  • …that when I finally have things to write about I have no time to write? Yeah, I really do think.

  • It is no secret that I am a large customer of Target.  That I eat it up.  That I think there should be a TV show that plays Target commercials.  I would tune in every week.  I would get someone to TiVO it and I would watch it over and over.  Mom and I go…

  • So I was told that I am intense. Like as a personality trait. And I cannot believe that after half a year of writing about myself and 21 years of thinking about myself I never figured it out.  But intense is my word.  The word that describes me.  As in, "What is the one word…

  • With a Big Boss today.  The guy who oversees about 50 Target stores on the west coast.  It was like I was in a business class.  Only it was real life.  Only he was talking about real stock.  And real time.  And all the while he was delivering real customer service.  I barely understood the…

Glad I was able to get a weekend away before starting at Target tomorrow.  Have the feeling that life is going to get a little crazy.  I have become much too spoiled with free time.  Worried about how…

  • So.  In San Fran with my girls.  Last night was one of those nights where you just drink.  And then you drink more.  And then you forget that you should stop drinking.  And then you drop your camera and the bottom part breaks – but it still works.  And then you forget your phone in…

  • All about: This family of bars.  Visited three of the seven last night.  The fabulous over-sized white bag I found yesterday. The Nordstrom Half-Yearly Sale & the fact that I got an email reminding me that the sale began. gmail.  Honestly.  Get on board.  I have 91 invites left.  Let me know. Having Carol, Grandma…

  • Found this picture.  Laughed Out Loud.  Love the Dad.  My hero.  For sure.  And his initials are FAB.  Wish my initials meant fabulous.
