letters to nowhere

Dear mall next to my house,

Why did you close at 7 pm? You are a mall. It is a Saturday. You should be open so that I can shop after my long day of working (overtime, yay/boo) and exercising. I have Serious Shopping Needs that include cute new shoes, which you thwarted. What kind of self-respecting mall closes at 7 pm on a freaking Saturday!?

Sincerely,
Would-have-been Shopper

Dear Sears,

Why do you have to suck so bad? You were the only store that was left open, so I shopped at you. And you gave me nothing. No shoes. No jackets. No shirts. No purses. Ugly, ugly, slutty, and, oh, ugly again. Whyyyyy?

Sincerely,
Grumpy Non-Slutty Clothes Wearer


Screw it. I'm making cupcakes.

I think nearly all malls close early on Saturdays these days, the reason most quoted being that it becomes a hangout for teenage delinquents and they don't want them hanging around. I think it's that the teens don't buy anything and will generally bug the heck out of the retailers (and shoppers).

As for Sears' selection...yeah, I know. There's some stuff that isn't too bad, but you have to look hard to find it. I'd rather go to JCPenney or Target and not waste the time. :)

That makes sense. I don't really think of this mall as being the kind where annoying teenagers go, but then I don't go there all that often, despite its proximity to my house.

I just want some shoes, goddammit. Cute little wedge heels, because The Manolo (http://shoeblogs.com) said so.
