I'm getting a cat from the foster care system.

Or at least, that's what my mother says. Heh. :)

So I got to leave work a couple of hours early last night, which means that I got to start my loooooong weekend a little earlier. YAY! *flails* Then I came home and slept for two whole hours before getting back up for shopping. So now I have a few new shirts, a new notebook, hair dye, and candy for the road trip.

For the record, the total amount of candy I'm bringing? From Gertrude Hawk, I picked up strawberry poppers, cinnamon apple dreams, rum truffles, pumpkin pie smidgens, white chocolate raspberry truffles (which may have to be pried from my claws ... GRRR), and marshmallow chocolates in one bag (none of them have nuts in them, but they make them on machines that make candy with nuts, so I figured better safe than sorry and am keeping them separate), and in the other bag, two pounds of Swedish fish and, in Jensen's name, two and a half pounds of gummi bears.

HEEEE. Hope everybody's got a sweet tooth. ;)

I'm horribly tempted to dip into them today, because last night at work I learned that Halloween is an evil day and Target doesn't support our troops or our government (... ooo-kay) and I think I ground my poor teeth down to nothing trying desperately not to start an argument.

And now to go put minutes on my phone for the con.

Er? Do you work someplace religious? Or do they just hate costumes? :)

Wah.. wait.. what? Huh? Is this a commentary on their charitable giving programs?

I think your work is... confused.

Well, my co-workers, I should say. Halloween being an evil day got the smackdown from me, but the woman who said the thing about not shopping at Target because they didn't support the troops threw pretty much everyone in the break room, particularly when she didn't bother to back it up with facts.

You should have told her about Target's ritual sacrifice of infants to appease the dark lord. And goats. There could be goats.

Candy. Candy is better than alcohol!

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

Ah, yes, I love the sacrifices. They're so much fun, and the popcorn they sell there is delicious.

Honestly, if you're going to try not to shop at Target, arguing that it's an evil, greedy corporate entity works a hell of a lot better.

*is wondering if the car will run on hyper as well as gas*

*blinks* Your co-worker is... umm, yeah. *scratches head* Surfing in Nebraska comes to mind.

MMM SWEDISH FISH AND GUMMI BEARS. YOU WIN.

I'm bringing Three Musketeers and those like-candy-corn-but-shaped-like-pumpkins things :D:D We're going to be SO JAZZED ON SUGAR, whoo!!

Jared will be pissed that he missed out on your candyfest.

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

Dude, if he wants to come to my house and share my candy, he is perfectly welcome. ;)

Unfortunately that reasoning would leave you with very few places to shop... The goats work better because you don't need to be hindered by actual logic, so you can boycott stores or not as suits you.
