Do I look any different?

Tuesdays are extremely tedious for me.

I work Monday, Wednesday, and Friday and go to school Tuesday and Thursday mornings. I'm done by 12:30 and Hubby doesn't get home until 7:30. That leaves me to my own devices for 7 hours. Thursdays aren't bad because I go do laundry at my parents' house. That kills some time. But Tuesdays just drag and drag and drag. There's only so much homework, cleaning, or tv watching I can do in those 7 hours before I go crazy.

So I go shopping.

I've never been a huge fan of shopping. I don't necessarily even buy anything while I'm out. I just like to be out. I've been looking for a new dress to wear for Valentine's Day so that's given me a purpose to my shopping recently. Yesterday was no different. But it WAS a little different. I've never had such great customer service, ever. And it wasn't just one store. It was every store I visited. I felt like a celebrity!

I stopped in one store and looked around at dresses. The girl assigned to that department was really helpful. Pulling things down I couldn't reach (because I'm under 5 feet tall so that's nothing new for me), and when I was leaving she even asked if she could help me find something I liked better. I went to the next store and actually found a dress I liked. I went to the register and the lady was very friendly and helpful. I'm so not used to that. Usually when I'm being rung up the person barely talks to you, or they're talking to somebody else, which I find extremely rude.

But the biggest shock was when I went to the shoe store. I wanted to find shoes to match my dress because I didn't have any the right color. I didn't even ask but the girl came right up and started helping me find shoes that would match my dress. I was shocked. I've never had someone in a shoe store be so friendly and helpful. It was amazing. I think they should all get raises!
