what is this? I move to Texas for the warm weather, and then get angry when it starts getting in the 60s in October. I feel like such a brat, but I have found myself gravitating towards a wardrobe that would be much more befitting of a young lady living on a farm in New England. for example, I just bought these from urban outfitters…
… which, honestly, it doesn’t rain all that often here, but I have been hunting for rain boots I actually like for about ten years. then, I go to target and am simply LUSTING after this sweater that looks like something my grandpa would have worn {had he been into cardigans. he was much more of a pullover man}. I convince myself not to buy it, only to return two days later and do exactly that…
…{she’s doing a really good job of making it look non-frumpy}. one of my other errands today was to return a top that looked absolutely heinous on me, and after a bit of shopping around, decided to exchange it for a seagull romper. let’s just take a minute here. a} it’s a romper, of which I have tried on at least a bagillion of, only to each time say to myself, “why did you do that, again?” 2} it’s covered in seagulls.
… even this lady is saying, “really?” seriously though, I am super pumped about the romper, and it is the first I’ve tried on that looked anywhere in the vicinity of normal. plus with the exchange it felt like I only paid $5.41 for it.
honestly though, I am really missing the east coast, and some of it’s current inhabitants. I could really go for carving a pumpkin and dragging out its slimy insides to salt and bake. I could even rake a leaf or two…
