You know you're from Port Huron if...

So the other day, I go to my fav grocery store, pop my MP3 player on (yes, I am one of "those" people - I listen to my MP3 player while shopping - who am I gonna talk to in there anyways?) and start browsing up and down the aisles, carefully considering my purchases, wondering if I should buy that candy. No, then yes, then no...then finally yes...hahaha. Diet starts again on Monday I swear! That dress isn't gonna fit!! Anyways...I'm walking down the pasta aisle, my very favorite aisle of all aisles and BAM. This is the defining moment - the one that makes you stop and wonder, what the heck is SHE thinking? Down my aisle comes another female shopper - in her bathing suit. A tankini, with a skirt. And flip flops. And her body type was as big, if not maybe a little bigger than mine. GIRLFRIEND....do you have no shame? Who told you it was okay to wear your bathing suit into the grocery store? For crying out loud! Put a shirt and shorts on, is it that hard?

Does this happen everywhere else, or am I just blessed to run into it in the Port? Do tell...

HA! I've been guilty of it myself. When you have the tankini with skirt, it feels like a shirt and skirt. . . I know. . .I'm a lame old redneck. I've actually only done it twice. Once was in Mexico and it was 104 degrees, and I got more stares than an elephant would have while walking down the isle! Very out of place. Another time was in MIchigan, and it was just a pary store, but STILL!

I am the pajama person. I have some dignity! But I always see parents with little girls in swimsuits. Is it that hard to throw on a t-shirt?

OMG. Happens all the time here in the guuuuhetttooo. For some reason the really big women think it's okay to just flop about in their swim suits. Scaaaaarrrrry.

And the whole pajama thing? *Ahem, Alida* happens every morning at my kids' school. People, leave the pjs at home and put on your clothes!
