Banana vs. Gorilla

Dear Reader, this purse suffered a humiliation unlike anything she's ever experienced -including being prodded on the bus or stuffed with smelly sneakers. The Lady, Stinky and their Mom took a day trip to the U.S. to shop for a dress and tortilla shells, of all the things. The fact that Stinky purchased upwards of 1,000 soft tortilla shells for her upcoming social was not what embarassed me. It was the antics the Sisters pulled off in Target's Hallowe'en section.

After oooing and awwing over the charming pet costumes, the Sisters wandered into the adult costume section where the Lady noticed a full-size banana costume, removed from its package. She decided to try it on, 'just for fun'. She implored Stinky to try on a costume too. Stinky chose a gorilla. After the Sisters were fully dressed, they pushed their carts around until they found Mom. She took one look at her grown-up daughters and muttered "Idiots". The Lady -er, Banana- began running up and down the aisles, narrowly missing customers and employees, while Stinky the Gorilla chased her gleefully until they reached the costume aisle once again. Removing the costumes, the Sisters fled the scene, leaving the residents of Grand Forks in a state of...well, North Dakota.
