The Umm... Toy Debacle

I went to a "toy" party with my girlfriends ... you know, a TOY party. We drank, we laughed, we were absolutely shocked at some of the items to be had. Of course, we all ordered some toys for our respective homes. Imagine my surprise when I checked my bank account and there was a withdrawal for $1210.94. Ouch! Now, I like toys as much as the next girl, but I certainly didn't order a freaking pirate's chest full of them!!

I had to call the bank to find out what the charge was for because it didn't say. Can you imagine that conversation? It was AWESOME! Then, I had to call the toy lady to get the original amount refunded and charged correctly. It was a great day!

I also skipped the audition. Sooooooo, not ready for rehearsals again.

Have a great week!

I'd say if you bought that much tupperware(that's what we Mamas call it in front of the kids), you'd have a lot more friends once they found out.

I would ask for some free stuff too. A mistake like that could really have messed up your account for a while. Definitely get some free stuff.

Oh my god! LOL.

I was embarrassed when the lady took my toy out of the box and put batteries in it to make sure it worked before I took it. I almost felt violated!

HA HA HA - I always knew those toy parties could be dangerous.. poor A~ Did you know vibrators are illegal to purchase in the state of Texas? ( I think you have to buy more than 2 or 3 to be in violation). You are lucky you weren't arrested!
