The Break Up.


Dear Target,

My heart is racing. My palms sweating. I know when to admit that I've got a problem. So let me just say this: I have a problem. In fact, you're my problem. Just when I thought you couldn't be any more perfect, you go and do this to me.

I just saw the children's collection and my heart skipped a beat. Literally. Baby clothes don't often have that effect on me. But this dress just about threw me over the edge. With it's little bloomers and rosettes. How could you be so cruel?

And a bike, Really? Now that's downright mean.

This is where I'm supposed to say "it's not you, it's me." But really, it's not me, it's YOU. With your clean aisles, your well-stocked shelves, the Pizza Hut counter and now with Liberty of London. I don't know if I can stay away. But I know that you're no good for me. You're like my own personal brand of heroin (and yes, that was a bad Twilight reference) Goodbye for now. I hope our paths cross again someday when I can be a little more responsible.

Oh, wait. We're out of deodorant? Maybe one romp down the aisles couldn't hurt...

Hilarious! I couldn't have said it better myself! I'm headed there in about an hour... to look at the Liberty of London stuff of course. In the meantime I need to come up with a list of stuff we actually NEED :)

ps, LOVED the Twilight reference... it wasn't bad in my book!

I bought that same outfit for my friend's little girl! I just wish they made the sundress for women in the cute patterns that they made for the girl 7-14 section. I also was hoping to get the cake platter but my Super Target never received it. I hear ya on Target being a money trap!!

hehhehehehe... YA, I'm with you girl... I never leave without spending at least 75.00 bucks! Great marketing those target folks have!!! My personal brand of heroin is PB Kids... thankgoodness we don't have a store close.

Isn't it sick? I always use any excuse to drive the extra block to buy anything there or even just read magazines! Luckily the bike isn't in stock (I already have one novelty bike I don't ride but I NEED the Liberty one)...and that baby outfit is too cute!!!

Thinking of you too, hoping all is well!
