Hello again!  

You have probably realized that all these posts are happening in the same sitting.  I'm playing a bit of catch-up so bear with me..

'Catch-up' actually just reminded me that my sister and I saw a giant 'Catsup' bottle --potentially the world's largest between 1949 and 1999 (although who would attempt to break this record I can't imagine..) along Highway 159 in Southern Illinois - the road between the Goodwill store in Edwardsville and the mall in Fairview Heights if anyone is familiar with the area. ;)  
I also learned that my 18yr old sister did not know that 'catsup' meant 'ketchup' and that they were essentially two different spellings of the same word.  If I am incorrect in this understanding though, please shoot me a message and set me straight!

However, Colleen my sis does deserve some points for preventing me from buying a pair of vintage red  Guess denim shorts.. high-waisted to the point of seriously corseting my stomach.  Whether I am not a true size 3/4 1980s Guess fit size.. or that women of the era wore some stupidly binding shorty shorts.. I am not sure.  But ultimately, she reminded me that a good find isn't very good if you actually look like a muffin-topped, wannabe hipster trying to pull it off.. even if it's only $1.  ;)

Cheers!
