today is 'country day' at work.  it's a day i invented.  on country day one dresses country style and one listens to country music all day long.  basically i just want to wear my cowboy hat.  we'll see how many people comply to my directionals.

i'm very disappointed in my new bamboo bath scrubby.

  a week or two ago i went to the beach on a whim.  i thought i just might take a dip.  it was in the evening and i put on my suit and just pulled my jean capris over my bottoms and just wore my top as a top if you know what i'm saying.  at the beach everything goes.  well once i got there it was quite chilly and no one was swimming so i stayed on my blankie and read and watched the sunset.  on my way home i was thinking about how i had to have a shower but that i needed a new bath scrubby.  i had been without a bath scrubby for far too long and i didn't want to have one more shower without one.  so i decided to stop at shoppers on my way home.  it was closed.  safeway was open.  so i risked it and went in in my bathing suit top. i felt so embarrassed.  it's not like my stomach was showing or anything, but it was because i was wearing it like a top.  i felt like people were purposely averting their eyes.  to make matters worse, there was only one kind of bath scrubby--the bamboo one, and i didn't know if it would work out but i had to get it now that i had breached safeway in my suit.  i also bought some ice cream.  how weird for some woman to come in, in her bathing suit top, and she proceeds to buy ice cream and a bath scrubby.  i'm avoiding safeway for a while.

and now the said scrubby does not perform well=mortification for nothing.

on the brighter side i wear a cowboy hat to work today.  i might even line dance while i'm making butternut squarsh soup.
