sunday haze

first, happy birthday to untitled. here is a tribute picture. hopefully the party this weekend will be as joyous as this eve. ha.

yesterday untitled and i went on one of our usual sunday shopping excursions. i was feeling a tad under the weather. but once i gulped down a nice. refreshing. regular fountain coke. i was ready for our trip. we were browsing. but had a couple of things in mind. 1. birthday celebration outfits. 2. a hat for myself for the upcoming derby day party. after a lot of misses we went to victoria's secret with untitled's coupon. it was there i had the life sucked out of me.

we walk in and are immediately attacked by two sales girls. their first question is what size are you? and have we tried out the new memory foam bra. um. no and no. so already whelmed. we walk through the store some more. we both found a new bra to try on. untitled went for the memory foam. i found another. when we walked into the dressing room. the sales girl. a new one. asked what size i selected. i was so uncomfortable at this point. i didnt like the bra. when i was leaving. attacked again.

sales girl #3: did those work for you?
me: no (disappointed face)
sg#3: what size are? do you want to try a new style?
me: no thats okay. i am fine.
sg#3: have you tried the new memory foam bra?
me: no, but really its okay. i have heard all about it.
and then i fled. only to be greeted by sales girl #1 again. this time spraying me with her stupid perfume. it was awful. untitled told me later i missed sg#3 harrassing someone else in the dressing room about panty hose. sg#3: how tall are you? how much to you weigh?

these are sensitive subjects. no one should be ridiculed like this. and it proves what an awful place vs can be. i was looking forward to a nice. relaxing. sunday afternoon of shopping. note to self. never step foot in vs again. unless i am fully prepared.

GF08: after shopping. no energy to enjoy the beautiful day yesterday. i read my book a little on the front porch. almost finished. tonight. hoping for no showers. and a nice long walk.
