Things That Make You Go Hmm...continued

1.  I'm fairly certain there is a giant conspiracy against "average" sized people.  Here me out.  For the last month I've been looking for pants.  Not special pants mind you, just regular everyday work pants.  I've looked in just about every store known to man.  Short pants are too short but regular pants are too long.  (Yes I have weird legs...)  Anyway, I've finally come to terms with the fact that I need to buy long pants and have them hemmed.  So I go to buy some regular pants and do I find any? No!  (Ok, that's exaggerating, I found 3...) But there must be hundreds of pairs of pants at every store I searched, and 90% were either Tall or Short.  Seriously?!  After an exhaustive search, I found 2 pairs at one store.  The pain in the neck part was that they were buy one get one free so I would have been happy to buy 4 pants at that price but only 2 colors actually came in regular size.  The 3rd pair was found at another store that had the same problem.  Only one color in my size...Ugh!  Can't it just be summer year round?  Capris are just so much easier to shop for!

2.  I'm taking a Photoshop class as you know.  In the chapter on actual photo touch-ups, the instructor prefaces with a story on going "overboard" with touchups.  Basically be careful to not make your subjects look too perfect.  So he starts the chapter and after an hour of touching up his photo, a perfectly pretty young girl has become a supermodel.  Hello!?  Pot---Kettle!

Am I the only one that thinks like this?!
