The Tiny Toiletry Aisle

I finally forced myself to go to Target and pick up some last minute essentials for the trip, and it was SO worth braving the shitty weather simply because of the time I spent on the tiny toiletry aisle! I had so much fun there, which is probably a little sad. They actually had the same stuff I normally use (Dove body wash, Aqua Fresh Extreme Clean, etc), so it shouldn't have been exciting, but apparently miniaturization (is that even a word?) really gets me going... and I think I like to say "tiny toiletry." So sue me - I'm a big dork. Who knew?

Honest to God, I cannot believe that 48 hrs from now I'll be on a plane over the Atlantic, trying my best to sleep (with a little help from my friends - Xanax and BlueCross).

(In truth, I should be sleeping right now, but I'm all fired up because we won trivia, thanks in part to my remembering what year Eli Whitney invented the cotton gin (1794, fyi!). Don't ask me how I pulled that one out of my ass, but it was a moment of sheer inspiration! And our prizes were Pilsner Urquell glasses, which got me even more fired up about Eastern Europe, even if I'm not going to the Czech Republic... cheap, delicious, and plentiful beer awaits us wherever we go, I think!)

Rob and Lady - get to bloggin'!!! It's starting to be Sally blog #2... and I'm much funnier with you than without.
