Damn Laundry

****

I've got a mountain of laundry ahead of me tonight. I'm
not looking forward to it at all. Actually, I'm thinking
about pushing it on the floor and doing it tomorrow. I
mean, who's here to stop me? I did get the entire house
spotless. Why should I stay up until the wee hours,
putting away clothes that could easily wait until the
civilized hours of tomorrow afternoon? The answer is
simple. I'm easily sidetracked and may find something else
to do more fun than laundry, end up getting home late and
then yet another day goes by that I don't get it done.
I'll be up until midnight anyway. I might as well be doing
something constructive. Watching Food Network's turkey
roasting 101 shows and eating peanut butter filled
pretzels (all while wondering how they get the peanut
butter inside) isn't good for my "bottom" line, if you
know what I mean. I can almost feel my butt spreading just
thinking about it. Yeah, I'm doing laundry tonight. I just
scared myself.

I've discovered the joys of victoriassecret.com! Having
nothing to do (but the damn laundry) after putting the
girls to bed, I thought I'd check it out. They have
CLOTHES. Real clothes! I always knew that. I'd just never
really thought about buying stuff online. You can't try
things on, but I don't plan on buying any bras online.
Certain thing I just know will work. Like outerwear. I
bought a boucle kimono-style sweater for $29.00 on
clearance! It was regularly $69.00! I also got some modal
gaucho pants in white ($14.99, regularly $24.99), a
shockwave sport bra ($9.99, regularly $40.00) and a free
Body By Victoria ultra smooth seamless thong in ivory
($12.00) for using my angel card. I could have gotten them
yesterday, but I didn't have my passbook (the angel card
coupon book I lure people in with) on me. All told, it
came in under $60.00. Snookums doesn't have to know. I pay
my card with my paycheck, not that there's a damn thing he
can say or do about it, anyway.

Okay, I really need to go do that stupid laundry now. It
ain't going to hang itself. Snookums said if I lay off the
VS sprees, he'll think about getting me a maid. I don't
forsee either of these things happening (shopping brings
me happiness, I refuse to stop and no one would meet my
cleaning standards). Ciao!
