Spent all day yesterday in Grand Rapids trying to hunt down a suit that would fit. I absolutely hate, despise, abhor shopping for clothes. Finding a jacket that will fit around my middle + look good is damn near impossible. After only one minor melt down I finally found a suit that was good enough–it met my only requirement (it needed to fit). The next melt down I had was over the price. Holy. Crap. There went my clothing allowance for almost the entire year. (((sigh)))
I bought the clothes at Dress Barn. They have a really great selection of clothing. Only 3 different suits, but lots of casual clothes and dresses. While I was there I also found a really cute dressy pair of capri pants.
Two things that really frustrated me about Dress Barn though:
- They forgot to give me my receipt. Didn’t realize until we were gone from the store and on our way out of town….had to turn around go back and get the damn receipt.
- I was debating on wearing those really cute capris today and Alan said “they forgot to take the security tag off” WTH??? Are you freaking kidding me? Now I have a really cute pair of pants and can’t wear them ;/ I have no idea how to remove that tag—any suggestions??
Oh well, the main thing is I have an interview suit. It will all work out. I catch a plane this afternoon and won’t be back until very late Tuesday night. I do not have a laptop to take with me so I’ll have to update you on Wednesday.
I’m looking forward to some warm weather 
Have a great couple days…I’ll talk with ya soon.
