I am not what you'd call a fashionista. Pretty much the opposite. My wardrobe generally comes from Sam's Club and Costco. Today, Costco was on the list of places we planned to visit. I didn't have anything in mind, except maybe a couple sleep t-shirts. Alas, they did not have the short sleeve version of the brand I like... Joan was doing a sales job on the long sleeve version that they did have. And, a 2-pack instead of a 3, 4, or 6 pack.
While looking around, I found another flannel shirt I kinda liked. Joan was extolling the virtues of flannel-lined jeans when she saw them in the men's section. Less than $20 and they were lighter weight than the two pair of flannel-lined pants I gave to the Goodwill after declaring "no more fun summer jobs." Yes, there will be some cooler weather ahead, and these will be comfortable on the motorcycle. Sold. Joan found a couple things for herself, too.
Now, if you've ever bought clothes at these warehouse places, you know that they don't have dressing rooms. If you get home and it doesn't fit, you have to make another trip back for a refund or an exchange.
Today, we drove the van to run our errands...
Yep - it makes a good "dressing room" when you're day-tripping with it. Everything fit, so we didn't have to go back in. That wasn't the purpose of taking the van today; I just like to drive it.
And while we're on the subject of Costco, another first for me: I have never had one of their $1.50 hot dog combos. Yep, my food tastes are pretty similar to my clothing choices. It was a good hot dog; better than the similar offering at Sam's Club.
I would call this a pretty good day in the desert. 39º when I got up this morning, but it is supposed to get to 72º for a high. And, sunny. We have a concert planned for this evening: Tommy Emmanuel at MIM. We've seen him before - a guitar player extrordinaire! We'll be meeting Mark and Cindy there; I think this is their first time seeing TE. I am tingly with anticipation... TMI?
