OMG! I have an interview at a non-profit organization! It is a foundation that does some pretty cool things and I think that I would be good fit, I am qualified and excited. My only problem is that I have nothing to wear to this interview... Let the shopping begin!
Oh that's right, I kinda hate shopping. I've never been any good at it and might be destine to never have a proper fitting suit.
But that will not stop me! I'm off to find a classic business suit. Let the shopping begin...
I live in a relatively small town so options are limited, but I'm sure that I'll find something!

I live in a relatively small town so options are limited, but I'm sure that I'll find something!
Morning :
- Set off to shop early, less people will be out.
- Way fewer people! Also no shop owners or employees, nothing is open. But it will be OK!
- Coffee shops are open so not all is lost, it will still be OK.
- Finally shops are open!
- I find a great light gray suit at the first store, why do I hate shopping this is actually kind of exciting.
- I try on the suit and the top and bottom don't fit quite right, I need a different size.
- Back to the rack...so this suit is only sold in separates and I can find lots of jackets, and they have the right size, really this is going to be a breeze, but where are the bottoms? Noooooooo! They are out, but it is OK they have lots of suits, there must be one that has a top and a bottom that will fit me. And YES! I find the right size, I think.
- I've tried on about 7 suits on by now, and they all have a different fit, so the right size is not the right size unless the right size is also the right fit, I Fucking hate you department store. But I still need a suit, so I move on.
- There are only so many stores that exist in my small town and they mostly sell clothes that I could wear either to the beach or to a basement rock concert not to an interview. So I continue my search.
- I find many cute outfits that are see through???? How the eff am I supposed to wear something mostly see-through to a job interview, why do you make this, do people actually wear this stuff to work, it is in the career section.
- I wish to call my girlfriends they would help me but they are not in town..My friends effing suck why are out of town when I need you!
- I go back to the first store and decide that I will just buy the black jacket that I tried on earlier (and I was really trying to avoid black) and then find black matching pants. I found my size in pants and the colors were really close. The pants were too small! How much weight have I gained! I went up a size and all seemed well.
- I bought the pants and jacket and headed home.
- About two blocks away I realized that I didn't buy a shirt to go under the jacket, and that seemed even worse than the see-though shirts I had been annoyed with for the better part of the day. So I swung into a discount department store and found a nice white blouse that I only assumed would look great with the suit since I couldn't bring it in and try the whole outfit on together.
- Finally I was home and I was done.
- I tried on the suit with the blouse and it was atrocious! Horrible! it was bad. By this time I just sick of shopping and was sure that I could come up with something that was already in my closet to pair with the suit. I finally figure out a combination and finally I was set, I even managed to pick out my jewelry.
- I put on my suit and all my accessories and everything looked great! The only thing was I must not have buttoned my pants yet. I looked down and sure enough they were buttoned and I could pull them right off! They were entirely too big...period bloating...stress coffee...and just sucking at clothes shopping! It was too late I had to head to the interview, I just hoped my pants stayed on!
