Thanks. I'll wait.

Lauren and I were shopping at the mall yesterday and I noticed that across all stores we went to (primarily department stores and clothing stores) there was far less stock than the last time I was there. American Eagle looked like a boutique, with sparse racks and displays. Dillards, Macy's... both had fewer racks and lots of room to roam around between them. It was without exception, a pared down version of the mall. A sign of the times, I think. Inflation is crazy right now, and it is reflected in less purchasing and less stock. (And not being able to find the perfect pair of denim shorts! Grr.)

At the limited version of Starbucks at Target...

Lauren (looking at the menu): They have "Hey, Wear a Condom." Luke always gets that.
Me: What did you say?
Lauren: Caffe Americano. Luke always gets that.
Me: Ahh.
