I heard angels singing

I saw.

I drooled.

I entered.

And then I told the Fake Friendly woman who greeted me at the door that I did NOT need a shopping bag because I "wasn't going to buy anything" because "I was just looking".

I might as well have said "No thank you, because I plan on getting naked and and putting my vagina on display next to the Philosophy products and I need both hands free to do that! But THANKS!" Because beyotch was STUNNED.

Apparently, people don't walk into Sephora just "to look."

And can I just say, after spending a few minutes in there? I totally get it.

It ALMOST made me wish I hadn't quit my job. You know, for like, 5 minutes, because... GREAT PUMPKIN FACE MASKS!.

But seriously, folks. Wiping Gabby's ass while she cheers me on like this... "YAAAAY bamamabamma!!!" is SO much better than any great pumpkin face masks.

I think I'm in love with buildings in Cali.

And sephora? I've always wanted to check one out, but we don't have them in Canada yet (I don't think so anyway)

Oooohh I'm drooling just looking at the picture....

But, I'd probably take the baby too

THANK YOU for posting this! I'm getting really bored with people pimping the overpriced cosmetics they don't really need.

That, and I, too, feel that the cutie patootie asleep in my lap is far superior to a jar of some sort of magic goo...

Heh. I was in a Sephora last weekend so I could use a gift card I'd received for Christmas. Man, that place is fun, but it's also sensory overload! That said, I can totally see why someone would go just to look -- make that smell. ;^) It's fun to try on perfume and stuff, but I always want to go away for a while and see how the stuff smells after I've been wearing it for a few hours. I almost never buy perfume on the spot. Now, pumpkin face masks may be another story...

About Y
My name is Y, but you can call me "Jesse's girl." I am an Aerobic Dancer and have mastered many moves, but the one I am the most proud of is "The Monkey." I have three kids. ALL FROM THE SAME DAD (Because, did you know someone actually asked me that question?) A 15 year old son, a 11 year old son and a 4 year old daughter who was not planned but who is loved more than words could ever express. I am addicted to Starbucks, reality TV and to getting really good deals through coupons and "club member" savings (Please, respect The Costco Card.) I am extremely competive and if you don't believe me, just ask my husband about the time I sold him out to win a game of Taboo. If you're waiting for the part where I speak of my love for walks on the beach or slow dancing in the rain, you're going to be disappointed because my idea of a good time usually involves things like "burping contests" and "doing The Worm".
