xs
I walked into Panera and caught Natalie‘s eye. She’d arrived before us and ingeniously snagged a table near an outlet. (Outlet = plug for laptop = internet.) We both smiled so big our eyes scrunched shut. Those are the best kinds of smiles.
I hurried over to her corner and gave her a big hug. “Your shirt looks so familiar to me,” she said after the initial how-are-yous and you-look-so-fantastics.
“Really?”
“Yeah. Maybe—” Before she could suggest that maybe she’s seen me wearing it before, something catches her eye. She stops mid-sentence, leans over, and points to my boob. (Yes, I just said “boob” on my blog.)
My eyes follow her finger.
And I see a size sticker, clear as day, announcing to the world what size my boob shirt is.
“Nope. Obviously the shirt is new,” she remarked. We burst out laughing as I hastily yanked off the sticker.
Now that’s what friends are for!

I’m so glad you got to see her. That’s hilarious. :)
Too funny!
I assume that xs means “extra small”…….I guess that could be good and bad…….Good because that’s a nice size, but bad because it was on your boob! :) ha!
good catch, sarah.
and yeah — “xs” on my boob… sad but true!
hey if I fit into a “xs” shirt (or anything) I would show it off too!!! But as how I don’t, I destroy all tags immediately for fear I will be walking around with a “L” or “size10″ on my butt!
ha ha!

I love the fact that friend’s have our backs, shirts, and boobies!! I laughed so hard at this.
This would totally be me. Not the XS part, but the stickers anyways :)
@atangie says:
What is the Christianese term for jealousy? Oh yeah… “You are so blessed!” said with a fakey smile of course. :-]
You are so blessed to be able to eat at Panera
You are so blessed to be able to wear a size sx
You are so blessed to have such a good friend
You are so blessed to be able to hang out with that friend
Seriously though, I am happy for you; that is so awesome that you got to hang out with her :-) (real smile).
DaRonn and I tote our laptops to restaurants in the States too.
This morning I got together with some great missionary mommy friends here – there is nothing compared to being with people you love and people who love you.
heidi — you cracked me up with your comment. “I love the fact that friend’s have our backs, shirts, and boobies!!” INDEED!
gigi… i hear you. totally. i always feel that same way when i’m back in africa.
and yes — i AM blessed. and i’m trying to soak up every moment!
loved this :) So glad you got to see Natalie… and got to enjoy some Panera…. scrumptious :)
I come over to see what was happening on your blog and I see “toe cleveage” and “boob” size. I guess it’s girl talk on “grit and glory” to day. :)
The only thing I will add that when you say the word “cleavage” no guy in the world is going to look at your feet. :)
haha! Too funny! I’ve had those moments. :) Ed’s comment made me laugh too. :D
;)
I forgot to add…”shaking my head…and laughing”
Ha… after getting home from work not long ago, I needed that laugh! :)
ed —- is this just too weird of a discussion for a co-ed audience?
re: your comment on my blog…
my response is…
i’m so glad we’re friends, friend.
love you.
me, too, roobles. me, too…
I would like to emphasize that I was in the middle of talking when I simply stopped, stared and pointed at her boob. In retrospect it was a very strange and tactless way of letting her know there was a sticker on her shirt, but we both got a laugh out of it so all’s well that ends well.
Also, it is so awesome that you blogged about this! I hoped you would!
My dreams are coming true.
you hoped i would? that made me smile really big. i’m glad i’m a part of your dreams coming true, friend.
for you? anything.
And here I thought nothing could top “toe cleavage…”
i know, i know… america is having a bad effect on me…
I, at this juncture, feel it appropriate to point out your blogs concerning ‘going Commando’ and ‘blogging with your pants around your ankles and sitting on the crapper’ whilst back in ‘God’s Country’ and am thinking it is not entirley America’s ‘fault’ Leesh! :-)
and that’s about all i have to say concerning the last two posts – trust me, no-one would want to hear my comments!
I, Ed and NE’er are doing our best to continue the illusion some might still hold here that we are Gentlemen!
Temptation is the LAST thing we need! :-X
<B
::blush:: sorry bub… ;-)
i’m choking.
well… not really. but i’m sure my neighbors are wondering why in the world i’m cackling SO loud over here.
thx for the laugh.
wow……
ha ha! i’m glad it made you laugh!
i think the funniest part was your side narration… and, well, also the fact that you don’t seem to have a problem implying XS = boob size. i’m just sayin’ (and, yes, you can delete this comment if need be
besides. at least she stopped her finger in the pointing position – and didn’t actually grab the sticker & pull it off!!!
ha ha! you are right on all counts!
:)
smiling AGAIN! i’m too happy to sleep tonite… well. not really. but i AM really happy to have had an alece moment or two today.
yeah – you’re up late tonight. ::SHOCK:: i’m really glad i had some mandy moments, too. this has been such a good “friend weekend” for me.
i think i’m gonna go to sleep smiling…
smiling for sure. me too….
but don’t worry. i haven’t written something funny in here and then erased it but told you that it was funny and that i was laughing inside.
i wouldn’t do that to you.
no
not me.
i’m too nice.
;)
i would at least send it to you via email, if i didn’t want the whole world to know….
i’m just sayin.
enough silly-ness!!!

i’m so glad y’all were up late ( and glad you had a wonderful weekend, Leesh! ) :-)
<B
ha ha, bub. i know – “too nice”?!?! who’s she trying to kid? i’ve seen what she’s done to tam.
you THINK i went to sleep… but i didn’t. i was laughing too hard.

way to exercise self-control!
(no condemnation here. i’m exactly the same way!)
and… trouble?! high-five, bub!
;-)
self-control? now hanging my head in shame… ;)
you DID go to bed (or at least stop commenting!), so that really is self-control…
