Shopping Find

Friday we went to the mall (that was stupid, too many people, but we saw where Denis works). I found a pair of jeans for $20! At the Gap, which is usually not friendly to people with hips. I rarely go shopping, it's ever rarer that I buy new clothes, I don't think I've bought a new pair of jeans in two years. I missed an entire jean-style going in and out of fashion (the low-rider thing), maybe it's still in, whatever. Anyway, my new jeans are bringing me much joy!

The Gap is evil...

The Gap is not friendly to people in general! Chris and I both don't shop there, for opposite reasons. They don't believe in big and tall men, and they don't believe in petite women.

Well, I guess their small and x-small sizes would fit people who are short, but only if they have Callista Flockhart figures. They expect people of my girth to be at least three inches taller than I am, which means anything that actually fits me would be too long.

I gave up on The Gap a long time ago, because it was just too frustrating. Even when I used to go in thinking I could at least get some shorts, the only sizes they would have left were size 0 or 2. But I'm glad you found some nice jeans there!

The Gap is for me! They make clothes for me in all sizes which fit me! Yay! And also my roommates.

In a related statement: Hips rock!

I was not aware that The Gap had a centaur section... Shows what I know, eh?

I'm only half of a centaur currently.

Although they do not make horse clothes, so technically Me can not wear Gap couture.
