This morning is AWESOME. I got nearly nine hours of sleep last night, I'm halfway through a cup of coffee, and I am wearing fabulous new pants-on-sale! And holy mother of God, but do I love my new pants-on-sale. My new pants-on-sale are so awesome. I'm already planning all the fabulous things I plan on doing in my pants. They're cargo-ish, but dressy enough to wear to work. The cuffs not only roll up marvelously, but can be tied up with drawstring ties, so they're perfect for the beach. The material's light, but not too thin -- so they'll be great for Coachella's 90 degree days and 70 degree nights. And the British will be wowed, I must say, by how marvelous my ass looks in my fabulous new pants-on-sale. It's a thing to wonder at.
Imagine what'll happen when I wear them with my new pink $10 sweater. Imagine!
As a result of my pants-on-sale and my $10 sweater, my budget's a little tighter than usual this month. I have made a pact with myself, though -- if I bring my lunch this week and next, I can continue to go out and do fun things that do not cost more than $5. This actually isn't too bad a handicap, as the Los Feliz 3's matinee prices fit snugly into this category. As does my purchase of this week's 1602.
