Wyoming is the new New York.. and other crazy adventures.

Sunday morning I left my house, on my way to Casper, WY.. or so I thought! Six hours lately I discovered I was in fact in New York. That's what my phone told me. I listen to everything my phone tells me (Just to clarify, my phone was not actually talking to me). So for those of you that have not been to "New York", my travel pictures are on the next post down (as they were being divas and had to be in a post of their own)! You'll get the full affect if you sit in front of your computer for the next 6 hours and watch them over and over and over again. I hope you enjoy!

I had the great joy of going to Wyoming with Nicolyn, the store manager of our Layton location. She is a hoot!! I'd like to share with you now my favorite "Nicolyn-isms".

* Walking into a gas station in Montana; Nicolyn: "K, you cannot judge me for the question I am about to ask you." Clerk nods his head looking a little dazed and confused. Nicolyn: "What state am I in?" Clerk: "Um.. insanity?" Nicolyn: "No, like what state?" Clerk: "You're in Montana." Nicolyn: "Oh darn! I was hoping I was in Wyoming."
* After struggling for half an hour trying to get a room at the hotel we had a reservation for, we get up to the second floor and our "room number" does not exist. Nicolyn proclaims "He booked us outside! Idiot!"
* Being her tour guide in Wyoming; Kara: "And on your left there is Independence Rock!" Nicolyn: "Sweet!! I've heard of that! Now I can say I've seen it!"
* And one that is not part of this Wyoming trip, but still my favorite.. "Normally I'd say 'piss off' but I don't want to be smote!"

Potato Lotion

Yup, you read that right!! Potato Lotion!
I went to Idaho to train a new store manager for a few days. While searching one of their MANY Walgreens (I swear the state of Idaho is sponsored by Walgreens. Oh, and Subway.) I found this interesting little souvenir. Now, I don't necessarily think they should be allowed to call it potato lotion when potato starch is the 11th item down on a list of 20 ingredients. I mean, that's the bottom half of the list! But alas, Idaho does have famous potatoes so I guess they can do what they want!

For JoAnna..

Due to many requests I am going to explain my post about throwing the baby out of the stroller and I promise you that I am not exagerating. All of this really happened.

The other day I had many crazy clients in my store and one of them was the creme de la creme. I approached this said client and asked her if she would like any help. Well right as I asked this her 9 month old baby slid right out of the stroller and smacked her head on the floor. Rather then immediately picking up the screaming baby she turns to me and says, 'Now look what you did!'. Apparently it was my fault that she chose not to strap her child in. I stared at her and said 'Excuse me?' and she replied with, and this is no lie, 'Well you distracted me and my baby just flew out of the stroller'. I was so taken aback by this womans idiocy that I just walked away.

Oh the joys of working with pregnant women...

WARNING!


I throw babies out of strollers!


Yup, you read that right. And I will death stare you if your child jumps on a table and throws everything onto the floor. And to top it off, I sell "crappy" clothing. I am an evil, evil person.
It would probably be best if you stayed far away.

Fleeting Thought Before Going to the Land of Potatoes..




I wonder why baking products (such as eggs, butter, etc.) cannot be purchased individually. If I wanted to sit down and make banana bread and I was out of eggs, I'd have to buy a full dozen eggs. I'll never get through all those eggs! Why can't we walk into the store and buy one egg? Or a single stick of butter? Sure, inflation will probably become a factor. One egg would probably cost like 50 cents and a full dozen is like $2, but the point is that I am stuck with 11 eggs that I am not going to use!!


"I would like to buy this egg, and could you double bag it?"
