Oh my dear Rusty....You must have been in LALA-Land even before you became a zombie! $250 for an outfit??? HA! That MIGHT buy the underpinnings...but a whole outfit? In your dreams! Just wait til your daughter Alexa starts buying her clothes....Poor Rusty, literally.
Frau-the experienced shopper.
Oh my, I so needed that laugh!
I know the bills you received were a whole lot more than that $250, and I shop discount whenever possible. You don't want me to start counting just how many pairs of jeans, new tops/shirts, dresses, etc I really did buy. Maybe you haven't gotten all the bills yet? :::snickers:::
As for having the sense not to follow an angry zombie into so called biblical storm...If you hadn't been followed you'd probably have landed in the center of the gulf, without a clue where to find your daughter, get information on her history or have been blown to Oz, and we all know there isn't much of a wizard there.
Nuff said.
Thanks, Rusty, I needed that chuckle. Of course, most of the statements made it directly to me (very ...er, thoughtful, of you, Ravyn, to expedite the process that way), and I believe that the $250 receipt was generated early in the day, sort of a warmup exercise, I gather.
Retracing the paper trail, I am rather impressed in the amount of retail territory covered in a relatively short period of time. Some of the bills aren’t itemized, but from what I’ve been able to cross-check (to verify prices and such – note to Ravyn: some of these establishments have been known to have occasional promotions referred to as “sales,” during which items can be purchased at “discounted prices.”), I’d really appreciate it if you’d warn me if you intend to wear the Gaelyn and Cianfarani gown or the de la Renta... um, item ... over here, as the nearest defibrilator is clear over at the campus gym.
Anyway, it’s good to have you both back home safely and newly revitalized. Now, if you’ll pardon me, I have to go change all of our charge account numbers.
Jim, those WERE sale prices, I don't buy retail and never buy at list price. I have already worn both the Gaelyn and Cianfarani gown and the de la Renta "Item" as you describe it, Yule and New Years gave me the perfect opportunities to do so AND by wearing them was able to meet some very interesting people who may be able to assist our cause in ways never imagined.
So you two just get your jockeys out of a bunch and relax. When have you Jim, ever known me to do something just for the fun of it?
Um...forget I asked that LOL
:::Makes quick dash to Gurney Mills DISCOUNT mall before the changes take effect:::
LOL...always glad to provide a little humor, it keeps me on my toes.
Frau- Underpinnings? Last time I looked, Ravyn didn't bother with those things...
:::Ducking firebolt:::
Ravyn- You are of course right, without you, I'd've been pretty damn lost down there, and Drake and the Little Devil would have our precious Alexa...so I can't understate that fact...
Jim- As you will see above, I am working on a solution that should make the organization a little more solvent, and should be able to cover the added expenses arising from our latest adventure...
Rusty, this is a good thing. I will expect a check by courier to reimburse me for the checks Jim wrote from my own money within the week.
Jim, I've also received the new credit cards numbers from a reliable source, so all is right with the world again. I promise only the necessities now, you know, food for myself, the students, the critters, utilities, etc.
No more trips to the spa, unless that silly zombie gets me all fried again. I promise!! (At least for a month or so)
As for underpinnings - Rusty, you haven't gotten close enough to know what underpinnings I might or might not be wearing - summoning me out of a bath does not count!
But you do know what will make it alright again, no? Do I have to ask for it yet again?
