grace in small things: forty two
Other places edition, because summer is kicking my ass. In a good way, of course.
Nichols Hills Drug Store, July 2009
1. Hair advice for pixies! The cut, not the magical creatures. Although I suspect they need a lot of hair advice.
2. Ever wanted to drive old Route 66 in an RV? No, me either. But I did write about it.
3. I also wrote about wearing a slip, and 16 months later, the post is STILL getting comments. From crazy people, apparently. Enjoy!
4. Neutrogena Waterguard Kids Sunblock Lotion. Smells like lemons! Which is great for that part of the summer when you start to feel like every waking moment involves getting ready for the pool.
5. A chocolate milkshake, handmade, the old fashioned way, and shared with a reluctant six-year-old.

Oh, the DRUG STORE. Very envious right now.
(Also, the crazed slip comments just made my day. HAHAHHAAAAAA)

Doesn’t Charlie know that he’s about to drink the best.thing.ever?
Susan says: He was reluctant about the sharing, not about the shake. He was totally psyched about the shake.

Doh! *that* makes much more sense!

Oh man those slip comments are hilarious. I had to read that one from the divorced male a few times…

OMG the slip comments.

I really hope the last few comments are some sort of elaborate joke, because OH MY GOD, WOW.
I think my boyfriend would recommend I commit myself if I started talking about the ‘triple threat’ anonymous mentioned, or stood in my yard in hurricane force winds.

I don’t think it’s a joke, but I *do* think some folks need to take their meds. Or take a nap. Or take a break from the Internet.
Or all three.
(Seriously, the comments! just! keep! coming!)

oh dear. Your slip people are quite a community, aren’t they?

Well I’m glad Kathy told me I’m not old for my time and that I am a classy lady. I can assure you I do not like the thought of my slip showing!
Those comments are too much. Apparently my (innocent) question started quite a discussion for you, Susan.
(and for those wondering, Target of all places has the best slips. Go figure.)

Crist, every time one of those wacky comments lands in my inbox, I think of you. Fondly. Promise.
I was just looking at a shaper slip at Target (pronounced tar-jay) the other day. I may still buy it. But I’m not telling the Internet about it, because hoo boy.
Cuh-rayzee.

Oh good lord I did not need to read the slip comments. Cuh-razeee.

I love the burgers at the drugstore!, Not as good as earl’s but damn good.

What’s he reluctant about? It’s a CHOCOLATE MILK SHAKE… if he doesn’t want it, I’ll take it!!

Who knew that this was the direction Friday Style would go in? Also, I’m a little freaked out by my own slips now.

My brain just exploded. I just HAD to go and read the slips post again to see the newest comments. Wow.

There are no words.
