I hate the weather and I hate shopping
Mar. 25th, 2006 06:14 pmThis weather is unbelievable. Sunny and near 50 degrees one minute, a white-out snow/ice storm the next. Mother Nature, you are Teh Suck!
Mrs. CB and I decided to engage in a little retail therapy today. I have been searching for the perfect suit for a couple of years now, and we came damn close today. I have the worst figure for clothing. I am tall, but neither slender, nor "husky". I have long arms and a huge rack-this may not seem like a problem to you, but it makes finding a jacket that both looks good and feels comfortable incredibly difficult. And...I am in-between sizes, so even trying to find separates was hard. I was trying to find a blazer/suit jacket that was long enough to cover my ass, but no such luck.
I did wind up with two pairs of mens' Levis...maybe I should try on a guy's suit next time. I bet I'd look sharp with a tie.
Got Stouffers Red Boxes in the oven and I am gonna mix up some margaritas for Mrs. CB to consume while she grades papers. Me? I'ma gonna write. Got two stories on tap and came up with the perfect Bad Girls crossover combo when I was out with
artskat the other night. Looks like I'll be busy and staying out of trouble for a few week, but I wouldn't mind if you all started a Bail Money fund for our trip.
