So the boys and I went to Target. I had a few things to return and they wanted to look at the video games. After my quick stop at customer service I wandered over to check out the toys then caught up with the boys to let them know that I was ready to check out. Sam wanted the keys to the car but I was like, jeez this is only going to take a few minutes so you can just wait and he acted like the whole thing was going to fucking kill him.
Anyway at the self-checkout I scanned my three items and,
<throwing my arms in the air like I just don't care> "Hey, look, look, look!!"
One of the boys, "what?"
Me, "I returned three items from $34.61 and bought three completely different items for $34.61!"
Boy, "mffht"
Me, <looking around for the flashing lights. The sirens. The confetti>"Come on! Where's Bob Barker? I'm heading to the Showcase Showdown!!"
Boy, "Can I have the car keys?"
When I got home, I showed the two receipts to John.
Me, <wildly shaking the papers> "Look!" (blah blah blah as I explained what had happened)."
John, "I thought you were just returning things, what did you buy?"
Sheez, I'm so under appreciated. I'm not sharing my showcase with any of you!
