The Fashion Bug here in town moved out of the strip mall it has been in for the last 10 yrs and moved to a new mall that has been recently built. The store reopened yesterday. Naturally you know I had to go "check it out" . It seems a bit smaller than the other, but the location is much nicer.
Now, I happens that my grandson had a soccer game today and I stopped in to the F.B. before we left for the game. Didn't get anything to speak of except for two pair of gym pants. Anyhow, when I got home, wife says to me, "Where did you go?"
I says, "Had to go check out the new Fashion Bug. Wanted to see what it looked like." Her comment, "Oh Ok." and nothing more was said.
Take it as some kind of acceptance on her part, or just plain giving up.
Second thing that happened.
At the soccer game while watching us loose (again) I was talking with some of the moms, (Cold today and wife sat in car to watch). One of the Mothers works at the local Home Depot. The new mall I mentioned has a Lowes opening in it. I commented that I drove through the area to look. She asked me what I thought. Noted that it seemed ok and mentioned that the new Fashion Bug was opened. In a very matter of fact way she asked me if I stopped in to look at it. Caught me a bit off guard for a second but I said that I thought it was a bit smaller than the other. Went on to mention that right next to it was a store named Maurice, which also sells clothes, but for the younger and more trendy crowd. But that the sizes would fit her. She's about a 10 at most.
From the way she asked me if I had stopped into the F.B. I almost would think that she's "guessed correctly". But I'm not going to come out and spill the beans. If that was a "test" question then I guess I passed. Somehow I have a feeling that if she "knew" it wouldn't bother her too much, but like I said, I'm not gonna confirm any suspicions.
