emskI went shopping with Jexia today! I'd kind of gotten used to shopping on my own if it's things like clothes, shoes, etc, because although I love Tobermory dearly, he is not a fun shopping companion.
So, we met up, nattered some, I ogled the babies and X, started trawling through stores. (Her husband kid-wrangled.) And it was fun!
Score of the day: a $190 jacket for $30. Business-style jacket, that is - I've been wanting one, and struggling to find any that fit over my bust and button without looking a) ridiculously tight at the bust b) ridiculously loose at the stomach c) silly at the shoulders. And this one fits!! Also found a pair of jeans, which is nice, as my last ones succumbed to fat-girl-pants syndrome of chafing-through in the top of the thigh.
It was a lot of fun. Simple fun, yes, but it was just NICE wandering around clothing stores being vaguely girly. I haven't been shopping with another woman for a LONG time.
Having wandered the mall for several hours, and waved her off home when X was becoming difficult for M to wrangle (and then mall-wandering further, because it wasn't worth driving home then driving halfways back to go to work) I purchased a large takeaway of Chinese and transported myself to work.
Where I have to remain until 2am. Sigh...
