I want that

 I am in love with Brooks Brothers and their Black Fleece collection is soooooo badass it isnt even funny. However, I am sure they would turn me out of the store the minute I set foot in, so I am reduced to visiting these cardigans online. A steal at 187.00 each. Who is gonna buy me one? I will be your friend forever. I promise to tell your secrets, eat all of your food and make fun of your clothes just like a real friend!

I am always looking for fabulous clothes for Master P, too, and the Black Fleece mens collection is soooo droolworthy. The models are so Harvardy and hawt and look like they could have been members of the Kinks. It does me in everytime.

So, not so cheaperton, but something to save for I reckon. Maybe that change jar will go ahead and fill up.

Good shoes to hide my missing toenail

I had a hankering for a pair of sperry topsiders. Since no one who reads this knows who I am really, this will not shock you, but to my other (2) readers who actually know me this could be potentially shocking. I dont go anywhere near boats, I am about to move to TornadoLand and be nowhere near a beach or a boat (but I will be close to a nasty ass polluted river, which kind of counts). This hankering is not usual for me, but I wanted blue angelfish sperrys and have them I must.

In my search I browsed online and then searched in earnest online and then resorted to bribery (I will quit calling you if you buy me these shoes. I will quit hanging out in your bushes if you buy me these shoes. I wont ruin your lovelife with false statements if you buy me these shoes) all to no avail. Then, lo and behold! My new Belk's card came in the mail along with my ghastly credit card statement (a lie, it isnt that bad...really...) and a 20% off coupon and 10 dollars in Belks Bucks. Yes, the day was mine. I ended up with these completely adorable shoes which I will wear sockless (heh heh heh) and I got them for less than 50 bucks.

So I will have preppy feet, but in reality I bought these because I lost 1/4 of my big toenail and needed some comfortable yet not butt dog ugly shoes to cover the monstrosity that is my water ski feet. Rejoice with me!

Things I find funny today

I was spending this morning much like I spend most of my mornings and afternoons which would be lying in bed and eating cake and hacking around on the internet when I made the hilarious discovery that I have been blocked on facebook by a woman I have never met. How do I know this and why do I care? Well, I will tell you. We have mutual friends and I was posting a comment on said mutual friends wall and I saw a familiar last name. Well I clicked on this gal and figured out she was the wife of a boy I very, very casually dated. Like held hands at church camp dated. I thought "Oh, how nice. That repulsive bag of grotesque flesh found someone to love him" and I went on about my merry way. I typed her name in and discovered that, alas, she could not be found. Yes, my imaginary readers, I was blocked!!! HAHAHAHHAHAHAA!!!! What makes this extra funny is that this poor woman is probably jealous of me holding her husbands fat sweaty hand when I was 15. She thought enough about it and hated me enough to seek me out and block me. I would love to crack up, but it is really quite pitiful.

In savings news, I hit up more lands end yesterday. I snagged two pairs of baby britches (very cute and excellent quality), a patent leather picture keychain for my mother, a long sleeved broadcloth shirt (monogrammed cause I am an obsessed loser) and a lands end Canvas tank top cause I am tossing out all of my junky ones. (Lands End Canvas is the less momish version of lands end, complete with delectable male models looking Harvardy)I only spent 33 bucks and if everything had been at full price (and if I had paid for shipping which I REFUSE to do because it is against my religion) it would have been well over 150.00.

I had another good run the day before (you know, while lying in bed eating cake and drinking Dr Perky) at Lands End and hooked up on a shadow stripe tank (I already have navy and black--50% cotton, 50% modal and they DO NOT cling to the nightmare that is my stomach for which I am eternally grateful. Love the kids, but my stomach looks like a rabid dog got ahold of me and shook my belly skin violently. It is so beyond hot) and a henly tee for less than 12 bucks and free shipping and I paid for it with paypal money from the poor suckers who buy my junk on ebay.

So, in closing, I am feared and hated by women everywhere (well, just one and she is obviously insane), I keep buying monogrammed stuff even though I am the last thing from preppy (I like to think of myself as lazy/lardy) and getting out of bed for any reason is completely overrated.
