We're gay like that.Steve got some pants at Ruehl that make his body (and by "body" I mean "bum") look amazing. Yes, they were a little expensive, but can you really put a price on a nice looking ass? Well, yeah, I guess you can if you're a hooker. Or hiring one. Whatever. It was worth the cash, that's all I'm sayin'...
We also spotted some cute sweaters at Express Men, and since my mom hates giving gift cards we realized these would be affordable gifts we'd use. But instead of sending my mom to the store in San Diego so she can try and figure out what we exactly want-- which invariably will end up with a bear or horizontal lines on it-- we decided to take photos. We then e-mailed them to my hip sister, Eileen, who is in charge of making sure Mom doesn't purchase said bear or girth-increasing lined items.From those photos, my sister Eileen sent me this letter.
Do you even understand how funny these pictures are to me?
#1 You are taking pictures of their clothes while you are in the store.
#2 You made the effort to smile in pictures of you in clothes that are not yet yours.
#3 You laid the sweater on the ground in the dressing room so you could photograph it.#4 Argyle... Seriously... When did that come back?
#5 Go back to #1 because that is TOOO funny.
#6 I am picturing the manager coming over and asking you to remove the sweater and stop taking pictures.
(NOTE FROM RICK: This did not happen, but I was approached by a customer who and his four year old daughter. With a pair of pants in hand, he asked me if I had another pair in his size somewhere in the back of the store. When I explained that I didn't work at Express Men and why we were taking photos, he looked at me like I was crazy, took hold of his little girl who was now staring up at me with fascination, and quickly scurried away.)
#7 It's like you two were out playing modeling together.
#8 I totally see this as a Seinfeld episode.
#9 You guys are totally posing (with no shame) in different areas of the store near displays. So So funny!
HILARIOUS. I will share w/ mom.

I love humor when it's too early to be awake!
My mom learned the joy (my joy) of gift receipts before she gave up all together and started handing me cold, hard, cash.
Ugh though, this year she actually asked me what I wanted for xmas....as if she's forgotten we like the money or something...sigh.
Too funny! But be careful or Miss Tyra's going to try to book you both on America's Next Top Model.
i am wearing the argyle sweater that you (Rick) have on as I type this. Their argyle sweaters are quite cute-I bought 4 of them
You're spot on with taking photos in the clothes that you want. I don't ask for clothes anymore because of some horrible things I've got in the past. Now I just direct family to my amazon wishlist where many a gadget and video game wait to be sent to me.
hehe nice post, rick!
I recently took a picture in a store in Bern (Switzerland) - only a few short seconds later some kind of store-spy was standing next to me and asking me if I had a "store photographer licence". I was just like "WTF?". He said you have to have a licence in order to be allowed to take ANY pictures in the store.
not normal... haven't taken any pictures in Swiss stores since then anymore LOL I might check it out in other stores, though. Maybe I even get arrested for taking some pics.
