Sunday night
Its about 8:45 as I start writing this... I have been devouring Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix in preparation for July 16th release of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. I read it before, of course, but I needed a little refresher. I ordered #6 from Amazon and I am hoping they ship as promised... it should arrive on Sat... yay! Anyway, I just finished re-reading it and now I have nothing left to keep me amused at work except for work. zzz.
And I have Bobby Magee by Janis Joplin stuck in my head. Just the chorus. sigh.
Yesterday Leslie and I went to King of Prussia. She wanted to go shopping, but of course I ended up spending a LOT more money than she did. I got a new bathing suit... which accounts for half of the money I spent. I really like the bathing suit, dont get me wrong, and I am pretty sure it fits nicely. Even my mother gave approval. Ethan seemed to like it also... but maybe thats just the close-to-nakedness talking....
Anyway, why are bathing suits so freakin expensive? First of all, you can never buy one size. No one is a "medium" or a "large"... so you are relegated to buying seperates. and of COURSE seperates cost about as much as a 1 piece bathing suit. so your top costs almost as much as buying a whole suit... except its a WHOLE lot less material. How does THAT work anyway? So then you are offered several difference choices for tops and bottoms... silly me, thinking that my chest isnt that big (and it isnt) I try on a medium top... and im busitng out all over. grandmothers all over earth probably dropped dead when I tried them on. but leslie was my wonderful little gopher and got me all sorts of different sizes and shapes. Finally, I find a bottom I really really like... but theres no top to go with it. The tops that went with it didnt really match and they were in styles I didnt like. Sorry, im 24, and im going to wear a 2 piece as long as I can get away with it... which prob wont be much longer. Bathing suit shopping is SO annoying and what you think would look good on you just doesnt. And what looks good on you is ugly. yar. but I think I like the one I got... and hopefully it will last awhile. At least it stays put on my butt, and thats more than I can say for most bathing suits... so as long as I dont bust out of the top, I will be happy with it for awhile and hopefully wont have to buy anything for a few years. ha. yeah right.
its 9:00 now. or 2100 as we lab people like to say. sigh. 2 hours to go.
