And all this time, I thought there was no such thing as a perfect strapless bra. But today, I met him. My soul mate in strapless bra. Oh my, I feel the butterflies in my stomach. *singing*… is this love, is this love, is this love, is this love that I’m feeling?…*end of singing*. Yes, it is love!
So mom and I went to Macy’s there today to do some shopping. I just wanted bras and shoes. I don’t have a strapless bra (that I like) because I never seem to find one that’s good enough. There is always something wrong with it. Unless you have micro mini breasts like Busola, getting a strapless bra is usually serious business.
Anyways, mom went up to the cashier and asked, “where do we get sleeveless bras?”. Ah! I had 2 rush to her side ASAP to undo the damage she had done. Sleeveless bra ke? When did bras start having sleeves? That would be one fashionable mistake, don’t you think? LOL. If there were bras with sleeves, then we wouldn’t need shirts over the bras, would we? Oh gosh, my mother never stops cracking me up.
Anyways, I ended up getting two bras, but I didn’t get the shoes. I found a pair of flat shoes, which I have been thinking about (more like obsessed with), so I think I might have to go back and get it. I want sooo many shoes, it’s ridiculous. How am I supposed to afford all these shoes I want? Further more, when am I gonna wear them sef? I currently have 4 pairs of unworn shoes that are still in their boxes. I had five sef, but I gave one to my aunt cause she had been begging for it.
By the way, is there anything weird about me having a schedule for when I have to change my tooth brush? Funmi and I were talking about it today, and she said I am weird because I keep a schedule for when I change my toothbrush. Well, good 4 her! Speaking of Funmie, I wanna let the whole world know that she has my other strapless bra. She ‘borrowed’ it and I have not seen it since then.
Should I be worried that I met boyfriend online? Hehehehe.
*************Spam Don Get Level O*************
oooooohhhhh….very scary…that myspace story……so you met your boyfriend online…is he nigerians…cuz nigerians i’ve noticed tend to be “less” crazy… but really you have to be careful these days… so tell us the story of you and bf

girl, me thinks you just about knocked my socks off! sleeveless bras? bruhahahaha. a mother’s job IS to embarass her daughter whenever she sees fit, so no harm done. but seriously, sleeveless bras!
hahahaha.
am sorry, but that just tickles!
Diamond: Yea girl, the MySpace story is scary indeed. Yea, he’s Nigerian sha. I’ll post about how we met some day. I wonder how many people will wanna hear that story, lol.
ChainReader: My dear, I agree jare. Mothers will ALWAYS embarrass their daughters. You shoulda seen the cashier’s face when my mom asked for sleeveless bras. Chei!
But how can you not have a blog where we can read and respond? Well, I guess your name xplains it all sha, lol. But I coulda sworn you had a blog yesterday. Was it my imagination???
Your mom is too funny…Nice one…Dont worry about the shoe thing. You can never have too many shoes…
Sleeveless bra, that is a good one, ha ha
Shoeaholic, keep pilling them up o
That guy is really crazy o, that is just plain scary!
my sister, i don’t have a blog. it must be that hyperactive imagination of yours again. the voices in your head. telling you things. they told you that didn’t they? didn’t they? what else did they say? what have they been saying about me? WHAT?
……. maybe it was the comment i left on dilichi’s blog space yesterday that confused you. am sorry. i can be a parasite sometimes. but i did say “thank you” when i was done, and that counts for something, abi?
Okay,bout the spam thing,i suppose uv got to get ur gigglez anyhow;-) as for the sleeveless bra,i keep tryn to visualize it…and d image i keep gettn is just wrong wrong!!!i lyk d way u write…be guud hun!
Uzo: Abi oh, my dear. There really cannot be anything like too much shoes, too much clothes, or too many outfits. Thank God 4 that miracle.
Biodun: Funmi is always calling me a shoeaholic, but I never agree. But God knows I daydream about the day I am rich enuff to just go in2 the store and buy as many shoes as I want without giving a care in the world about the cost(s). That wuld be the day!
ChainReader: Yes, it must be the voices o! Hmmmph! They’ve told me a lot about you, but they said I shouldn’t tell you though. And you know me, I always keep secrets.
Aima: I know, right? I’ve been imagining the bra too, and there is nothing good about the picture.
What are you all talking about? I own a sleeveless bra and it rawks my socks off!I’m glad you finally got yourself a good one!
Too bad about the myspace guy..girl incident o…def a psychoooooo…God help us o.

