first of all,
don't even cross me these days. i am vicious. my crank will hurt you.
second of all: i went shopping on saturday, for a nice dress (but not too fancy) to wear to my work's annual meeting. i had seen this dress:
online at the gap, but i wanted to wait til i got paid to buy it.
turns out, it took 5 days for this dress to sell out. which i thought was odd, but oh well.
my mom and i got to the mall at 1 pm on saturday, starting at nordstroms, because she thought they might have a really nice maternity department. the whole time i was kind of thinking that i've NEVER seen a maternity department in nordstroms, but i was trying to not be argumentative (see above).
i was right.
so we ventured into the mall, heading for gap kids. the gap's website told me that the gap kids at that specific mall had a maternity section.
they were wrong.
we passed by motherhood, and peeked in, and i did find some comfy pjs (lincoln at a whole through the vera wang ones last week), but all the dresses looked like ick. so then we went to target. no dresses.
enter mall 2 (yes, that kind of day). the gap again, macy's, old navy, jc penney's, and then sears. which is where i kind of lost it. we picked out an outfit, and i tried it on, and i started to cry (see above), and said, "this would be the perfect work event outfit, if i worked at tgifridays, and my job was walking around at 18 weeks pregnant, asking if people wanted to try the fried calamari appetizers!" to which my mother put her head in her hands and said "oh no," in a tone i hadn't heard since we were in the gunne sax section of bullocks wilshire when i was 12 years old, searching for dresses for my friend's bat mitzvah.
on the way out of mall 2, we went to another motherhood store, and i ended up finding something. granted, its nowhere near as cute as that gap dress - just looking at the photo makes me mourn that i can't wear that gap dress - but its allright cute and kind of eggplant purple, and will look nice with my brown boots, and a pretty leather/feather headband i bought for far too much money while we were at the nordstrom. i'll try to post a photo.
we find out the BIG news on wednesday. coincidentally, while my boss is out of town. the two items combined might mean i get NO WORK done on wednesday, but i'll try my best (he might read this). i will, of course, keep you posted.
xo.
