Target and Ivan Pavlov


Ummm, so now that I am pretty sure that no one reads my blog anymore I am going to write something crazy and shocking. I have observed for the past 4 or so years, that every time I go to target I have to poo. (I'll just get it out there at the beginning) I will be walking down the aisles with my red cart looking at all the cute little items and usually it happens pretty suddenly I have to go! I usually end up leaving my cart right in the middle of the aisle and just bolting for the bathroom. Then once I am done and feeling better I go back to my cart and finish the rest of a pleasant shoppoing experience. It doesn't matter how frequently or infrequently I visit Target, it's every time. It doesn't happen at the mall, or the grocery store (pee is another story) or at Walmart or the bookstore, just at Target. I don't know why it happens, simply that it does. Tonight I went in and I DIDN'T use the facilities while I was there. Big mistake. It was almost VERY not pretty on the drive home. I learned my lesson. When the forces of Target are in action I must obey or there will be consequences. I wonder what experience in my past is triggering the intestinal contracting when I am over exposed to red shirts, khaki pants and bullseye logos..... hm.... just things to ponder.
