*happy sigh* I just love 3 day weekends.<\/p>\n

I bought my Harry Potter<\/i> tickets today! I’m going with Rob on Thursday (well, if you want to get technical — Friday) night at 12:01am. It’s going to be about 3am by the time we get out and I’ll only be able to get 4 hours of sleep before I have to leave for work but, whatever. I’M GOING TO SEE HARRY POTTER!<\/p>\n

So I had to do some shopping this weekend (was looking for a birthday present for my boss and a dress to wear to an upcoming wedding) and I came across every single one of my shopping pet peeves…<\/p>\n

1. Dressing rooms where all the mirrors are located outside. I don’t want salespeople and other customers getting the first glimpse of me! What if the shirt\/skirt\/dress is all wrong? Not cool.<\/p>\n

2. Strapless bras. I don’t like them but they are a necessary evil in order to wear some tops. No matter what, I have the hardest time getting them to stay up. Stupid contraptions.<\/p>\n

3. Inconsistent sizing, especially within the same brand. This boggles the mind.<\/p>\n

4. Stores that only accept American Express, their house credit card or cash as payment. This is the stupidest (is that a word?) thing I have ever heard of. What if I want to use my VISA or my Mastercard?! Way to be elitest.<\/p>\n

5. Return policies that aren’t really return policies at all. I reserve the right to change my mind.<\/p>\n

Huh. I can’t believe it’s 2:30am and I still have shopping on the brain…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
