It's sad, really.

So, there I was at the Wal-mart ...



I'd put the kids to bed, grabbed my grocery list, and now there I was.



Lookin' at the toothpaste.



And then ...



my pupils dilated



my body went numb



and I found myself on the Christmas aisle.



Didn't seem to matter that what they had out was hideous and tacky. (no offense Wal-mart Christmas decoration designers)



It just sucks me in. Can't explain it.



I was this close to buying a Disney princess commemorative ornament.
