random observations

What is it with old ladies and boys? We just got back from Walmart, and the over-70 crowd could NOT get enough of Alex. It's a good thing he was strapped in, or he might have gotten kissed to death. I was thinking they were noticing him because he gets to ride in the 'pedestal' position, while Katie is relegated to the basket, until I remembered my mission. In one of my areas we did service at an old folks home. The sisters would spend a few hours helping the ladies get dressed/diapered/setting hair after sauna, and the the elders would show up at the end and we'd sing a few songs for them. Clearly, they were hurting for entertainment. The days the elders didn't show up, you'd think the sky had fallen. Such disappointment. Never mind the beauty shop. Maybe that girl competition thing NEVER goes away for some people, even past 70!

Let's make a rule about boob shirts. If you have to repeatedly grab the front to yank it back up over your cleavage, perhaps you should consider the wisdom of wearing said shirt. At least in the day time. And then I thought, humm, should that same rule apply to me and my pants? :)

Love the posts today. And LOVE the idea of putting your birthday list on the blog. I should start mine now. Doesn't have to be about birthday- just if-you-want-to-buy-me-a-present-here's-an-idea list. Very cool.

I do believe I am a sufferer of that shirt-curse... Problem is that I wear a tank under jsut about every shirt, and the tank is what pulls down... I jsut need a taller tank... wehre to find one though?

I do think the same rule would apply with your pants... if you are constantly pulling them back up, I'd say a smaller size or a belt are in order!

I wouldn't wear boob shirts if they would make something that covered me and looked like it was from this decade. So I end up wearing a tank like azufelt under my shirts but what's the point of more layers in the summer, it just makes me more irritated and that's not good for anybody!
