Time to Throw in the Towel

Erica and I went to the mall today.  I hate going to the mall.  (I know, I am as shocked as you are.)  There is something in the air there that gives me a terrible headache.  I call it my “mall headache.”  I get the same feeling every time I go.  Along with the headaches, I experience a very noticeable shortness-of-breath followed by extreme fatigue. (It is a different type of shortness-of-breath than I experience when I find something really cool on clearance at Target.)  It is so annoying that if I even think about the mall I start to feel the “mall headache/shortness-of-breath” coming on.

It must be something in the air.  I know that Abercrombie and Fitch pipes their fragrance into the mall right outside their store.  That might have something to do with it.

Before I give up on the mall all-together, I think I am just going to do a “go to one store” type of thing.  Like today for example, all we really needed to do was go to American Eagle.  Next time that is all I am going to do.

Better yet, Neil’s new office is located in one of the buildings at the PGA entrance to the mall.  I’ll just send him. 

Do any of you experience the “mall headache?”  I am not being sarcastic…it really is a physical thing that happens to me every time, and once I get home, it takes a few hours to recover.

    I get a headache if I don't go to the mall. Which reminds me it is Clinique bonus time at Bloomingdales!

    Just the thought of it gives me a headache…..the crowds, the smells, the lights, the frustration of not finding what your looking for and having to go to dozens of stores to try to find something similar…..yuck. =/
