I actually really like this dress. I'll probably wear it again to some other weddings. I just can't imagine paying $265 for a dress other than my wedding dress...

I should have updated you guys about my usher situation. I called my fiend, and it took him 2 weeks to call me back (he's doing his internship year as a doctor), and by that time, I couldn't order the dress. Clearly, I was devastated...so now, I'm just wearing a purple dress with a flower. His colors are purple and green. It worked out perfectly.
glad the usher business worked out well.
i've never gone home and then gone back to return stuff...i usually make the decision while i'm there but they aren't too smart when you return online orders for sure. i was returning a pair of pants and the woman scanned my receipt and the item, then told me she can't refund me because i paid "0". It was ridiculous. the receipt clearly stated the price yet she told me i paid 0, which i didn't. Anyway, i told her this is an online return... then she said oh then i'd have to do it differently.
You can probably just sell that BM dress for the price you paid. :n od: I just finally sold my BM dress on the bay for half the price I paid. Glad to be rid of that ill-fitting dress! : )

I actually forgot something worse.... I actually left the diaper bag... with 2 sippy cups full of milk. Will rot there for two months. Only other thing important there is the small camera I wanted to take for quick pictures, though we brought the big camera. DH and my sister don't get how I would forget that :l ol:
oh no... the sippy cups!
Is there another JCP you could go to? I love the ship to store option, but I never pick the packages up. DH & DS haven't complained about a long wait or incompetent employees though. DH complains about VS, so JCP must not be too bad.
Redwood National Park is beaaaauuuutiful! I would put it up there with the parks in Nevada (Arches, Bryce Canyon, Zion) that I love so much. The car mates were lucky there wasn't enough room in the trunk for them . Here's the biggest surprise of them all- while wifezilla was as rude as heck and just wanted to play drinking games and not explore (Yeah, that's why we flew in & drove 7 hours
...
aren't those parks in Utah?
your camping trip sounds... comically awful. i hope this horrible experience will help your DH to never plan anything with them again.

The best interviews are the ones I feel that you get excited about
yeah the sailors seem pretty inconsistent in sizing. the trousers are for me too - some i can pull off without unbuttoning and some will stop at my hips (this is what i need) - oh well - i don't need so many anyway.
BTW - those trousers are weird fitting on you! Just so odd. I guess I got lucky.
hehe. I don't actually LIKE the dress. It was the dress I liked the most out of the two that we actually had to make a decision on. I just looked like a giant umbrella for sure! And the V-neck felt like it was ALL THE WAY DOWN THERE. And I had to tape everything up

The neon blue trouser shorts work for me in 2. I might need a 0 for the black, but I don't want to size down, so I will either have to wear a belt to make sure they don't slide off (hah) or else I'll exchange them. Luckily the neon blue color is very different from that sailor blue so I don't mind having both.
I have another pair of trouser shorts I got a few years ago from Old Navy that I always considered to be short, and I compared them to the Express ones - they're an inch longer.
oh ok... well glad i'm not the only one that had issues. i was annoyed last time because i was there, she called for the packages, they all arrived within like 3 minutes of her calling it in... and then i waited at the register for another 30 minutes, staring at my packages, because she was helping someone ORDER SOMETHING ONLINE FOR SHIP TO STORE. uh, yeah - do that at home - don't waste the SA and all the other customers' time!
i agree about the hassle. i never order unless i have a 5 off anything or 10 off 25 code.

i'm going to do one of those customer satisfaction surveys and say how terrible the arcadia store is. they really need to train their SA's better!

Sounds horrific with the zilla's! Sad about DH friend though, eh some get lost to thier wives (which makes you think ...I will leave the R-rated out of this
Thanks again ladies for the good wishes! My interview lasted over 30 minutes, but didn't offer me the position or give me the "we will talk soon" I am a dumb*ss didn't ask how much it paid, LOL, but it's 95% all from home, and I actually don't care as long as it's more than free! I have friends and such who could watch ds if I had to go in for a meeting. It was kinda exciting interviewing! LOL ... well tiem for the weekend and hopefully Happy Hour with moms and kids at an outdoor restaurant! LOL
Yes, go! It's a long way from SoCal, but the drive to and through the park is so easy, not scary at all (it's not mountain driving - has lots of lanes, not very many switchbacks). We saw Redwood Trees (#3 largest in the world, they won't tell you which one #1 or #2 are), Banana Slugs, giant ferns, Osprey (cool looking bird), Grey Whales (2 pair of momma and baby), largest heard of Elk in the world...neat stuff. I guess they filmed parts of Jurassic Park there!
Congrats on scoring the interview, crossing my fingers you get the call saying you got the job soon!

Yes, ma'am... they're in Utah, not Nevada
Comically awful sounds spot on accurate
1) roll down the window "pfft, is the air coming from the vents not fresh?"
2) take dramamine (I had a less-drowsy formula) "I don't want to be drowsy" - so you'll sleep in the car or be sick, your choice, but if you're not going to do it then
3) drink ginger ale "I don't need that sugar"
4) sit in the front seat "that won't help"
5) turn the air on cooler "then I will get cold" - he set the backseat air at 78 deg.
Instead he asked us to drive slower...
