Do I look like I belong to the Tuesday Club?!

Apparently yes. Ross used to be my favorite store but not any more people. No way!

I don’t think I’m in denial about my age (ok maybe a little) but can’t that chamaka at the register tell the difference between a barely over 40 year old (young) woman and a … (oh god I don’t even want to know the minimum age of this damned club)?!

There I was all happy that I still was able to (barely) squeeze into that very cute size 8 dress. That’s what I get for thinking I could sneak in a Ross trip under the radar from the man. Karma people!

I should call Ross management to complain huh? Train your mocos@s better!

Consolation prize: I got the discount.

Chale with the Tuesday Club!

Note to self: never go to Ross on Tuesdays.

I am a struggling Xicana - a mother, educator, activist immersed in battles against oppressive systems. I especially focus on the educational system and how it perpetuates a racial hierarchy in our society. I started this blog because I needed to create a safe space for my ideas and for my writing. As people of color we need safe spaces and places where we feel completely free to express ourselves. Thank you for reading my reflections, outbursts, and locuras (craziness).
