Friday Fish Wrap: June 3, 2010
Thursday, June 3, 2010 at 19:50 Men, you’ve gotta love this: It only took ten minutes for me to get Mr. Maven into the Patrick James store here in Reno, saw the right sport jacket on the mannequin, asked Mr. Maven if he liked it (nod in the affirmative), picked a 42 Regular off the rack, told Mr. Maven to try it on (nod in the affirmative), told the man to hold it until it went on sale next week … and out the door.
Badda bing, badda boom.
Walking out of the store, I said to Mr. Maven “didn’t I tell you that it would be painless?” He’s walking his daughter down the aisle on July 31st, and like other men who’ve been retired for uh, ‘a while’, he’s getting a bit low on sport jackets that fit around the middle. Hmmmm.
When we pick up the jacket, I’ll select the perfect tie and we’re good to go. I only wish the Mother of the Bride dress was as painless. Yikes.
Can you say Spanx to the Higher Power?
