Not bad for a Monday, folks. Not bad at all. Mercury is no longer in retrograde (praise God) and things are right with the world. I am still, yes still, on Cloud 9 from Thursday last week. Seriously, I love Peggy. I know she reads this too, so Peggy, I love you.
You know who else I love? Cristi. This girl and I go way back. Like awkward middle school, thinking we were cool smashing up Smarties, dreaming about boys we'd never end up with, listening to "I Like It I Love It" on repeat way back. Well, we're the kind of friends who live within five minutes of each other now, see each other once every few years and pick up just where we left off. It's amazing.
We went thrifting on Sunday and it was so much fun. I don't get much "girl time", so I totally dug it. Even though we struck out on finding open thrift stores in our town, we did get some Rockin Robin's time in, which is always good. I also got this cute little skirt at a different thrift store. I fell in love with it immediately. Upon putting it on this morning, I realized it was Abercrombie & Fitch. Instantly, the above song was stuck in my head all day. Damn you LFO!
You know who else I love? My mom. She is the most amazing woman of all time. I mention this because she scouted out this spot for me to take my OOTD pics and I finally got an opportunity to give 'er a whirl this afternoon after work. Isn't she great? Again, though, I was unable to stop in and say hi to her at work (this is a dog park right next to her work). This makes this the third time I have done that to her. Sorry mom! I know, I'm grounded. *hangs head in shame*
These cute little platform loafers are a pair I had yet to take for a spin from the shoe haul my mom scored for me a few weeks ago. You guys, I still have not worn all the shoes. Seriously. I won't need new shoes for months. Well, I won't need any new shoes . . . but if I happen upon a pair I can't resist . . . well than that's just fate. And who am I to stand in the way of fate?
I also love Patrick. For many reasons. I seriously oft find myself boggled at what I ever did to deserve a man so understanding, compassionate, sweet, thoughtful, caring, supportive, responsible, respectful and handy. Also, he lets me wear his watches whenever I want. Now that's a good man.
