She’s back. . .
The mostly naked lady was back today! She had trousers on this time - black and white striped ones. Big black and white stripes. BUT she was wearing the SAME purple lacy bra. I mean, it’s pretty and all, and don’t get me wrong - I have been known to wear the same bra more than one day in a row. Like maybe about 6 or 7 days or maybe 2 if you think that’s gross. But anyway, I might choose differently if I knew people were going to be LOOKing at it. Geeze, lady. Plus, I feel like laying in the sun would make it all sweaty, in which case even I wouldn’t wear it again the next day. I don’t know. Some of me thinks “Good for you, lady - you just lay your mostly naked self out there, and also - nice bra!,” but then some of me thinks, “that’s just weird.”
Old School Freight Train did in fact appear on World Cafe today, and they were excellent, so sorry for those of you who missed out. I actually think their levels were messed up a little, but anyway.
One more item of note - I went grocery shopping again today, and I’ve covered how I feel about that. BUT, they have these sales here - 3 for 2 it’s called. You get 3 of the same item for the price of 2 of that item. So basically buy 2 get one free. Thing is, how often do you want THREE of something? I mean, two is one thing. Well two is two things, but you know. THREE is something else entirely. So Andy and I needed toothpaste and toothpaste was on 3 for 2. I went for it. I mean, it’s free toothpaste, and it’s not as if we won’t USE the toothpaste or as if we’ll find extraordinarily CHEAP toothpaste somewhere between now and when we need it again, so in theory I should be really excited that it was on sale, BUT no. I actually feel kinda jipped. I feel like I was conned into buying TWO thingies of toothpaste instead of the one that I need now. I mean really - I couldn’t buy ONE. That’s just sillyness. So if anyone needs three tubes of toothpaste (or three bottles of sheer blonde shampoo, while we’re at it), Sainsbury’s down the hill is the place for you. Sale’s on until the 9th of July I think. Go to it. Enjoy.
For the record, I’m only commenting because Tiffany said “where’s your comment, we need you”. Aww Tiff I need you too!!
The bra story was great (I already told you this on IM though). Speaking of bras though, I have noticed that since the weather is now warm up here, people don’t like to wear bras. I’ve seen way too many bra-less women walking the streets of Manhattan than I care to remember. I mean, I know it’s hot, but a bra isn’t that suffocating!!! So consider yourself lucky that the mostly naked lady is at least wearing a bra. Actually the important question here is, how nice are her boobs? Would Christina approve? Is she an old mostly naked lady, or young? Can you see her areola through the purple bra? If you can I say next time you see her, throw a shirt at her and scream “cover up, your areola is showing!!”

I currently have nine tubes of toothpaste sitting on my bathroom sink. Why? Good question; thank you for asking: My Sunday paper kept having coupons for my toothpaste of choice– $2.50 off of two and $1.50 off of one. Now, normally I wouldn’t keep buying the toothpaste, but I figured they’d stop printing the coupons eventually so, just before the set I was currently holding expired, I’d use them.
And the next day, they’d print a new set. Those conniving bastards.
It was a disease. I had to quit cold turkey (although I do still clip them to give to Chris or my parents).

Sales like that are great! Especially the 3-fer at Bath & Body Works, with all the yummy potions and lotions (however, my studio-sized bathroom is not liking it too much).
My problem arises when I run into The Sale at the grocery store (how many can of clams can one girl have?), and especially when it comes to the perishable foodies. I mean, will I buy 2-fer-1 tubs of strawberrys looking oh-so-red and ripe in the middle of this deathly summer mugginess? Absolutely! (my new favorite word, BTW). With aplomb, I mentally run through my strawberry-concontion recipes. But given the fact that I work a bajillion hours a day, all I end up with with is two tubs of fuzz. Yummy.
I want some strawberrys…..
