<span style="font-family:Georgia; font-size:10pt">You might have heard me shrieking earlier.    
</span>

<span style="font-family:Georgia; font-size:10pt">And not because my friend and I were seated in what seemed like a lover's corner table at lunch today.
</span>

<span style="font-family:Georgia; font-size:10pt">(Hello, oddness to the fourth power. I'm not canoodling with her even if she got insulted when I told her I wouldn't. *smirk*)
</span>

<span style="font-family:Georgia; font-size:10pt">We ate the biggest lunch ever followed by some ridiculous dessert (and I even ate some of the dessert off her plate. I totally need to have some shame.).

<span style="font-family:Georgia; font-size:10pt">Afterwards, I'm not sure what possessed us to head over to a few Madison Avenue stores to shop for evening wear and then to a department store to bikini shop.

</span>

<span style="font-family:Georgia; font-size:10pt">I mean, I have LA coming up at the end of the week and she's got Florida a few days after so yes we were in need of a swimsuit of some kind but oh heavens.</span>

What's worse than living in the land of delusion?

<span style="font-family:Georgia; font-size:10pt">Not having the mirrors that are supposed to be deceiving and make you size skinny when you aren't.
</span>

<span style="font-family:Georgia; font-size:10pt">The mirrors in these fitting rooms made you size hefty when you really aren't.
</span>

<span style="font-family:Georgia; font-size:10pt">I can't even say how unflattering the bikinis looked on me. I just can't even share. I stood their horrified with my clothes off.
</span>

</span>

<span style="font-family:Georgia; font-size:10pt">After being horrified at how I looked in what I thought were some cute bikinis (yes, I stayed far away from the sexy bikinis and the itsy bitsy bikinis because they are just not me.) I got dressed and stayed in my dressing room waiting for my friend to finish trying on a dozen or so of the styles she chose to bring into the fitting room.

<span style="font-family:Georgia; font-size:10pt">See I look better in the fitting room with my clothes on.
</span>

<span style="font-family:Georgia; font-size:10pt">I can promise you one thing, before I go inside a fitting room and take my clothes off again, I am going to look for a list of stores with misleading mirrors.</span>
