Seersucker Pants
So, today I went to Target and I was enjoying my Taco Del Mar mondo burrito in my car (and spilling some of it down my shirt, further enhancing my lovely ensemble of sweaty sweats, frizzy hair and tomato red face, courtesy of a one hour walk on the trail) and I was people-watching before heading into the store. So, this lady parks and gets out and she's obviously taking her elderly mother on her weekly shopping trip. Mother gets out of the car, and she's wearing those huge sunglasses that old people wear (why?) that look like those things they give you at the eye doctor, holding a cane (in her defense, she was probably half-blind) but here's what she was wearing: seersucker pants, a white blouse, and, I kid you not, a purse shaped like a watermelon. And all I could think was, oh please, someone, please never let me wear seersucker pants and carry a watermelon purse! I know, I'm so mean, I shouldn't make fun of an old lady. Oh, and one more detail - the pants were pulled up to her ribcage and she was wearing a belt. And I'm thinking, she's half-blind so who picked out that outfit? And that PURSE? Yes, the evil daughter. I will never make my mom wear seersucker pants! I promise to dress her in jeans and a t-shirt until the day she dies. And her only accessory will be a glass of CC and water, that I promise you. Anyway, my mom never carried a purse. Much less one shaped like fruit. Geez......
