Macy's

We went to Macy's on Friday evening. Having learned our lesson at Crate & Barrel, we first stopped at Trailer Park for margaritas, mac & chees, and sweet potato fries. We set up our registry with Maria, who was disappointed to learn I had already found my wedding dress:

"I don't suppose you've already found your wedding dress?"
"Yup."
"Oh. I'm sure you look very beautiful in it. But if you were to get your dress here, we would have given you 15% off." She stuck the discount card in our little folder just in case I changed my mind.

There was a whole rigamorole to go through when all we really wanted was to get that scanning gun and run around the store - all 9 floors. Eventually we were set loose, after assuring Maria that we did not need her to accompany us. We started with the placesettings and had no trouble agreeing on something by Kate Spade. Ditto no trouble deciding on a towel set. The bedding section proved to be too much for us.

What do you envision our bedroom looking like, j. asked me. I don't. I have no vision. j. didn't believe me, but it's true. We're not going to be in our current apartment for more than another year. And then where? We have no idea what city we're going to end up in. How can I envision any room? So how can I decide on sheets? We needed a few more drinks and more time. As it stood, it was 8:30 and closing time and our buzz had worn off back in flatware.
