Cuteness

So Tim and I went to Target tonight. And as is the fashion I bought more than I should. But oh well. I bought my first Christmas present in the process. Go me! Anyway...

Much time was spent with the Halloween decorations. Sadly the store we went to didn't have nearly as much as the one I usually visit. But during our walking we passed the books. And of course they had some seasonal kids' books out. I took a look, because I love books and I fully intend to pass that love of books to my own children one day. But in the mean time, I'll pass it to my Tad. And something caught my attention...

Goodnight Goon.

Yes. It's a "petrifying parody" of Goodnight Moon. Now unless you've been living under a rock, you know that Goodnight Moon is an insta-classic. Every child should own it and have it read to them enough times to memorize it. Tad loves it and it's a regular bedtime story. So I had to have the parody. I just read it right now.

So. Effing. Cute.

I can't wait for Tad to come over so we can read it together.

Target + Halloween

Two of my favorite things. Ever. Coming together every year. *sigh*

So we went to Target last night. And as we tend to do, we got distracted and bought more than we meant to. Which means...

Halloween stuff.

That's right friends. The stores have finally started putting out their Halloween fun things! And this year I'm especially excited about Target. You know that little brown furry monster guy? He's basically a rectangle with arms and legs? His name is Domo. And he's Target's little Halloween mascot for the year! Tim bought me a fuzzy Domo bag. And it had Domo candy bracelets!

Expect me to be spending a looooot of money there in the next couple months...

Really Target? Really?

Soooo... I usually love Target commercials. But that could be because I love Target with every fiber of my being.

So imagine my dismay today when I did not enjoy a commercial. I actually was annoyed by it to be honest. Why you ask? Did they offend me? No.

They used the Jonas Brothers to sing the song and star in the commercial.

Really Target?

Now you might be thinking, how are the Jonas Brothers any different than the High School Musical kid? Um, they're HUGELY different. The Jonas Brothers have become ubiquitous. And I don't understand it.

They appeared on Dancing With the Stars last season. Perez Hilton has this annoying obsession with them and posts about them almost daily. They were in that lame-o movie Camp Rock. And sorry, but I just don't get what's so great about them. They're odd looking and not attractive (go ahead and wish bad things on me Angie, but they aren't).

So really Target? You had to buy into the hype and shove them down our throats more??? Ugh. I'd break up with you, but we both know I'll be back. Your dollar bins, your cute clothes, your great prices... *sigh* But you will be sleeping on the couch for a few nights.
