more underrated movies in the Pixar Universe... thatI think is actually getting more popular now than it was back when it was released... so that's good. I think it really stands the test of time... but it still isn't one of my favorites. This movie I think is pretty cool because it was the first time Pixar really used humans. When I was little I thought "Toys, Bugs, Monsters, Fish... the next movie will be about dogs!" And I was surprised it was this! I didn't know Pixar could do that! But I guess technically its about heroes and not humans... but then Pixar began to show more humans in their world and The Pixar Theory was started... and yeah. I just kind of want to state my opinion on the Pixar Theory here too cause why not: I don't believe that Pixar set out to create this elaborate world with all the movies connected... but I do still believe it exists in some way shape of form. It all adds up and checks out... so for me... somehow t...

Rereading My Favorite Thing I Wrote In College

Hey guys! I'd say "today's post is a little different" but they're all kind of different to begin with... so this might end up being the same- or at least something that can fit into this blog in a nice way. So I don't want to post the actual thing that I wrote... but in my college Creative Writing Class that I took at 21 we needed to write a fantastical realism short story. And I wrote something that I always liked. The lead character was a smart and sassy woman... the fantastical elements were exciting and unique... and the story as a whole had a cute ending and a good message... and I really liked the way that I took what happened in my real life and changed it into this amazing and fantastical thing. Re-reading it... it was still pretty good. I actually liked the ending a little bit better because it had a nice message about believing in yourself that I kind of just snuck in there without much thought... and there was a cute little love story. I liked ...
