Sorry I have been MIA again. In my job, quarter end, month end is so busy. We are off to Cross Lake for some R and R. Should be fun. We'll be back in perfect time for Father's Day though. Please no rain, please no rain. I gotta keep my tan up!
I went to Target tonight and had Peyton with me. I have this new little wallet that holds my cash, credit cards, ID, etc- something I can grab if I'm out instead of my huge checkbook wallet. Since I went to lunch and used it, it was in my glove box. SO- I'm checking out and I write a check. Mind you Peyton is in the cart, I have 3 cases of pop, ( 3 for $9.!), my other bag. NEW TEAM MEMBER, per name tag, checks me out and asks for my ID. WHAT? Am I being carded at Target? Oh yah, it's been like 10 years since I wrote a check there. Check cards rock. Anyway- I'm thinking are you kidding me right now?! I tell her -my wallet is in the car that has my license in there. well do you have any id? No, (repeat) it's in the car, I have my expired license here -since she asked for ANY ID(my hair was long and I just been married and just can't quite part with it yet. Oh yah, and the weight is very pre-Peyton). Yah, no that isn't going to work. (why, cuz i'm fatter now, what's the problem? I personally don't expire. It's clearly still me with my name.) do you want to go and get it out of your car? SURE. (if i could "honk" with the tone of my voice, i did just that.) I grabbed Peyton, my heavy ass bag I call a purse- still has my tupperware from my fruit and full liter of water. didn't think i'd actually be carrying it around!- and headed out to the parking lot. As I am piss-ily walking out with P on 1 arm, large bag on the other shoulder, the nice security guard person says "thank you, have a good night." Again.., what?? thank me for walking out of the store pissed off with no purchases.? For some reason, this makes me even more mad. My hair is down-aka- hot on shoulders!- I have long sleeves on when it's 85 out, I haven't eaten for 7 hours, pants, heels, a 50 lb purse and a kid on my arm. yah, don't be thankin' me right now sir. I get back inside, show her my VALID license and out we go. That was a long story, yet the highlight of my day. I was not rude to NEW TEAM MEMBER, to her face anyway, but I know now to never forget my check card again.

Target is a pain - I hate whenever you are checking out that they always ask you if you want to open a Target credit card. Being asked 500 times pushes me over the edge -lol. I think the security guard at the door should not speak to customers as they come and go either. I don't blame you for being annoyed!
