People don't understand the concept of a happy medium


At Target this evening a pregnant girl was in the line next to ours. Instead of investing in maternity clothes, she wore the clothes she clearly owned before she was pregnant, leaving the pants unfastened (revealing her red panties) and wearing a shirt that barely covered anything.

Once upon a time, maternity clothes were ghastly oversized pastel tents with lace and frills and bows and flowers. Today they make trendy, adorable, fitted clothing options for pregnant women (and even some of us unfortunate enough not to be able to find our size in regular stores and don't want to adorn ourselves in hideous plus-size monstrosities).

This is unnecessary. I wanted to apologize to her fetus.
