Covering Your Assets

Joelle said around mid-morning on January 10, 2008

I’ve got to go by a client’s place today and introduce him to WordPress (mmm mmm!) and I’ve made an executive decision: I’m stopping afterward to buy myself a new office chair. This chair I’m sitting in is an assault on the human body, specifically my lower back.  I bought it in a pinch, thinking I would get one of those ergonomic jobs that I’ve seen at Office Depot.  I’ve been waiting for it to go on sale, but every time it does, I miss it. I’ve been riding this $40 mesh donkey from Target at least 10 hours a day for a year now and I think it’s time to put it out of it’s misery.  It wasn’t built for web designer wear n’ tear.  Come hell or high water, I’m treating myself to a new chair, sale or not! 

Speaking of assets (Men, feel free to check out here), Ms. Pants and I were chatting this morning about Spanx. I mentioned to her that Target carries Spanx, but they’re called Assets and are $10 less.  She told me I won her “Baby Daddy Award” for the day, so I have to assume she’s pleased.  So, just a lil’ PSA: if you’re a Spanx die-hard, you probably already know, but if you didn’t and are looking to save a buck on your Spanx foundation garments — Spanx = Assets by Sara Blakely.  Sold at Target!  It’s not like they carry all the novelty things that Spanx offers, like the fishnets or the reversible tights, but for your garden-variety foundation stuff in black or nude… get Assets. Same same.
