    Hmmmm. No TPBM. I'll restart.

    Today TPBM wore a sweater for the first time this season. :(

  • nope, still in the 90's for us here in TN.

    tpbm misses the good ole fall weather that used to come before global warming.

    False, we still get that here in New England.

    TPBM did a wardrobe inventory and has essentially one pair of suitable dress pants for work. :shock:

    false I have no dress pants....I hate shopping for dress pants, they never fit right

    TPBM is able to wear anything off the rack and look fabulous.

    Only at certain places. I'm a big Ann Taylor/Ann Taylor Loft fan, their pants fit well. Sale rack.

    TPBM would never pay more than $50 for a pair of jeans.

    well, it depends on how they fit, though $300 for a pair of jeans it WAY too much

    TPBM does not really care for being decked out in head to toe brand names

    Oh, God, not at all.

    TPBM's favorite jeans are Levi's.

    eh, don't really have a fave, though Levi's and Calvin's seem to fit the best

    TPBM gets distracted by signs that say 'SALE' and bypasses the regular priced clothing.

  • straight to the clearance racks for me.

    tpbm has been known to by a shirt just because it is $5.00 marked down from $40.00 even if they don't really like it thus defeating the purpose of buying it on clearance. There is a thought in the back of your mind that there is a slight chance you might wear it though.

    :oops: So true. I have at least three things upstairs that I bought because they were a great deal, but I've never actually worn them. But I might... ;)

    TPBM buys clothing online.

  • occasionally...it scares me.

    tpbm likes to be able to try clothes on before they make the commitment.

    Very true. Especially pants. I'm tall and I have a real thing about having them be long enough.

    TPBM freaking hates buying new jeans.

  • YES. I hate buying any pants at all. I am picky about the way my pants fit.

    tpbm has a brand they prefer to buy and goes for them first.

    Ann Taylor/Ann Taylor Loft. Mainly because a few years ago they did something to the sizes and I know I lost weight, but really, from a size 12 to a size 4?!? Yes, I admit it's flattering, if not entirely accurate. :lol:

    TPBM doesn't get caught up in what the scale says.

  • Maybe I should give them a try! And no I do not look at the scales, as a matter of fact, we do not even have scales in out house.

    tpbm really has many other things they should be doing right now.

    Sleeping!

    TPBM had a most unsettling dream last night in which their hours at work were reduced. (Which is weird, as in management you don't have "hours" per se...)

  • Yeah, I don't think my hours could be reduced either or the kids would be left alone.

    tpbm is trying to type and the new kitten is chasing their fingers around the keyboard. Most difficult to type.

    No, but would like a kitten (not sure the puppy would though)

    tpbm has a headache and feels like they are wearing an incredibly tight hat
  • sorry about that. I know how that feels, I get migraines sometimes.

    tpbm is listening to the timer go off in the kitchen and really should go see what is about to burn.
