"You can hold my Balenciaga"

That was the last thing she said before we departed on Nori's wild ride.  She actually did fairly well, only stalling out once as the first placeholder at a left turn light.  Oh there was honking and shouting, but she's too adorable for anybody to stay mad at for long.

So many thanks to Nori for assisting me on my horrible life chore today.  For the first time in a month I felt the knot in my stomach undo a little bit after I got home tonight.

There's still the matter of what's to be done with the sunken Benz, but at least I know that I won't be getting in to any more trouble with lady law.

So I go back to work tomorrow with a smile on my face and a song in my heart.  Look out Boca Raton!

I decided to google the number one thing I heard today at work, and find an image I liked to post for today.  I was not disappointed.

While not first on the list, it didn't take much scrolling for me to come across this gem when I searched for, "discount?".

Incidentally, that's the exact expression/gesture I made to my coworkers which meant, "I am going to need a drink after this".

It was seriously crazy, in an often terrifying way.  Mostly just crazy bargain hunters though, with no regard for the merchandise they were looking at.

There were a few familiar faces though, like the two women who come (no joke) at least 5 days a week and try on the exact same things, always in a size too small, and then leave empty handed.  I was telling Jon about them and he came up with, "well maybe they're getting gastric by-pass surgery and trying on your clothes is their way of gauging their progress".

So now I feel bad and they are kind of endearing to me, as long as I go along with Jon's theory, which he followed up with, "or maybe they have that thing from 50 first dates."

After a day like today, I'd say anything is possible.

The good news is that I made it out unscathed and even took care of some important life chores this evening.  And tomorrow I work a mid-shift so it should be easy breezy beautiful.

Keep your fingers crossed for me.
