Rant

Rant #1
Dear Tarjay.  First off, you know I love you right?  Second, part of the reason I love you is that you have cute clothes...specially on that 75% off rack.  I was at said rack last week and found an adorable black dress and could hardly believe it when A. Said dress fitted (EUREKA!) and B. Said dress was $6.99.  Sure - it was sad last week when a tomato squirted (unprovoked) on it and I had to wash it the first day I wore it, but the saddest part is that $6.99 does not buy you quality clothing anymore (gasp).
This morning I was rushing to clothe myself and get to work I grabbed the bargain dress and put it on with a cute unsom, grey cardigan and grey pumps - rushed out to the car to drive a million miles an hour to get to work and I noticed something I never notice.....a breeze...on the backs of my knees.
Yes Tarjay.  $6.99 dress HAS SHRUNK....curses.

I love metered onramps.  You know - the kind where in an effort to keep traffic flowing they stop each single passanger car for a nano second and then let you proceed.  Usually they types of sitches also have a second outside lane for carpools (ie two plus peoples) - they peoples dont need to pause, they can just speed on.  You see the genuis in this right?  Ok so picture me last night, Im in Travis, we are headed home and we slow up waiting for the light to turn green at the on ramp.  Though this is no nano-second, I have time to look for a lipstick - I check the light, its still red and then something caught my eye to the left.  Mmmhmmm. Its a Buick Skylark full of seniors.  Parked.  Next to me.        IN THE CARPOOL LANE WITH NO EFFING LIGHT.  Othere car pool persons (who are used to the luxury of not stopping) are now behind the skylark.  HONKING.  Of course what is the natural thing for the skylark to do?  Do the "yeek" face and move on.  Nope, not in this case.  This brain box motions in the rear view mirror to the traffic light which is still red.  Fortunatly the light turned green shortly there after.  I think the skylark thought she should turn it into a drag race then, she was pretty quick off the mark I must say - but never fear, Travis was soon in front and taking us safetly home.  People are weird.  Not you, but others.  Know what I mean?

  1. deep breath, Fiona! actually, Oliver and I went there yesterday, looked at those cute summer dresses; even BEFORE washing, they would hardly cover my behind; and i can't have Oliver being scared of what his Nona looks like with her butt hanging out. ;)
