I've Been Chastised

My sister and I went shopping last night. At about 7pm we left Wooster and headed for the sprawling metropolis of Wadsworth where there happens to be a Target. I was looking for a swimsuit bottom (I had already found a top at Kohl's, but there was no matching bottom to be found) and some other clothes for our upcoming vacation and my sis was along for the ride while perhaps looking for a dress for her college graduation. We spent a long time in the dressing room and my sister found a pants, capris, shorts, and various shirts that all looked great. Guess what I walked out with...another swimsuit top without matching bottoms! If you know me at all you know how practical I am and that it is not like me to buy something that is not useful (unless it is really on clearance). Obviously I will not be wearing a swimsuit top with no bottoms, so right now they are not very practical. However, I will not be defeated! I will find swimsuit bottoms!
--On a side note, who designs these swimsuit bottoms anyway? Both of the tops I bought are mediums. When I try on bottoms that are a medium or even a large I am exposing more skin than I (or anyone else for that matter) should feel comfortable about exposing. I swear the people that design them must have absolutely no rear-end (I wanted to use that other word there, but I am not sure who reads this :) Anyhow, I digress.--
So my sister and I left Target at 9pm and headed to Kohl's. There I actually found some clothes for both me and my husband and one of my girls, but, alas, no swimsuit bottoms. My sister did find her graduation dress - a really cute one at that - and some other stuff. In all it was a very fun trip. We got back to my house at about 11:30pm both exhausted, but in a way refreshed.
So you're probably wondering about the title of the blog. Well somewhere in the course of our conversations my sister scolded me for not blogging recently. She said that she checks my blog every time she logs on and I haven't written anything new in over a month. Shame on me. So, I decided to use our trip as my topic. See Rach, you complain - you get written about :)
I do have a lot of stuff to write about. Hopefully I will be able to catch up this week. We'll see...
