Note: I have been known to return the item altogether because of the inconvenience of having to return back to the store to get the tag off.

I've done this. Once I walked into an almost totally empty Penneys with a still tagged item, and both the credit card receipt and the store receipt and got so much attitude from the cashier that I asked to see her manager and told her why I was returning it.

Anyway, hi! I am here to say that the SO & I have declared that being on vacation and relaxing is better than being at home and working really hard, so we're going to leave working really hard to the people that like it better. That's ok, right?

sounds good to me Liese!

I found a job to apply for and I did not go watch tv, so YAY me!

we're going to leave working really hard to the people that like it better

Wait, who are these people? Can I hire them? For, preferably, no money, because according to this plan, I will be on vacation ALL THE TIME and they like it anyway?

I am absurdly grateful that it's not filming in DC.

Apparently it's a woman's world. Pilot season told me so.
