Today I broke in my brand new superfuckingcute coat. You will gasp, I know, but it is pink, with huge buttons, and in the SWING style that is so popular now. I luuurrve it. When I put my hair up in a clip and wear this coat, I look like Audrey Hepburn (except of course that I am not a twig)!!!
On my way to an appointment tonight, I had to switch buses. As I was getting off to make the change, a series of people surged forward to get on and I had to sort of fight through them. As I was making my way down the bus stairs, an old, rather disheveled man beamed at me and said:
"Hello, big girl."
I swear you cannot make this shit up.
I guess he could have said "Hello, pink girl," or "Hello, big pink," but I really don’t think so. I think he said "Hello, big girl."
I should have said "Hello, big hobo! Happy LENT!"
