I bought a new coat today. Eggplant, lined wool, narrow shoulders, wide hem, and a fur-lined hood. How much do I love it? Enough to ignore the fur-lined hood. It was half price, plus that fox should die for all the chickens he probably killed. Save the chickens! I am pro-chicken. Plus he was an eggplant colored fox, how high was the quality of his life anyway? Ha ha? I feel guilty.
Anyway, I had plans to soothe my guilt. When I got to the mall I looked for a parking spot for fifteen minutes when a lady on her way out waved and encouraged me to follow her to her car. I planned to do the same for someone else. Sadly, when I stepped out of the mall no one was around. I fished my keys out of my purse. Still no one. I set off for my car anyway.
I noticed it smelled just lovely outside. Very fresh, very clean. Then I thought, maybe it's the coat. Do they do that at Nordstroms? Spray a coat with perfume after they sell it? I sniffed the coat. It smelled more nuanced than perfume. It smelled like someone with powder had tried it on before.Maybe? Pretty, anyway.
When I got into the car I thought, wow, you can really smell the coat when you're in the car.
Then I took my cell phone out of my purse. My cell phone really smelled good! In fact my whole purse smelled like ...
Yes. I must have unscrewed the top when I got my keys. However, if I ever need to poop in my purse no one will EVER know.
OMG! You are HYSTERICAL! I love it! I need to read more blogs like yours! I found your blog through another MS blog. I got diagnosed in 10/11 and need positive humor-based blogs to make me feel good. I just got back to blogging after a 2yr hiatus. Soooo I stumbled upon yours and I am now officially subscribing. We have a similar sense of humor. You can take a look at my blog if you would like. The first post that says blast from the past. Anything else you would need that stuff that was in your purse because it is old poop. LOL!

Jodi - Yeah, during that 2 year hiatus you were busy losing 200+ pounds and being a vegan. I'm glad the Copaxone is working for you, given that it turned me blue. http://www.mocklog.com/queen_mediocretia/2007/08/tea-and-sympath.html

I love this. You wrote Brad Pitt's new line:
"Hmmmm...pretty...eau de one drop."

Erin G - Tell me why Brad Pitt decided to make himself a laughingstock with that commercial. Did he need money?
Autumn - It does. I hope everyone at work enjoys it: it saturated my purse.
