This is h...Molly sent me your way and I'm so glad! This is hilarious! I remember after my sister's wedding I had about 1000 bobby pins in my hair and set off the metal detector at the airport on my way home. I looked at the security guy, pointed at my hair (this was the NEXT morning) and said "Wedding. Not. Taking. Them. All. Out." So he was like "that's fine!" A lady with one of those metal wands came from out of nowhere and sure enough my hair set the thing off and as she ran it down the rest of me, it beeped over ONE of my boobs (bra with underwire) but not the other boob. THAT underwire had come out! So she passed it over that boob again because it didn't make a sound. <BR/><BR/>Then I started giggling and said "um, the underwire came out a LONG time ago." THANK GAH she was a lady because she cracked up too and said "oh honey, I've got a drawer full of 'em like that at home!"(Sometimes!)

It's a curse to have to replace a good bra because you've worn it until it's a poor shredded thing held together with one last crooked hook (the others were destroyed in the dryer) and maybe a safety pin. I wore a nursing bra for YEARS after drying up because the thing fit so dang perfectly.<BR/>Who wants to try on 39 bras in the dressing room to find just the right one? Not me. So I take my chances and pay my money. Then I get home and find out that the thing makes the girls face in opposite directions with funny little square points. Or the wires restrict inhalation and inflict pain on exhalation. Or the cups runneth over causing unsightly and hazardous spillage. And the skinny straps, the scratchy lace, the saggy fabric....somebody stop me.<BR/><BR/>So good luck with that.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18817460.post-8816590715792171862009-01-08T16:27:00.000-06:002009-01-08T16:27:00.000-06:00Hahaha.

They can shop and shop and never stop--even if it's just window shopping.<BR/><BR/>I would have done the same thing and bought whatever my kids needed first and then bought the jeans. My reasoning would have beent the exact same as yours--no one sees my bras. It sure is nice to treat myself to a nice VS bra once every five years or so, though, lol. I love 'em, but it kills me to spend that much on a bra that no one will see. And then, of course, Danny says, "If you were going to spend $40 on a bra, why didn't you get something other than white?" I think he has underwear and lingerie confused. Actually, I think he thinks there should just be the lingerie category, whereas I lean more toward underwear only since that is the practical category.<BR/><BR/>Oh sheesh! I did it again.
