On the subject of Me

Two things:

The Gap has the best dress/office pants in right now. I bought ankle length (for the shorties among us; but not as "ankular" as you might think - just right for wearing a nice pair of boots), in a nice charcoal grey, their Curvy fit Perfect trouser pants and I would say they really are quite perfect, especially when I don't have to have them tailored! The fit is wonderful - they are ever so slimming and sleek as all get out. A great pant to have for the workplace that'll take you right into evening. Now don't I just sound like a magazine. Buy some. Price is right (bought them when they had a BOGO; what store doesn't have these kind of sales now?!). They don't always have the best fits (last year was the pits) but this year they're right on the money, honey.

In other news, B's dad and his girlfriend are staying with us for a few nights. This morning started off by him knocking on our bedroom door to inform B that it was past the time that he told him last night he would wake up this morning to get to work on time. Being woken up by your dad - when it's still dark outside - in your own house: priceless(ly infuriating). Of course I'm exaggerating. It was endearing. A throwback if you will to when we went on a trip with him earlier this year in Europe and insisted on acting as our daily alarm clock. We're on vacation!!!

Moving right along, my regular morning breakfast ritual was interrupted this morning by my dear future father-in-law giving me career advice from his perch on the living room futon while I prepared my breakfast just above his head in our conveniently open concept kitchen-living room.
