Oh Joann’s Fabrics. How you suck me in for hours and hours.
How is it we think we can go to these stores and be out in 10 minutes? Like as if the moment we walk in, we will glance to the left, and WHOA! that fabric right there is perfect! Yo, fabric lady, give me some yardage and I’m out! The keys would never leave my right hand, the Diet Pepsi would still magically be in my left, shoot, I might as well have left the car running like Minnesotans in the winter. No snow pile up here, only pure efficiency, thank you, lets do this.
Too bad this isn’t the case. At all. I spend the first 60 of the 150 minutes of my life that I will end up spending here, searching for this perfect fabric. Because I am so stoked for this project that I need the stuff RIGHT NOW. I am starting these curtains, TONIGHT. Not this weekend… not even tomorrow man. I am pumped for some serious curtain action.
C’mon, perfect fabric, where are you? I’m determined not to settle for anything less than amazing. I’m rifling through every single fabric possible. From tulle to denim to fleece… you know, all the usual curtain materials.
I realize everyone else in there looks like they know what they are doing. I notice my over-sized purse bag is getting really heavy. Hey! My phone’s picture messaging isn’t working… I can’t even confirm with Mike if this material is awesome, or horrendous? Because at the same time, its both? I’m wondering how I can get WalMart to include 95” curtains in their massive catalogue of shopping goods and not just 85” ones, as this whole stupid thing would have been over with 2 weeks ago. Oh crap. Still haven’t returned the high water curtains.
Will I spend the rest of my life in this Joann’s store?
…Part III up next…
