Dress = STRESS

Here's the deal.

Saturday, we go into the dress shop and they STILL have dresses from prom time last year. None of the dresses on the wall catch my eye, NONE of them are attractive. Well DUH, because I saw them all 6 months ago; BORING! The lady that is ALWAYS working remembers me because I've been a customer for the longest time. She told me that a new shipment of 30 - 40 dresses will be in on Tuesday. So I told her I'd come back.

I went back Tuesday at 2:00, like she said, and... NADA! Nothing arrived because the UPS truck broke down and the FedEX truck was running late, so I was like FML! She said to come back Wednesday and the shipments will have arrived.

So we go back today, and... 6 dresses ! ARE YOU FCKING KIDDING ME?! You said 30 - 40, not SIX! And two of them were SHORT dresses, which I DO NOT want. So basically, FOUR! And they were hideous. Well cute, but not my style, whatsoever. She said the final shipment should be coming in later today, so I said I'd call to check in. I call at 5 o'clock and NOPE, the shipment is STILL not in. Uhhh, straight FML! So I gave her my number so she can call me when they finally DO arrive.

I'm picky when it comes to dresses. And for this occasion, I want a long gown. It's not her fault, but she shouldn't tell me the shipment will be in when she's not 100% sure. And UPS/FedEX need to get on top of their game. My point is, I loathe the fact that I'm always on top of my game and stick to my word. I always follow through, always. You can count on me, I'm dependable. Why do other people make that such a difficult thing to be?

ANYWHO: I had an alternative... I went to a bridal shop and found an amazing dress :) I think I like it. We'll see what happens!

Homecoming dress shopping = STRESS!

But I couldn't be happier that I made Homecoming Court =D !

LESSON LEARNED: Do NOT make one thing/person you're priority, because there are PLENTY of more options. And, the only person you can depend on is yourself, especially if you're trying to make important/special things happen.
