                I hear crying coming from the other room so I hasten to investigate. I find Samantha wearing a wig and trying hard to hold back the tears while Grammy is trying to console her.

                “What’s wrong?” I ask.

                “Oh, we bought this Hannah Montana wig but I’m afraid it’s not exactly what Sam was hoping for,” Grammy tells me.

                “I don’t look anything like Hannah Montana!” Samantha explains between the tears.

                 Grammy and I take turns telling Samantha how we’ve both bought things and couldn’t wait to get them home, only to be disappointed.

                With me it’s shirts. I’ll see a shirt in a store that I think is the coolest thing since sliced bread and  I’m convinced that just putting it on will make me look like George Clooney, but when I get it home and try it on I look more like Rosemary Clooney. I actually bought one shirt that I never even wore; I just ended up giving it to Goodwill (anonymously because I didn’t want the clerks pitying me).

                                                                                * * * * * *

Bonus discussion questions:

#1) What have you been disappointed in when you got it home?

#2) What makes sliced bread so great?

#3) And what was the greatest thing before sliced bread?

#1) So many thing I've lost count and anyway I try to put that behind me and move on, but then I don't have children that I need to pass on such valuable consolations to.

#2) If you've ever had fresh homemade bread, which I'm sure you probably have, and if you've had to try and cut off a slice for yourself then the answer should be self evident, especially if you can't cut very well.

#3) Dunno, I'm not that old either.

See, you don't know how lucky you are to be young. Imagine always having to cut your bread!

i bought a blackberry storm and returned as soon as i could, every ti e i used it i got more disgusted

did you know slice bread didnt really get the attention you think it took a while before it caught on, sliced bread is equally cute bread so the slices are all the same thickness plus food is made to be put on it like sliced cheese and prepackaged cold cuts

My phone is very basic, but then I never actually use it, but Nancy has me carry it in case of an emergency. A one point Nancy was carrying both our phones! LOL

i dont see the thing how cell phones are so important, i prefer a mini computer with phone cabalities, which the new hp mini netbook is addressed a phone number but they wont let you make phone calls from it, which is mendacious shenanigans, but i could hook up a voip account and use that instead so i need to buy two phone numbers and only ones usable, and it has bluetooth connectivity so you could rock the ear peiece and everything would be good, they give us backwards technology to bleed more money out of us instead of using fowards technology to advance the world, but cell phones are a pain to carry

I too have a shirt bought about 25 years ago whish I have never worn. Whenever I think about giving it away I say I'll wear it next time I go out to a party and get it laundered.

1.  lots of clothes but since i shop at thrift stores i don't mind donating them to a ministry for the homeless.

2.  actually, it isn't.  ok, so it is tidy and uniform and makes good looking sandwiches.  to keep it all nice and soft after it is sliced takes a lot of preservatives. ick.  slice it yourself bread may not slice so pretty but it is much tastier.

3.  chester a. arthur

the greatest thing before sliced bread was cheese. Cheese is still great, but the sliced bread makes it even better :p

LOL! great blog!

I have definitely experienced the "it looked better on the hanger" syndrome. That is why that I always try them on in the store unless I have no time whatsoever and I feel it will sell out before I come back.

But things always look better in the store, even if i try them on...I think it's the lighting they use.

Wow, you didn't like the whole house! That really stinks, you can't drop that off at Goodwill or just throw it away.

Where have you gone?

#1) My last gf.
#2) The consistency of the slices.
#3) The Wheel.  Still better than sliced bread in my opinion.  (prior to the wheel I think it was fire)
