All Shopped Out

Yes, we were out today participating in the madness known as Tax Free Weekend. Since all of the boys who work at the store are in ATL w/ Chris for an all-star tournament, I had to hold down the fort. I made the girls come w/ me to keep me company and we closed up shop an hour early. We hit Justice (which was horrifying! Thank God T was w/ us because she held our place in line while KJ & I were still in the dressing room!). KJ got some capri pants (which she can wear until late October down here!), an iCarly t-shirt, a Jonas Brothers t-shirt, and a new pair of jammies. We went to the mall which really wasn't too bad. T bought a pair of skinny jeans in Macy's, 2 cute jackets and some other things at Forever 21, a new backpack and some other stuff I really can't remember. She couldn't find a thing at Belk's and she's still searching for shoes. She didn't find a single appropriate shoe at DSW, Macy's or Belk's. Everything looked like an old lady shoe or a stripper shoe. KJ also got some t-shirts at Limited Too.

I ordered Wicked tickets for me and kJ in Atlanta in October. What a freakin' fiasco. I'm so mad at myself. I should have ordered them when I was on-line late last night. I'm not thrilled w/ our seats but it was the best available for a Sunday matinee. Apparently I already had an account w/ Ticketmaster but couldn't remember the password. So, they sent an notice to my e-mail account. Which normally would have been fine but I was at store and we've been having problems w/ the Internet lines. So, every time I tried to order tickets via Ticketmaster, they kept telling me my password was wrong, I'd have to check my e-mail for the new password, but then the Ticketmaster thingy timed out and I'd loose the good seats I just had! Very, very frustrating. It didn't help that customer's kept coming in. I should have put a CLOSED sign on the door until I got the tickets ordered!
