It's Official - I'm Old
>> Friday, August 14, 2009
Emily has been visiting this week. Awesome.
She wanted to go shopping. I haven't been to a mall to "shop" in a LONG time.
Damien graciously babysat so we could go. I don't think he realized how long girls can shop.
We went to the "fancy" mall here in Dallas. It had some stores that Em wanted to go to that she can't go to in NOLA.
After going in a few stores all I could do was laugh. Seriously, the clothes were (in my opinion) hideous! It was a peek back into the '80's. Well, we did go in a few stores that had more of the type of clothing style that I was used to, but for the most part I was in shock.
I didn't believe that this could be for real. But there were lots of people shopping in the stores and even wearing outfits.
I felt bad. Em wanted me to give opinion of clothes she tried on. Of course it looked great on her for what it was supposed to be. I didn't know what to say though.
Really, I'm old. I mostly listen to kids music or obscure Christian music so when I hear music at the store all I can think it "what in the world?" Who would like this?
I knew it would happen.
I just had to try on a few of this dresses that EVERYONE seemed to want. Maybe they looked better on a person than on the rack, right? Wrong. I couldn't stop laughing. And when Damien saw the pictures? Yep, he laughed too. Ahhhh, we're so old!

Of course, i am older than you but I have to agree. I went shopping about a month ago and all i saw i thought was hideous. There is no way i would wear anything that i saw. I have actually thought about starting to learn to sew.
Your not old, you've matured and for the better...LOL. I hate shopping, the only stores that have clothes that actually look good on me and not the ridiculous trendy stuff is to expensive, it's crazy, someday they'll figure it out.
those are funny
but i actually like the pick and gray one
it looked good on you too
Those are awesome... i cannot believe these styles are coming back...CRAZY!!!! I was saying the other day to Zach...no one tells we look like teenagers anymore... lol. It is so true. It is weird thinking that we are getting older. Seriously. Wow...don't you still feel young...but with kids, if that is possible...ha ha
Oh, my it really cracks me up to see you in those clothes!! Sorry!!! :D In one way it's weird to. If YOU are "old" what does that make me???
