preppy
there's a funny line in "drive me crazy," a movie i watched in a hotel room in dc (long ago business trip) because i had nothing better to do.
chase: i didn't expect you to fall in love.
dulcie: i didn't expect you to fall into the gap.
all right, it isn't that funny, but it got an unexpected laugh out of me. when i told cam, he all but rolled his eyes, but he just doesn't have the same love of teen romantic comedies that i do. (i love them in their innocence. not so big on the teen sex comedy -- never saw any of the "american pie" movies and their ilk -- but "zapped!" is a classic. hate adult romantic comedies. blech.)
anyway, i thought of this line because of the gap, a store i usually avoid. i'm going to have to revise that policy. just learned today gap online is now offering a limited petite selection. (i mean, i knew they were going to do it, but didn't realize they had already started selling anything.) i was delighted to see that one of the few sweaters they are offering in petite sizes is a green-striped rugby sweater. green. striped. rugby. swoon! it is so mine. is it any coincidence that i am listening to steve as i type this? bless gap's little corporate heart.
