Had to share a goofy moment

Been eyeballing suitcases for a while now – I use a wheeled one to carry my stuff to the court house and the one I have is torn and ragged. I thought I found an awesome one in NYC.  Saw it in the window of a shop- it was burgundy Italian Leather. BUT, when I went in the store, the sales man was so obnoxious and up my butt, I left.  I don’t like to shop like that. Hate it even.  So, no sale on a $300.00 bag for that dude.

Enter my friend, Sabrina.  She buys her bags here: http://www.ebags.com/ and she recommended them. I looked there and debated between 2 choices. Another burgundy one with 2 outside pockets and the one I chose.  My paralegal, Darlene,  and I measured the old one  and compared measurements on the ones I was looking at on the web site.

Here comes the goofy part: I told her I liked the burgundy one but the other one was more appealing to me.  She laughed out loud at my inadvertent choice of words.  I didn’t even know I said it. 

AND I know you think it’s the word “appeal” because I’m a lawyer but NO, you’d be wrong- it’s the word “appeal” because the  dang thing is ORANGE!  And what I actually said was “the orange is appealing”

  HAHA- Not spelled “a-peel-ing,”‘  but funny nonetheless.  AND yes, we are easily amused.

Here it is in all its orange, Italian leatherness. AND $100.00 cheaper than obnoxious man’s price.

    Glad I gave you fodder for blogging. It did strike me funny when you said it and yes on long hot summer days we are all too often too easily amused. Can’t wait to see the bag in person =)
