It just sew happened...

that I bought something that I've been wanting for quite some time now...Yup, I bought myself a friggin sewing machine. I guess Bear was tired of listening to me the past couple of months whining about wanting to buy one, so the other day he says to me at work, "I found this dealer at xx shop and he's got the model you want. He'll give you a deal on it for $xx. Call them."

So we drove up to check it out and we came back with the sewing machine that I've wanted and drooled over after doing extensive online research to the point that I was driving myself crazy. So for Bear's sanity and mine, I justified this purchase. The guy at the dealer didn't try to upsell anything, so we walked out only with the stuff I needed.

On our way back home, we were stopped at the light when Bear notices a help wanted sign. "Burrasita wanted"... remember this post? Maybe I'm not fluent in Spanish, but is burrasita a word, or is this perhaps a really messed up attempt to spell barista? Hell, maybe they're looking for a few good female donkeys to whip up your latte, who knows? Bear wanted to call the number and find out where this espresso stand was, because he wanted to tell them if they sure as hell can't spell barista, they sure as hell can't make a good coffee if their life depended on it. I've seen "braista wanted" signs before and I could somewhat justify that spelling, considering there are a few espresso places that are controversial because the baristas wear nothing but a bikini (some places with just pasties to cover "the girls") but a burrasita? I'm hoping someone will come through to let me know that there is such a thing as a burrasita and that they really are wanted for hire around town...