How sad about the MySpace girl!! I think all those spam mails are laced with viruses. Be careful Girl!!
Sapphireaster: You own a sleeveless bra, huh? You don’t say! Indeed, God should help us o… all these damn psychos!
Bloke: Sweetie, of course, I’m talking about you. And you know I wouldn’t dare wear that sleeveless bra while you’re home. What’s the point anyways? You’d end up taking it off anyways. Hehehehe.
Bijoux: You think you know him, really? I’ll go ask him if he knows you too; who knows, maybe you do? I’ll blog about how I met him…. soon. And my dear, I dey fear for the day my aunt or mom will stumble upon my blog. Chei! E no go dey easy o, LOL

Mphahlele: Are you mocking my mother? I will tell her o! But not 2 worry sha, I will blog about how I met him – not today or tomorrow, but I will. I promise.
Temmy Tayo: It’s indeed an off shoulder bra. LOL. But when you picture a bra with sleeves… ah! The picture just isn’t very nice.
Azuka: You’re not serious @ all. You that cannot even handle a girl with curves, and now you want a D cup. Don’t worry, I’ll get you an A-minus. How bout that? 🙂 With the way you’re going, your future gf sef might be wearing an A-minus
Calabar Gal: Do you seriously want me to buy you a strapless bra from here? If you’re serious, I’ll get it and send it to u. I can’t really help wit the shoes, but as a sister in D cup, I’ll gladly get you the bra. Maybe we shuld call it ur Christmas/birthday/valentine/easter/Christmas again gift. LOL
Hmm..I see that the overwhelming proportion of the readers of Vera’s blog are of the feminine gender. How else does one explain the overwhelming fascination with the concept of ‘The Sleveless Bra’? It might be worth taking the idea to the next series of Dragon’s Den on BBC and seeing how well it stands up as a business idea.
Now Vera, how can you not appreciate the profound expression of art as depicted by the ‘Hanging Balls’ by the famous artist Van OmyGosh? That rare piece of art hanging on your wall (which you denigrated as being of dollar store quality) actually expresses the ingenuity of the male character. It is meant to make a profound statement about ‘Ball Power’ and conjure up feelings of incredulity, shock and awe in the viewer. It speaks of the need for women everywhere to take a closer look at their man and see him as something more than a possesor of ‘Adonis style’ genitalia. That piece of work has toured galleries in Germany, Afghanistan and Australia!! The art community can forgive you for your intolerance of creative genius on the condition that every morning, as you pass by the art work, you raise your fist in salute to ‘Ball Power’….also go and say thank you to your mom 🙂
I go Talk: I was hoping you had a blog, but unfortunately…
I couldn’t stop laughing from reading all you wrote. I might be wrong, but I doubt if the sleeveless bra would turn any heads. At least, no sane heads.
Ball Power? Now, that’s funny! I’ll have to tell my friends about this ‘ball power’ that you’re talking about.
lol@sleeveless bra. I don’t know why mothers never fail to embarrass us girls.
Speaking of dollar store, am heading out that way to pick up some christmas deco, I’ll make sure I stay clear of the hanging balls. I cant be bothered to get all those expensive stuff.That will have to wait until I have kids and a nice house.
I feel you on the shoe thing. I just bought a pair of shoes last week and when I was putting it away, I realized most of the shoes in my closet have only been worn once. Funny enough, I know I’ll be out to buy another pair or two very soon. I am obsessed with shoes!
Mari, girl, I don’t know why we can never get enuff shoes oh. I mean, why??? And I agree with you, I cannot be bothered about expensive christmas decorations. For one thing, they only last one Christmas cause they always mysteriously disappear. I dunno where they go 2, but they always get lost.
so tell us the brand of the great fitting sleeveless bra now 🙂
whaooooo
where have you been all my life?
really i love your style of writing to bits
mumsy and sleeveless bra.still luaghing while postinf this comment.
