Friday, November 13 2009 - Clothes Shopping Adventures

Finally - FINALLY – found some clothes that fit me.

I hate shopping. Always have. I like to browse stuff to my leisure, but it always feels like assistants dog my heels and that makes me nervous (I know, by the way; ‘Grow a pair.’ I know, I know. But this is my blog, and we’re talking about me right now). Also, here in China nothing ever fits me. So a whole afternoon of walking around, being bored and being awkward, might only result in a single shirt or sweater.

But then there is the Wal-Mart. Which I guess exports clothes to the US. 99 percent of the stuff still doesn’t fit me, but today I found a light sweater with matching vest that didn’t look too hideous on me, fit me well and didn’t cost an arm and a leg. So hooray. The last time I honestly and truly got some good clothes here in China was 8 months ago in Hangzhou.
