If you did all of the following this weekend …

  • Worked.
  • Bought a light brown (I’ve decided it is a “pale latte” color.) Antonio Melani handbag on sale. (Regularly $199, I got it for $49.)
  • Wished someone would make a cell phone with a breathalyzer to prevent drunk texting.
  • Drank margaritas with friends instead of watching the Oscars.
  • Became annoyed with the people at a newly opened wine bar who were standing around taking up space while they drank Miller Lite from the bottle. (The point of a wine bar? Is not to drink crappy domestic beer and stand around looking bored.)
  • Slept in one day.
  • Grumbled about not having someone to sleep in with.
  • Pined after a certain cute, smart guy.  (Attention cute, smart guys: Stop having girlfriends.)
  • Practiced walking nice and smoothly for a big appointment at the orthopedist on Monday. (The fracture will be healed. It must!)
  • Became obsessed with “Love Today” by MIKA.
  • Prepared to launch an all out War on Dillard’s because their salespeople refused to look in the back for my size in a shoe that was on super sale, saying that they had everything out. (I happen to know that they DID have more shoes in the back because they pulled different sizes of sale shoes for one of my girlfriends and her mother. IT IS ON.)
  • Failed to write three coherent sentences.

… then you’re me.

On Saturday night/Sunday morning I sent a text message that was so drunk I’m sure it stopped for a kebab and sang rugby songs while stumbling through the ether on its way to the recipients phone.

I feel your pain on the whole Dillard’s thing. I am currently boycotting Belk as they were total shits to me when I was attemping to return some dupliate wedding gifts. The purchasier did not ring them up via the registery, so Belk would not give me full credit back, they gave me $4.52 back on a set of $47.00 dishes, because “they have no idea what was paid for it, so they have to give me the lowest price they have ever charged” I don’t shop there anymore and I tell anyone and everyone who will listen not to shop there either!!

In honor of your issues, I will now stop shopping at Dillard’s too!!

What was the wine bar doing even serving Miller Lite? I mean, there are ways to prevent this sort of thing…

Yay for getting such a good deal on a new purse! I need a new one myself, but keep putting off going shopping…

Just have to second Mike’s comment: really, seriously, all of you cute, smart women out there, could a few of you be single for a change?

18. Vanessa - February 27, 2008

Sounds like you had an awesome weekend. Hopefully things went well at the orthopedist.

19. Nelly - February 28, 2008

For the most part, you and I lead almost the exact same life. I’m all for the breathalyzer on the phone. Cheer to that!!!
