I thought about saying something and then I thought, 'Well, what exactly could one say?' So, I didn't say nothing. I guess I could have given him my disapproving arched eyebrow look... but he was running around and difficult to get eye contact with. Meh.

GC~ sometimes it is really hard to keep in what you want to say.

Mostly I deal with teens running around Target on half days. They came in and bought squirt guns and water balloons. I didn't think anything of it, of course they would all get wet but....

Little did I know they would squirt one another {not the same kids} insidethe store!!!

You know 'WTF do you think you are doing you little shiets?' is what I wanted to say but all I said was 'There are no squirt guns allowed in the store. Please take that outside'.

Or the young couple who came in wearing baseball caps, hoods, and dark sunglasses...to buy a pregnancy test kit.

Or the three young boys who bought a box of colorful condoms...I had heard them talking 'Here's my dollar for my share....' I didn't have a clue and when they came through all I could think about was the 'Summer of '42'. {is that it?}

It is hard to bite your tongue. Sometimes mine bleeds.

{oh, and I won't even get into the awful things I see, these things are just sort of funny...like the guy/girl coming in buying a cd, bottle of wine, and condoms...I wanna say 'Oh, someones going to have a good night tonight...'}
