meanwhile at target...
...i was shopping the other night (and i CANNOT BELIEVE that i did not blog about this before!) and was looking at the clearance rack (because, frankly, i'm a public defender and my daddy is a janitor, er, custodial engineer). i saw a cute t-shirt for $2.24 and thought, i HAVE to buy this. next to me a woman held up a slinky, cute black dress with a sash for a belt.
she showed me the dress and asked if i liked it. i responded that i did and she looked at the rack again and said, "they have one here in small. do you want it?"
immediately, "fat woman" perspective in my mind SCREAMED, "WHO ME? A SMALL?"
i had only one option: buy the dress. i mean, the only other "small" thing i have been offered is fries.
that made my night. the next morning, i wore the dress to court with a black blazer and was complimented a million times over...
then "certain someone" saw me...and but for the grace of God, it might have been all over....
yay!

Ok, you thought your Target experience was BOMB...get a load of this one! So, I'm in Ross, right? Well, I was trying on this baby doll type top and for some reason I felt that it gave me the appearance of a developing pregnancy. Ain't feelin the maternity look you know? So I'm outside of my dressing stall twirling about trying to convince myself that it may be a fashion possibility, and this older woman is also out there looking at herself in a dress. Well, she's like..."that's really cute on you." So, in amazement I respond, "do you think that it makes me look pregnant??!!" And she laughs aloud and says, "Pregnant?! NO! I wish my stomach was that flat." FLAT??! WHUUTT? I was like, "HA! Believe me, your stomach is flatter than mine." I couldn't believe it! Me? With a flat stomach? Total and pure deception is the culprit. But hey, I wore a huge grin all the while in the dressing room as I change back into my cloths and all the way up to the counter as I made my purchase.
