Strange List

I see some strange things here in the London :

1. The other day coming out of the gym I saw these tourists, Chinese to be exact, with cameras around their neck and they were taking pictures of everything (TRUE STORY) including the sign that read "Fire door, keep shut" ...now what in the heck do you need a picture of that for?! I mean, Melissa Mangan takes pictures of signs like nobody's business but at least they are relevant, like our street sign or something not the fire door!

2. Girls carrying around fabulous bags but look like they should be wearing a bag too! I mean they don't even try to look nice...there hair is all messed up, no makeout, clothes are baggy and don't match and then BLING...there is the biggest new LV* you have ever seen on their arm. I mean given their rating went from like a 1 to 5 by just carrying the bag, but at least try!

*Side note 1 - LV = Louis Vuitton, if you did not know please peruse around their website and become familiar with Anne's Favorite Things xoxo

3. Polos at the gym. Yep that is right its completely normal to sport a "popped collar" while huffing it on the treadmill. Is this strange or what? I wonder what people would say if I walked in to the Y in Charlotte with gym shorts and pink lacoste shirt, collar up. These people are really rocking the look

4. People saying things like "And he did not even query it!"...I'm so used to words like query (question), queue (line), lift (elevator) that I barely even notice them anymore. But I should confess when I was trying to make my magnificent fajitas I need cilantro and it was no one to be found, I asked the store guy and I just stared at me and said " I have no idea what you are talking about" - now this is a usual response when talking to burr, or in my case blabbing about nothing, but not from the grocery store man! I wandered around spelling all these green things that looked like cilantro until a woman finally said "Daaahhhhlling...its coriander here" - oh well they should label these things!

That is enough strange things for now, do you think its odd that last week I spent 3 full days eating breakfest, lunch, and dinner at work! And I did it again yesterday. Wish me luck today!
