Sunday

Today is Sunday and it was the hottest day of the year. The pavement probably melted from the heat or one could have cooked an egg on it.

Our original program for today was to be outdoors but because of the heat we decided on an indoor "activity". The indoor activity included a very long visit at Macy's. Hey, it was air conditioned!

A very interesting thing was observed. My fiancé fell in love with a particular dress she plans to wear at our upcoming nuptials.

The dress was designed by somebody called Dana Buchman. We bought it in a department store but from day one she wanted to exchange it to another size. That was not a successful attempt.

Today when we were at Macy's we saw the exact same dress. And when I say exact I do mean exact. Stich by stich, ruffle by ruffle it was the same dress but it had a Calvin Klein label on it. And they had the size she desired so we bought that one, too.

The first one will be returned on Monday.

The interesting thing to me is that how two garments of the exact same design, material can be sold under different names. I just can't see how companies can get away with things like this.

Anyway, thanks to Mr. Klein our problem was solved and now she has the dress she wanted to have.
