Sports Authority...

is not Cabela's. This store is a miserable place. The dressing rooms are crappy, the people DO NOT enjoy their jobs, and there are absolutely NO stuffed animals around. We went today to get the Under Armor Cold Gear system and after I got done with trying stuff on , I had to get out of that store! We went to the one up by Daniel in Keller and I CANNOT recommend that place. If you are in need of sports/warm gear, get it somewhere else... I understand the principal of put little in, take a lot out, but geez louise - that place was so depressing I didn't even take pictures.

Cabela's adventure

Has anyone been to Cabela's? Its a playground for hunters with water features, guns, clothes, tools, camping stuff, shoes, and STUFFED ANIMALS. No, I don't mean Winnie the Pooh, but big, huge game hunted by the owner! From an elephant (I almost cried) to badgers and otters, and everything in between. Now, I thought I would be appalled, but this store is fun! The people are friendly and who woulda thought you could walk around in there for hours!!! I told Daniel we need to come back for date night and shoot some guns up in the practice range. They have kettle corn, snacks, and even a sandwich shop! This store is a BONANZA! I know Daniel was embarrassed b/c I HAD to start taking pictures, but I don't care - its a wonderland and I don't care who knows what I think. Several years ago when my tax money went to help build it, I was pissed off, but now, I can't wait to go again! And hell, I have to get my tax money's worth - all $75 of mine! We got our thermal underwear for DC and even glove liners - this place is just too much. I think I'm going to have a lunch group meet up there or something... Imagine, tea among the caribou or near the moose pond, or overlooking the stuffed, mounted antlered-animals perched high on the walls. Just hold me back, people...

Warm Clothes!

So, Daniel and I have been researching warm clothes and Daniel is a researching genius! There's all this warm stuff to wear that won't weight us down. I am completely in awe of the variety of warm/wicking/comfortable clothes made of spandex, etc... I still have one problem with stuff like UnderArmor... Men's clothes have a convenient little flap for ease of restroom use. Women have no such ease of use. We still have to pull down our whole getup and freeze off our ass and the "Penelope Pitstop" to use the restroom. HOW IS THIS FAIR? Can I get something with a full front-to-back zipper? I mean, even a half-way zipper would work. There must be an enterprising designer who can help me - I'll market it and we'll both get rich!!!

So anyway, my mom bought me hiking boots, which I need to go try on - hope they fit. If they do, I'm gonna wear those bad boys every day 'til the big day so they can be broken in and I don't have to tend to blisters or hurt feet. And I need Inaugural panties - plain panties won't do! I great, comfortable panties for miles of walking. OK, maybe I don't need them, I just want them, and no SHAMEKKA, I am not throwing them on the stage... What a tramp...

OK, its bedtime. Later, people!!!
