Target... where people wear khaki bottoms and red tops.

So today in Target we were passing the toy ailses when a guy quickly passed us to catch up to his wife who was pushing two little ones in a Target cart.  She also happens to be dressed in a very cute, colorful, floor length maxi dress.  She actually caught my attention.  I was thinking that I was happy to see a mom take the time to throw on a cute dress and a little makeup.  I know how hard it can be to "look cute" when you are full of baby barf, trying to change a diaper and your husband is sitting in the car with the AC on honking for you to hurry up.  So anyway... upon catching up to his pretty wife the dorky husband tells her (with a loud I'm so cool and I am going to put you down in front of all these people to make myself feel better tone)  "Where were you?  I could hardly see you since your dress is so bright it blends in with all the toys."  As she was shooting him a "that's not very nice/you hurt my feelings glare" I flipped in his direction and said "THAT'S FUNNY CAUSE YOU LOOK LIKE YOU WORK AT TARGET." (oops... did I just say that out loud?)  He stopped, looked at me and then looked down at the outfit he had on... a red collared shirt and khaki shorts.  Then lucky for me since I was thinking I was going to get beat up in front of my father in law, husband and 3 small children... he started laughing.  His shoulders slumped and he said "That was a good one."  Ohhh sometimes I am funny.  :P  So... Husbands if you can... try to be a little nicer to your wives.  Her dress was cute.  I am sorry if it made her look like a milf and made you insecure.
