So, I'm old. Yesterday I went to the mall and decided to go into Hollister, because I had lots of time to kill. I finally made it in with the stroller and all, and some kid that worked there said, "chiusdggjflasd lkdfjas lkfajk djkaf" thumbs up on the last part. I said, "What?" and moved closer.
"cheoing oseoirs o ivlkj djajgds" again thumbs up.
Again I said, "What?" He kind of sighed and said again with a smile and thumbs up, "cheoi soaifi fajffj slkdjfka ladjkf."
I said, "yeah," then he replied, pointing, "it's the braces, I think I mumble."
I thought, no, it's me, I'm old, pre-occupied trying to swerve my son out of arms reach of anything, and can't hear, let alone think, over the BLARING music. Yes, I'm old. That's all, oh, but I did realize later, you guys might want to hit Hollister, and "check out their summer shorts, they're great." (Thumbs up.)

That is so funny because the same thing happened to us. Same store and everything. But we figured out that the kid was saying "Check out our new summer shorts. They're Hot!" We looked around and couldn't find out what he was talking about because all we could see were undies with pockets. Those things are so short!! I also liked the girl swiming suit bottoms with a braided belt on top of it. Like you are going to hang out in those. It's like it's an outfit or something. I guess Nicole and I are old too.

Sorry I already told you this on the phone. It is just when I read it, I got all mad again. That place is so dark and loud and very non-handicap accessible. I want to file a lawsuit, but that reminds me of that one Arrested Development where Maybe acts sick to have charity events for her. And Lindsey told her to threaten a lawsuit because it's free if you just threaten.
The answer is to always threaten to file a lawsuit. In fact, if you are ever in doubt, just ask yourself: wwjd?- what would j(r. or jason gomez) do? If it is a situation where they would say that they are going to tell their dad, and he's a cop, that is the ideal situation to say you are going to file a lawsuit. And I may be working for Bob Laublah, LLC pretty soon, so we might want to get in on this class action. It is outrageous, egregious and abomidable! Mostly I just steamed cuz when I went in there, they asked if I was picking up my son Ricky because his mumbling-inane-monthly-sales-pitches shift was over (they thought I was that old). I think it should be called Holla sir- cuz they also call me that when I go in there, which is like all the time, since me and Ricky have started hanging out (he knows all the secret codes to video games, and we both like to pretend we surf and play polo).
I just find myself trying to hear when everybody laughs- then I laugh too. It has worked pretty well so far.
Summer shorts?! SUMMER SHORTS?! Or did he mean to say daisy dukes aka panties?! I must be super old then, cause last time I went into hollister, besides being embarassed about my strolled as well I was completely blushing at the lack of length at their bottom garments! All I have to say is at least I'm not young and have to think about possibly wearing those things! Can you imagine the cottage? ok TMI :)
I just buy clothes online now. I can't shop in that store... I feel like a blind sardine. Kids can definitely complicate things that once used to be no sweat.
lol...i hear ya, girl. hey, at least you attempt to shop in those cool stores. and you of course, always look cute, hip, and trendy. i, on the other hand...find myself just shopping at stroller friendly stores such as target & department stores aka "pennys." Before you know it, i'll be hitting up dress barn.
I went in there one time when I was in san diego w/my laurel group...they thought it was the best store! i felt really old!
