Today Dx and I were attempting to whip through Target to pick up a few items. We ended up wandering around like children lost at an amusement park.
Searching for the electronics department, Dx and I began cursing Target. We were really bitching and moaning.
"It's like somebody came into your house and rearranged all your drawers so you can't find anything." Dx complained.
"I know. I can't find anything. We totally need a map. This place is a disaster."
Right as these words were falling out of my mouth, we noticed two older white guys decked in red and khaki. Clearly Target Bigwigs. Our whining stopped them in their tracks.
One of the guys asks, "Can we help you find something?"
"Yes, where are the electronics? We need a map!"
The guy genteelly says, "Well, there'd be a map, but the layout changes EVERY DAY and it would immediately become obsolete."
So I go ahead and ask, "What are you doing, anyway? And why didn't you email me?"
"We're putting in thirty refrigerated cases so that you can do your grocery shopping at Target."
"Oh. Well, when are you going to be done?"
"In a few weeks. Sorry about the inconvenience. The electronics are now way at the back of the store."
"You mean like at Walmart? Put in the back so they're harder to steal? Okay, well, thanks."
I finally got to officially complain to The Man. I feel as though I've voiced the opinions and complaints of the people. I am an American, and you will not rearrange my Target.

You're going to like the grocery shopping part though. "Bye Dax! I'm going to get some milk." And some new shoes and a magazine.
That really wasn't very smart of them to have the ipods right by the exit, was it?
And ditto what Celia said. I used to have SuperTarget in Utah and I miss it.
Soon the world will be run by men in red and khaki.

I totally went to target the other day and I was so ticked off I nearly cursed and said like heck or something equally vile. But the Target in Walnut Creek not only is all switched around they are in the middle of it. Empty isles and mixed up merch, the movies were where the sports equip used to be and the toys are where the music once was.
By the time I left I was moments from crawling into one of the center of the round men's pants display in the fetal position rocking back and forth sucking my thumb seeking solace. Instead I purchased a double pack of cinnimon toast crunch on sale and got the hell oops heck out of there.
