This, That and The Other Thing

This:

About 2 years ago I found the most perfect fitting underwear and bras. I go every 6 months or so and restock, update my undie drawer. Good things don’t last forever. I was there last week armed with a great coupon. In this store, you don’t get to start digging for your size…the sales ladies take care of it for you.

I told my helper what style undie I needed and which colors.

She asked: “small?”

I said “no”…she then said: “ok, medium.”

I said, “actually, I wear a large in these.”

She laughed and said: “I don’t even wear a large!”

I thought: wow. She IS larger than me…I guess I am wearing big girl pants now?

Then I wondered, If I am a size 6…then who is wearing the small size?

Tinker bell?

That:

There should be a law that the song Manic Monday (The Bangles) can ONLY be played/heard on Monday’s.

Will you sign the petition?

The Other Thing:

I make up songs all the time. I start with an original song and then change the words to suit me, ‘cause I am crafty like that.

Lately the song I sing while cleaning out the cat box area is: Rock the CATBOX!!

If The Clash only knew what I did to their song…

  1. Suz - where to start??? LOL! Quit buying those big girl panties! I've seen your photos - you have to be a small. Now w/ my junk in the trunk - I still think I can make a medium - ha,ha! And I like your song - rock the cat box. Wish I could train my cat to go outside - I hate cleaning that thing!!

  3. Ah, my silly friend - I love your karaoke mind!

    I'm due for some new undies, thanks for reminding me... love shopping for those. Bras, not so much... it's sooo hard to find a good one :-o

  4. I did not know I could sing while cleaning the litter box.....I'll have to give this some thought!

    Hope you and the family have a nice Sunday.

  6. Me and the lady at the underwear store are on the outs right now! I hope you can't hear the sarcasm in my *voice*.. cuz that would be sad if I was ugly just because YOU can find stuff that fits in whatever teeny little size you really need and I just about needed a valium last time I went bra shopping! I have alwaaaaays worn a C cup since the dawn of time and now they're making everything all push-up'y and skimpy and stuff and I have to buy a D... a DEEEEE (!!!)... to cover up the girlies. And it just ain't the same. No it isn't. sigh. That is all.

    I don't sing when I do the litter box... I don't want the cat to get any more kicks out of watching me take care of her bidness than she probably already gets! LOL

  7. A size 6 and you are buying a large??? Girlfriend, it's time for you to downsize those undies!! ;) I checked out the website - super cute bras!!!

    I make up songs all the time too! Kaeden always says, "THAT'S NOT THE WAY IT GOES!" I try to explain that mommy can make up her own words - it drives him crazy!! LOL!

  10. But what songs do your cats sing while in the litter box?
    maybe it's a song by
    R.E.M. 'Losing My Religion'

    "Let's pee in the corner, Let's pee in the spotlight...."
    :-)

  11. Suz, When I lived in MD, there was a Baltimore TV station with a morning show that preceded GMA. Every Monday, they would have groups of people from local businesses come out and sing, Manic Monday, for coffee and donuts. I will definitely sign the petition.

    My life is an aria. I make up songs about everything I do and often parody existing songs to do it, but sometimes I write my own music too. It keeps people in my home entertained. We should form a club.

  12. I love your musical rendition! This post made me think, "Oh yeah, I have to go clean my cat's litter box!"

    Have a great day and thanks for the smile!

  14. This would be a good time to try these undies...I get their emails all the time...but what size?? I wonder if their sizing is similar to that other bra and panty place...you know...initials v.s.

    Hubby usually cleans our catbox here...and I don't hear him singing...he is usually swearing.

    Enjoy Sunday ~Natalie

  15. This post made me giggle...not sure why! :-D

  16. Honestly, you are too funny! You need a little less panty suz! :)

    You are too stinkin cute lady!

  17. I won't even comment on the "This" only because...well, I'm a male.

    "That" - I agree with you. Manic Monday - ONLY ON MONDAYS.

    "The Other Thing" - "Rock the Catbox"...LMAO. LOVE IT. I just hope it doesn't get in my head like when Bob Herzog of the local CBS station turned the part of New Kids on the Block's song "Hanging tough" that says "We're tough" into "He's stuck, stuck, stuck..." during a Dance Party Friday a year or two back.

  20. ...I found the perfect underwear AND THEY STOPPED MAKING THEM! I even wrote to Hanes and asked why?! All they said was to try other pairs...so sad!

    I change the words to songs too...my kindergartners get hysterical too...they come up with some goodies too...warping them at a young age!

    Happy Sunday, lMnop

  23. In college, my roommate and I used to make up extra lyrics to Manic Monday.... like "get on the scale and weight a TON day..." or "put my hair in a great big BUN day..." or "put on a bikini and lay in the SUN day...."

    Hey. When you're 18 it's funny.

    The panty story is hilarious!

  25. You look like a small to me too.
    You are just a wee bit larger than tinker bell. Don't try to trick me.
