Today: Oh, deer.

[tweetmeme source=”elizabethev” only_single=false]I don’t know about you, but I love a good stroll through the Homegoods section at T.J. Maxx.  You never know what might catch your eye.  Or… give you the evil side-eye from the top shelf.

Be afraid. Be very afraid.

Apparently, after his mom was offed, Bambi ended up in the vase aisle.  I thought about sneaking this into my cart, posing it on our mantle at home and trying to pass it off as a serious decoration.   You know, to annoy Nick.  And then I thought about waking in the wee hours of the morning, as I often do, stumbling into the kitchen for a glass of water and squaring off with those menacing eyes (and hooves).  And subsequently having a heart attack.

No prank is worth that (even with a deeply discounted price tag).  On the other hand, if it was sanded and spray painted white… hmm… would that be dear?  I may be back on the hunt.

Also On Tap for Today:

Did you shop this weekend? Spot anything zany?

    Someone in the burbs near Michael’s house has a deer statue similar to that on the edge of their front lawn. Burl thinks it’s a real deer every.single.time we walk him anywhere near it. I don’t know how many times that dog has to bump his nose into the inanimate deer before he clues in.

    I just recently discovered Home Goods and that place is crazy awesome. I didn’t see a deer vase though. It would fit in the homes of many people I went to high school with!

    Haha! I love all the random things you can find there! But yes, totally agree, that could be quite scary to wake up to!

    Lol that is a little freaky. I would definitely buy something like that just to play a prank on my husband, but not if it was going to scare me in the process!
