Holiday shopping I Am Feeling Weak….
Nov 25
Rebecca Kotch

Okay – well – I slipped – I disobeyed our loyal master Sally – I bought two pairs of CHEAP CHEAP pajama bottoms. (Under $20 for both).
I hadn’t planned on doing this. This was not an intentional purchase. It happened….. on the way to the Toy Department at TARGET. I was with my son who just had two shots at the doctor’s (his MMR and Polio) – and he was still droopy-faced and teary-eyed as we walked into the grand RED-circle store. I told him he could get an early Hanukah present. And as we headed down the main aisle and cut left through the Kids section, we walked smack into the “sleep wear” department. That’s where I saw the flannel plaid and striped cotton pants. In ten seconds flat, both pairs were in my plastic shopping bin.
Truthfully, I am sick of wearing my ex husband’s black Prana yoga shorts to bed – or alternatively, my pair of cotton gym shorts. That’s all I have. And believe it or not it does get cold in LA in the winter. I was sick of being cold. So there you have it. I broke down. I did. I did. I did. Am I guilty? Yes, a tad. But my legs are much happier in the early hours of the morning.

    those sound to me kinda like undergarments (which are allowed on the diet) — just forego panties underneath and I think you can still collect a trophy in 2010.

    I know – thank you Jean — I would like to lobby for pajama pants as the underwear category!

    O.K. undergarments? Hmmmm. I think that’s a stretch but if you need to rid yourself of the ex husband I say do what you have to.
