Dont play with fire!!! Embarassment of the week

The other day I made a trip to Target to get ONE item and walked out $60 later!!! Am I the only one that happens too?? Anyway I found 100 tealights on sale for 5$. I am all about ambiance in a great hotel with music food whatever...
So I decided to burn 12 tealights in a window sill in a suite overlooking saint anthony falls well....
About two hours into a multi hour appointment(with a first time client) the Fire Alram starts shreiking here I am with a person butt naked and my heart has just exploded. I blow out the tealights soo fast I am spill HOT HOT wax all over my body(no that wasnt part of the session) and I leap up the spiral staircase to the bedroom and proceed to climb on the flimsy railing(and I am not miss anorexic) to yank the the fire alarm out of the ceiling....can you imagine...fire trucks people vacating ahhhh msp LE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Dont play with fire HOw glamorous okay I sure made a great impression I bet that client will be running to nora and madison FAST...hehehe wise guy I would too

You sound like a really fun date, certainly not boring.

WOW! When they say you're really hot, I guess they really mean it.

Catherine Catherine Catherine, your pyrotechnic skills need some polishing.

I'm sure it would be to both our pleasures for me to show you how to start a fire and keep the flames burning all night long. hehehe!*evil grin*.

I too cannot go into Target without spenig at least $50, the only solution I've found is to limit myself to one Target visit per week, that way I only spend $50 in stead of $150 or more.

What I did in college regarding my Target problem..

I would only take 10$ more than I would need for items I was buying then when that wasnt working so well I stopped going all together and would instead get the basics at like walmart and would always walk out under budget becasue I hated shopping there. Walmart needs a serious makeover and a good marketing team!
Oh useless info of the day...When foudner Sam? Walton? was driving in the deep south one evening he found himself caught in a storm and was hungry and stopped at a dinner which was closed and a waitress opened up just for him (not knowing who he was becuase he was driving a beat up truck and wearingng jeans and a flannel shirt) and fed him a hot meal. When Sam died he left her a LARGE sum of money!!!

Hmmm... and how was that hot candle wax?

I used to be a horrible Target shopper. I tend to make my purchases online as much as possible now, especially when there's free shipping to get hooked on. Target's website itself needs a little more inventory, but it's getting there.
