The scent of divinity


Marcy drug me all over this afternoon. She had to run "a few errands". Such a miser, that girl. Toothpaste at Target, tomatoes at Cash Wise, Dinty Moore at WalMart....and the weather is total crap today. I think we got about 4 inches of snow?? On top of our 32. "Let it snow, let it snow....SOMEPLACE ELSE!!" That's what I think. So we're driving around in the snow, and we end up at Kmart. We soooo got hit on by the dorky/helpful associate. He went to look for her Tide that was on sale, and she had a coupon, so dammit I was determined to make this trip fruitful! He came back empty handed, and said, "Sorry...can we still be friends??" Marcy just said, "I'll think about it." I think I'm desperate, cuz I almost said, "Sure, what's your number?", but Marcy beat me to it. Whew. Dodged that bullet.

He was stocking those saint candles. I love them, they are so kitschy!! To my surprise, Kmart sells an entire line of saintly scents in various candles, scented oil, candle covers, a cross incense holder, and car air fresheners!! Do you know what the Virgin of Guadalupe smells like?? Floral. Very floral. And the "divine power"?? And the "heart of Jesus"?? I'm wondering if heaven smells like that. Like cheap incense. I was hoping it smelled like coffee beans or birthday cake.

Kelley is wondering if Heaven smells like coffee, there should be a Caribou there. I agree.
