Things I Hate
Shopping. For anything, but especially for clothes. I had to get an interview suit this morning, since I'm still too chunky to wear my normal clothes. You'd think a conservative, plain black suit would be easy to find, but you'd be wrong.
I finally found something suitable, but since it had this tiny, microscopic periwinkle dot pattern I had to find a top to match. Well, I didn't. I thrust the suit at the saleslady & said "I want this suit. I need a top to match, please." Which you'd think since they sell the suit, they would also have tops to match conveniently located nearby. But you'd be wrong.
She finally found something that didn't look like underwear, and I was off to get foundation & powder. I hate makeup. I hate wearing it, I hate smelling it, and I especially hate buying it. Luckily there's salesgirls who get paid to pick it out for you. I even got a free makeup bag full of samples included with my purchase. It's a lovely pink plaid....a color I hate.
Mike called as I was leaving the store, and couldn't believe I'd gotten everything I came for in about an hour. He says I don't go shopping, I go hunting.
Well, sure. Doesn't everybody?
