The natural law of boasting is that if you boast about a thing, something immediately goes wrong with the thing you boasted about.
Case in point - The other day I was boasting about a dress I have had for ten years that people still comment on when I wear it. Only then, of course, I tore a small hole at the back. Not so bad, thinks I, I will sew it up (I'm not much of a sewer but I'll do anything to save a good dress) But I didn't get the needle out quick enough, and now the dress has several ladders in every direction - no amount of professional sewing can save that, let alone my dodgy needlework.Labels: my weird theories |
And now it has a fabric pull right on one breast. Hee hee. I think the dress wants to retire.
