Beware! You are approaching a "DUH" statement. Proceed with caution...

IT IS REALLY HARD TO SHOP FOR PANTS!


See, New York and Co. was having a really big pants sale the other day when I happened to be passing through the mall picking up a gift for Reya. Buy one pair, get one pair half off. Plus, lots of pants were on clearance! And, I can't pass looking at things on sale. So, I looked, because I really needed some dress pants. Now, they had lots of dress pants, but I couldn't find any that fit just right for me. Too long, too big, etc. You ladies know what I'm talking about. Nor could I find anything else. Anything else that I wanted to buy that day, anyways. They had some really cute skirts, but I wasn't in a skirt buying mood that day. For me, clothes shopping is all about the mood I'm in. Browsing & Buying mood, that is.

(P.S. It wasn't a day of serendipities.)

On the other hand, and a random side note, I am always in the mood to buy a book. My latest buys: (during a fun excursion to Books-A-Million):

From Beruit to Jerusalem by Thomas L. Friedman
A History of Pirates: Blood & Thunder on the High Seas by Nigel Cawthorne

BANANA SPLIT!!!

adam could have had one, too, if only he had realized that finding a laundromat in his complex was, in fact, serendipidous.

hahahahahahahahaaaaaaaaa.

(maybe you'll be nice and share?)

I know EXACTLY how you feel.
It's the mood. No matter what the female does. She has to be in the 'Mood' to do it. Whatever it may be.
