The mall.
On December 24th.
In his defense, he went to deliver some Christmas cheer to our family hair stylist.
He happened to notice that Victoria’s Secret was EMPTY, so he called me and volunteered to go in and rectify my bra crisis from yesterday.
Granted, all he really did was walk in, hand his cell phone and his credit card to a sales clerk and asked her to meet him back out in the mall. She and I got things squared away in quick order and Spin gets credit for saving the day!
The last thing I heard him say as he made his way into the devil’s lair store was “Awkward.”
God’s honest truth, it was his idea. Not mine.
I’m assuming he made it back out.
Sometimes he is all that.
Update: His text to me after reading this post from the mall. “Nice. You forgot the part about having to walk through that mall with a neon pink pervert alert bag. That was fun.”

Huge Spin Fan. HUGE.
Sent The Husband to buy tampons last week. Yes. I. Did. and you know what? He didn’t mind at all……further evidence we have picked the right men.
Do you know what I said this morning when I woke up? I would LOVE to go to the mall today. I love the Christmas craziness. Especially since I have been done shopping for a month!

Couple of quick VS observations:
1. The store was 75% men. The men you see at VS on Christmas Eve likely have a photo of themselves hanging at the Post Office. I’m just saying.
2. VS ought to have some brown paper sacks in the back room…you know, for guys who don’t want to parade around the mall with a bright pink VS bag. I’m convinced their sales would go up at least 10% if this option were available. I asked the sales lady for a brown paper sack and she looked at me like I had three heads (honey, did you catch a glimpse of the guy next to me…and you’re looking at ME strangely??). I was seriously considering not going through with the transaction…merely because I had to carry the bag to my car. I contemplated stuffing it in my coat, but did not want to raise any shoplifting suspicions. How many others don’t even step foot in your store due to fear of the pink bag???
THIS IS FREE FOCUS-GROUP-OF-ONE MARKET RESEARCH, VS…BUT I ASSURE YOU…10% INCREASE IN SALES IF YOU OFFER BROWN PAPER SACKS.
Merry Christmas to all of Soliloquy’s freaky internet friends.
Spin
I thought all men headed to VS on Christmas Eve, which when you think about it, unless they’re buying those flannel pj’s or cotton underwear, is really a present for them. Am I right, or am I right? Hollaback! (OK, that just sounded freaky and weird coming from a thirty-something-year-old mom … forget I threw that Gwen Stefani slang in there)
Merry Christmas, Blogging Friend … to you and your wonderful family!
Mama Belles last blog post..I think she gets it.
Simply hilarious! I love it – Scratch That! and this post both made me smile — and I was not in the mood to smile
Thanks Soliquoy and Spin
Y’all have officially made my day! And considering I have to venture to the grocery store, it’s probably a good thing I started out with a smile instead of a grouchy frown.
Merry Christmas from one of Soliquoy’s freaky internet friend
You guys are too cute!
Last time I went to a bra store, my husband said Can I go to EB games?? PLEASE?
To which I replied “Yes” Because then he gives me at least 20 mins without the “let’s go now face”
Wow! You got your own personal shopper! Nice! That’s one Christmas present I would LOVE!
pixies last blog post..Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year!
ahem if men doesn’t want to tote around the pervert-neon-pink bag, they should just shop online.
then again, my husband gets out of going to VS afer 11 years together with the reason of, ” i like you naked. no need for lingerie.”
merry christmas!
