Yep, still not fitting in
Saturday
The place: My local grocery store.
The outfit: My Oops tee.
The contents of the shopping cart: Two cases of Natty Light.
The cover of the rags at checkout: “Britney Tells Kids: You Were Both Mistakes!”
——————————
Sunday
The place: Our driveway, vacuuming out the car.
The outfit: What passes for jammies lately (too-tight tee and imitation silk lounge pants).
The conversation (with myself, of course): Upon discovering that Kyle has backed the car over the cord to my beloved Dyson – “What the FUCK?!” Not shouted, but not whispered either.
The icing on the cake: I ask Kyle to bring me a pair of shoes. He chooses the canvas platform wedges. My reply? “You’re trying to make me look as ridiculous as possible, aren’t you?”

Picturing this make me love you even more girlfriend.

well, that gives a whole new meaning to her song “oops I did it again” maybe when you wear the shirt you could have that play constantly, whereever you went. I’m sure you’ll really feel like you fit in then.

Tee hee hee. You needed a jumbo bag of Cheetos to complete the look. And just be glad you don’t live in the Bible Belt like me!
p.s. I love that shirt…that would definitely be on my wish list if I were to get prego.

Do they make them in kids’ sizes? Maybe I should get one for my daughter, whose 11 months younger than my son.

LMAO!
You’d fit in around these here parts…

pppffft! i just spit out my Natty Light! If you go to nattylight.com, you can take the “How Ya Livin’” poll. to see if “you are living the Natura Light lifestyle.” which I am pretty sure you are.

Yep, like the poster above, I’m falling in love with you right now.
It was the Dyson and silk pajama pants.

Fantastic! But next time make sure you take your wedding ring off in the grocery store and talk loudly about the 5 you already have at home.

I can’t convey the depths of my gratitude that you don’t fit in, J.

I am glad you are doing your part to subvert suburbia.
