shopping with Caroline
Caroline and I are in SteinMart; I’ve just finished a long rant about why the micro mini should ABSOLUTELY NOT EVER have made a comeback. EVER. Did you hear me? NO MICRO MINIS.
When I turn around and see . . . a micro mini. Made of bandanas. So I MUST show Caroline, because I’m like that when I shop.
Me: See! Look! What the hell is this?
Caroline: Oh, a handkerchief skirt. Nice.
Me: Seriously, WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?
Caroline (who is a GOOD ten paces away from the Skirt in Question): Is that a skort? It’s a skort, isn’t it?
Me (looking): Uh, let’s see . . . Why yes, it IS a skort. How did you KNOW that?
Caroline: It’s a gift.
Me: I don’t know if I would admit that to too many people.
(Later when I told her about my secret longing for a pair of Take Outs, she said, “But wouldn’t it be weird to be busting a D cup one day and an A cup the next?” And twenty four hours later, I’m still giggling about her use of “busting.”)
(Also, I tried the SteinMart knock off version of the Take Out in my bra last night, and they were TOO BIG. Which is so depressing that I can’t even talk about it outside of these extra parentheses.)

My mom wears skorts, but long ones. (She works at a very fundamental Baptist church. I like to go visit her wearing shorts)

I love that line of boob products. I mean, I love the sound of them and their marketing? Awesome. I haven’t tried any. But I’m tempted.

Ooh, I want some take outs!

In Europe, would they call them “Take-Aways”? Hmm. That might be interesting.

I wish they made the opposite of the Take Out. Seriously. I know you’re going to be all “oh, what AN AWFUL PROBLEM TO HAVE,” but just one day I would like to be busting (or, ahem, not) an A cup.

hey! fun blog.
I had an ephiphany of sorts recently, when I realized that since only one man, supposedly, is ever going to take my clothes off ever again, why *shouldn’t* I embrace padding? it’s not like i’m letting someone down at the end of the evening….;-)
