Cathy: I'm ready to relax! Where are the swimsuits with the built-in skirts? Saleswoman: Skirted suits? Horrors, no! Passe! Out! OUT! Cathy: What are those? Saleswoman: These are skirts to wear OVER suits! It's the latest trend! Cathy: Skirted suits are icky and outdated......But skirts OVER suits are fun and stylish? What's the difference? Saleswoman: The difference? Are you kidding?? Saleswoman with bun: VALUE! Saleswoman: If the skirt's attached, we can't charge $48 more for it!
Sales Lady’s remark is better than being lied to, but not by much. She’d hate to see Aaron or me coming into her store. Worse, if the store advertised on TV, it would never see any sales from us. We both figure that those insurance companies, for example, (who shall remain nameless but you know who) can afford to advertise twice each half hour or four times every hour for 24 hours a day, day after day and week after week on every network in creation AND in banner ads online, they do not need our money.
Our bud didn’t have scheduled PT today so Mom helped him work out. We decided that LMB is definitely staying clear of Aaron’s right hip. He whimpers when he’s near it. I read a study at work today that suggests pets can smell injury and disease. It’s the chemicals we use in treating injuries and also odors that cancers, etc put out. So if your pet is cozying up to you unexpectedly, get a checkup. Really.
hi mom!Your Pooh pic last night was so sweet. LMB saw it on the screen and then took his Pooh bear off the chair and curled up with him.
