Open Mouth, Insert Foot
April 30, 2007
You may recall, good readers, that I brunched and spent time with the friends last weekend. I might have mentioned, also, that we’re all at different places in our financial lives. Purtroppo (unfortunately), I forgot that one of the girls I could always rely on to be a fellow starving-college-student budgeteer is now working a real job with real pay and … is living on her own with no dependents.
As she lamented her recent weight loss but not in the *ahem* assets, that made a $150 dress fit perfectly but for one key area, I said, “Hey, it’s a good thing you can’t fit into a dress you can’t afford anyway, right?”
Friend: “Of course I can afford it.”
*thwomp* Now where did my foot go…? Ahh… yes.
