The following could either stay here as an indication of my comfort level or be moved to the clothing section, either way here it is:
“We could play ‘dress up’ “
That’s what she said.
Backing up a bit.
I had gone into my local Dress Barn store to pay off my monthly statement. Of course while there I spent a few moments chatting with the Mgr. about most anything and everything, nice pleasant small talk. She had even asked me if there was anything I was looking for or that she could sell me. Being rather broke at this time and actually not needing anything (NOT NEED ANYTHING??? What kind of CD er am I?) I declined her offer. That sort of lead the conversation around to a private shopping party they’re planning. The idea is to have customers enter their name and at some point a drawing will be held, and the winner will have the entire store to themselves, with all the Sales Assistants in attendance at their beck and call. Of course you just know I put in my name. This lead onto the idea of having a “private shopping time just for CD s “ The Mgr. noted that they have about 4 or 5 other “regular” customers besides me that shop there. (Glad to see I’m not the only one) I mentioned that she should ask the others when they come in if that sounded like a good idea, and if it was worth the time she figured she’d do it.
Got to laughing and joking about what a fun time that would be and I mentioned that I’d leave all my free will outside and allow myself to become their own “Ken doll” to do with as they wished, that’s when she said. “We could play dress up” My heart actually skipped a beat at hearing that.
Not exactly sure just when this would happen , if at all, but if anybody happens to frequent the Kittery Maine Dress Barn, let them know you’re interested.
I so love the freedom I've found. To be able to openly speak to somebody.
