abby and i went to target yesterday during the ohio state game, which turned out to be a blow-out (the game....not target). even if half your damned players are suspended and your coach is about as new as unborn triplets, it sure as shootin' oughta be a blow-out.......when you're playing akron high school.
so, anyway, we went to target - which was a slight bending of the medical restrictions under which abby remains. which is to say, it was a total bending, but we justified it nicely: abby rode in a scooter, i pushed the cart, and i did all the lifting and reaching. and i did all the paying. which, come to think of it, is precisely the protocol we follow when she's not under medical restrictions!
so, anyway, we went to target and bought thee most bizarre assortment of stuff that i do believe anyone in the history of target has ever bought at target......nipples (yes, you read that right), hangers, deodorant, breast milk storage bags, plastic bins, roasted almonds, shampoo, another shampoo, baby blankies with little animal heads attached to them which sounds disgusting, i know, but are actually quite cute, 3 books, 2 games, and a bottle of water. oh! and a slide rule. (just kidding! but when i re-read the list, it didn't sound bizarre enough, so i threw the slide rule in for, um, good measure!) LOL!
and then we schlepped all this stuff home and by "we" i mean "me" and then the kids got all excited and started running around like crazy people and the toys went flying in this direction and that direction and it wasn't even Christmas.
and the triplets aren't even here yet.
