Ahem. Dear mall establishments...

...can you please add another elevator so those of us with strollers don't have to wait in an enormous line just to go to another floor and continue shopping in your fine establishment. I mean, we're not supposed to take the stroller up or down the escalator (per the signs posted) so we are forced to stand in line waiting...and waiting...and waiting. Oh, and dear all the able-boddied people waiting for the elevator...walk down to the escalator and leave the elevator for those with wheelchairs and strollers! Sheesh! I mean seriously. Oh, and dear Penn Square Mall...please get rid of all the annoying vendors in the middle of the mall halls who are trying to get my attention to buy their products. I'm at the mall, not the market. I don't want what you're selling, if I did, I would stop and talk to you! So, nice ladies trying to sell your hand products that I could buy at Wal-Mart for WAY cheaper, please stop asking to look at my hands. And to the annoying cell phone salesmen, stop asking me what cell phone service I use because I am not going to switch to yours! It's like I can't even enjoy a leisurly stroll at the mall without being hassled to purchase wares I don't want to buy. The. End.

Um hello? Did I write this post? This is the exact same set of thoughts I have EVERY TIME I VISIT THE MALL!!!!! Luckily I've found the elevators "hidden" in all the department stores, Dillards, Sears and JCP all have those so I try to take those when I can but you a right, what a pain!! SHERRY

I guess you people are just a lot sweeter looking than I (in more way than one) b/c I don't get pestered by these people. Must be the scowl I am surprised to feel on my face way too often.
