The best thing I do is procrastinate. I’m driving to California next month to enjoy Tamar’s, my granddaughter, Bat Mitzvah. What have I done to prepare? Made an appointment with the neighborhood car guys to thoroughly examine Matilda the Mazda for road worthiness, planned my route to CA … I’m leaving the trip home open to where the unknown roads take me… and nothing else. Other than begin this blog.
I need clothes; for the Sabbath dinner, the Bat Mizvah ceremony and the evening Celebration. I don’t like to shop for clothes, I buy clothes on a whim and what I buy is appropriate for work at the bookstore, or casual outings, but not for these events.
Today was supposed to be my day to shop, so I bought gas at my friend Buddy’s Go Green Biofuels station, and told him about my mission. He suggested a consignment shop I wasn’t familiar with (we’re all about recycling). So I went there.
Gasp, everything I considered looked like something my mother would wear. AARGH.
I drove home and read my friend Sallie’s novel in progess.
Maybe next Monday, my next day off, I’ll shop for the right outfits.
I still have time.
