dialogue at the mirror, Value World

Me (to the woman looking on curiously as I regard the reflection of myself in a funny fringed Native American-ny decorative shoulder thing---sort of a cross between a collar and a shawl): Kind of a strange item. Don't know where I'd wear it.

Woman: Do you ever go to rock concerts? You could wear it there.

Me: True. Hmmm....

Woman: It has a slimming effect.

Me: Oh, well I wouldn't want that. (turn decisively, walk away, that-settles-that)

tee hee hee

I love when I have something at the ready on such an occasion.

Too right. I find that I often lose focus in such situations and fall back on the witty comment (which may or may not further my ultimate objective--if you know what I mean) rather than the insightful observation.

BTW, I haven't seen a Big Fat Blog post in quite some time. Have any idea what's up with that?

I just realized the other week that I hadn't seen one in a long time---it'd been since, like, May! The feed changed: it's now

I feel compelled to point out that one could do worse than to be cursed with the wit of wednes. IYKWIM.
