So Broke
On a whim, at Abbie’s suggestion that we stop into a suit shop in the loop to pass the time (and warm up?), I bought a tuxedo on Saturday. Then, I bought new glasses to replace the old ones that got smashed. The day before this little extravaganza, Abbie bought her dress. The dress. (The one that you don’t actually get until six months after the fact. I still have trouble understanding this. The tux takes two weeks.) Later that day, we got groceries. Lots o’ groceries. $800 gone within four hours. Yesterday, I dropped off receipts from my LA trip that totalled over $650. At least those are getting reimbursed.
My poor credit card. And by poor, I mean…poor. And by credit card, I mean…me.
It takes that long because they have to make the dress. Didn’t you know there are little ladies somewhere stitching together a dress just for me? Well, that is what I tell myself at least.
Seriously though, it’s fairly elaborate and is made in the US not by 5 year olds in China so it takes a while to get.
Plus, my mom bought it so we aren’t as broke.
Oh wait, yes we are.
