Skinny jeans are my mortal enemy

I’m a little heartbroken this morning because I’m a dumb butt. I forgot my sunglasses at the hotel where we had a big meeting on Friday night and nobody turned them in.  Keith convinced me to invest in a pair of Maui Jim sunglasses. These are not cheap, but I could justify the cost because I am outside all the time and I’ve had lasik, so I need to take extra special care of them. So I spent this money on these sunglasses and I wore them at the cocktail gathering that was outside on a patio that evening. Lyndsey said that I could set them down on top of her notepad because they are sport glasses and don’t fold up all the way. So I put them down at about 7ish and when I left at around 10 something, I had totally forgotten about them. We called the lost and found and I even drove to the hotel to get them. They’re not there and I am so upset over it. I loved these glasses but I don’t want to spend that much money on another pair. I will wait a couple more days to see if someone maybe found them and wants to give them back. That would make me so happy if these sunglasses got turned back in. PLEASE!?!

On Saturday I swear that we met a vampire. I didn’t think too much about it at the time, but now all the signs point to this guy really being a real live vampire. He had that gray/white hair that real life vampires could have. He covered up his wrist with a bandana. He had big teeth. He wore his hat down low to keep the sun out of his eyes. He had very low energy while he was in the sun. I can say that I’ve never questioned meeting a vampire before, so this is kind of intriguing to me. He wore a red shirt…what color is blood? Wow. That was different.

I hate men in skinny pants. I think that the skinny pants do no men any kind of favor. It’s like rolling your pants up in the 80’s where no shoes could ever look decent. I don’t know why they bother me so much…especially on men…since I don’t look at men in any way other than you can’t really avoid them since there are so many in this world…But it pains me to no end to see a man in skinny pants. I don’t know why they bother me this much. Maybe I’m just jealous because there’s no way I could pull them off. But what’s wrong with having just a tad bit of flare at the bottom of your pants or leaving a tad bit to the imagination on the form fit of your legs. Ugh. I need to stop now.

Does anyone need a piece of junk couch? Maybe you need a giant chew toy for your dog. Maybe your kids need something to jump on. Maybe you need something to shoot your bee bee gun at. I don’t know nor do I care. I just know that I have a couch that’s been sitting in my dining room for months now and I have nowhere to take it. I’m going to just throw it out if nobody wants the thing. My dog gets to keep the love seat because she likes to sit on it and look out the window, but the couch is up for the taking. So leave a comment if you are in the area and want this thing. It’s nothing fancy but it is comfortable. So there ya go…
