Gotta Cut Footloose!

OH MY GOODNESS - did I ever have fun at Target today. Husband, quit reading this now!!

I found myself with an extra hour in my morning, a friend was going to meet with me and had to cancel, and it was too early to go pick up the munchkin from school - so where does any self-respecting mommy go when she has an hour to kill? Why, Target, of course!

I meandered up and down the aisles, not really needing anything just happy to gaze and wander through the merchandise without a screaming four year old to direct my cart.

I looked through the cosmetics, the cards, the candles, the cookery and the cups. ( how's that for alliteration?). I then found myself in the movie section and all of sudden I was hit with such delight.

There to my wondering eyes were movies from the 80's - yep - my favorite era - and even better they were on sale, hold on ... this is good... for $5. Yes, five measly dollars could translate into Footloose, Top Gun, She's Having a Baby, Rain Man, Pretty in Pink, Planes, Trains and Automobiles, Some Kind of Wonderful and many other great movies of that "totally awesome" decade. I don't think I need to tell you that I came home with at least a couple of them.... I managed to restrain myself and only got two - and since I love bacon, Kevin Bacon that is, I chose Footloose and She's Having a Baby. Two classics. I also found The Commitments, which is an awesome movie, who can't resist a few hours filled with some kids from Dublin, Ireland and their garage band. It is a great movie and an even better soundtrack.

Target is still my favorite store!!

When I finally came up from my immersion in all things 80's, I found that my wallet was a little slimmer, but now my movie collection is busting with some really great picks. I just need to find some time to sit and gaze at the screen for a few free hours.

Yipee for me!!

Hope you had a great afternoon as well. What did you do?
