okay... yeah, THAT was a Mrs. Roper quote, but, I went out this morning to the Jackson Premium Outlets and found FIVE (5) dresses.
non-Roperesque.
Very happy with them - sure, they don't make me look anorexic, but, they look nice on me.
Came home, tried 'em on, conferred with gigglemom and decided on one of the dresses (I can bring a couple of the others on the cruise)
Oh! Speaking of the cruise, I went out this morning and got my passport renewed - it's not in my hands, but, it's being expedited. I should have it by June 17.
So after I decided on a dress, I went down the street to look for shoes. they had nothing that I wanted... and/or they had ONE pair that was somewhat okay, but when i tried them on and walked around i was in pain. so that scratched that.
I opted to look tomorrow for shoes when the tootsies are fresh. So, I went next door to the shoe place... to the camera store. I was swayed by the allure of one Ashton Kutcher.
I now own a Nikon CookPix S550... in Plum. (as well as a big ass 4G memory thang and an extra battery)
So happy!
Gadgets are a gal's best friend!
*My camera fits perfectly
** oh yeah, that other dress came in the mail today and it was lovely except it was choking my girls. the ladies need to breathe at the reunion, thank you very much, and the dress was flattening them.
Whatchoosayin'?? (4 yapped)
Pictures, please! We have a need to critique, I mean complement. I'm sure the "furiousball" will have a few choice, yet amusing comments. You just can't "tell" and not "show"! And you DO have that nice new camera to "break-in" dontcha?
[note from GC: you'll have to wait until after my reunion. then I will post photos.]

Does this mean we'll get to see pictures from your cruise??? I don't know anything about gadgets- can barely e-mail..... but I LOVE the sea/sun/refreshments!!!! Keep us posted.
[note from GC: oh definitely! I will post them on my flickr page when I get back. but the trip isn't until June 20 and I get home on June 29th... I won't be uploading anything until after that.]

I agree we need to see pics! I also understand not wanting to post prior to the reunion. Congrats on the new purchases!

What part of your arse did you pull that quote out of?;-)~ You must have some recall, or watch lots of 3's Co. reruns.... Happy Hump Day!!!
