Just another trip to Target


I had to go Target (my favorite store) to get a phone cord so we could watch Breaking Dawn Part II. Direct TV won’t let us just order the movies anymore for some reason, we have to have a phone cord attached, I really hate it.  We can wait for the movie to download, but it takes F-O-R-E-V-E-R!!!!
So off I went to Target, only guess what??? Target doesn’t carry phone cords. Seems like they just aren’t in high demand any more. Hmmmm.
I picked up a few other items and headed to the checkout.
The following is the conversation I had with the clerk:

Clerk: Did you find everything you were looking for today?
Me: No, I didn’t. I’m afraid I’m going to have to break up with you.
Clerk: (blank stare)
Me: I mean we can still be friends and all, I’m just not gonna get that Target tattoo that I was planning on getting.
Clerk: (crickets chirping)
Me: It’s not you…..it’s me. No, wait. Scratch that. It is you, it’s totally you. After all, y’all are the store, I mean you’re supposed to have the stuff that I want. And when you don’t it sucks.
Clerk: (rapid eye blinking)
Me: Don’t get me wrong. I love you guys. Target rocks. I love you like I love puffy unicorn stickers. Seriously.
Clerk: Well….I…you know…..so…..um…….
Me: You wanna exchange phone numbers so we can talk about it later?
Clerk: (weird, freaked-out smile)
Me: No? Well, okay then, have a great day!

And off I went in search of a phone cord (HEB had one, go figure!)
