Wiggle dances -- NORDSTROMS - 9/12/2011 7:17:47 PM

Status: offline 		Okay, as some people know, i am from Chicago - not only growing up near Oakbrook Mall but actually living in the City wherin the Mile was a walk away or hop on the L.

I am now transplanted in Northern TN -- i.e., i am 30-45 minutes from one decent mall in Nashville Area called Green Hills.  But i muster up the energy and i take my happy butt to Green Hills to get a semblance of decent stores.  Yes i am 7 miles from a mall but Macy's Dillards, Sears and JC Penny are like the BOMB lol at that mall.  Yes, when i got down here i called my friends and cried because i had to drive to walk to the store

But i just have to tell everyone!!  WE HAVE A NORDSTROMS!!! It's opening this week in Green Hills.  I have been waiting forever. 

Okay, not sure if people can understand my excitement lol my friends back home can't as they don't have far to go to have decent shopping lol.  So i thought i would share in a place wherein someone may feel my pain lol and excitement at this awesome opening.

angel    okay and scene! 

Sorry i just am really excited so you all have to get the news.

Enjoy shopping there!! It's a truly wondrous place.

Status: offline 		Nope not from Seattle and always have called it Nordstroms lol I don't know why we automatically make it plural.
I think it sorta just flows off the tongue that way -- Just like JC Penney by most people i know is called JC Penneys or Penneys.

Any hoo, i will enjoy it, i am tired of shopping there online or only when i go home.  There is nothing like just browsing through the stores. 

Lord, i am homesick lol.  angel

Actually i checked my history from my address bar and realize i type it Nordstrom but think of it as Nordstroms.

When they came downstairs, they sold for $5. I went to the Rack one time & bought a whole wardrobe for $50.

You'll wait forever at Green Hills just to find a parking space. My girlfriend was leaving Green Hills and two vultures saw her and were poised to get the parking space. So poised that they actually penned her into the spot. So she shut off the car and started Facebooking on her cell phone and waited for them to get the memo. The two morons were oblivious to the fact that she didn't have room to back out. I cannot imagine a trip to that mall being on anyone's short list of fun things to do.

Status: offline 		Yeah, i rarely have an issue finding parking at Green Hills.  What hurts is the 30-45 minute drive depending on traffic lol or if its around holidays --- the traffic is horrid and sometimes takes double that just to get in and out because its one of the only decent malls in the Nashville area.

I never in my born days remotely thought i would actually find stores i took for grant it most of my life not physically available to me.  I am excited also because The container store is coming to Green hills also.  I just wish they would branch out to other malls but i know why they don't.
