Summer shopping

I went to the shops on my own today. It has been a while since I have done so. I usually have Gene by my side.

As we are both shopaholics [incognito], we can wander around the shops for hours without feeling tired. Or bored. 

At times, he would do a "boogey on down" dance and I would just stand there and laugh. 

It is nice to have someone to shop with. 

But tonight, I was shopping for Christmas presents so it was good that I shopped on my own. The boy was at work. 

Managed to pick up the item that I had placed on hold earlier this week. The guy at the counter gift wrapped it for me too. Bonus! 

I tried on a couple of dresses but there was always something that did not look right. The skirt was either too short (although it has a great design) or the back of the dress was too tight looking. Or the cut of the top front of the dress showed too much skin. 

And when I finally found a dress with the perfect cut, the belt that it was meant to come with was missing. Maybe I will look in the city tomorrow to check if the same shop has the dress.

I called Loz "mate" today.

To give you a bit of a background, I usually say "yeah maaaate" in an extremely exaggerated Australian [supposed] accent to tease my friends but I do it so often that it has become a habit. 

[insert laughter here]

So wrong.
