I was playing around on Kitson's Web site and low and behold they are now selling (re-selling?) Member's Only jackets. For $145. I am totally pissed because last year I found a lime green one at Land of the Lost and totally should have bought it since it was like $20. And also, when these jackets were first in style, my sister and I had matching magenta ones by the way, there was no way that were that pricey. I mean my whole family had one, and no way would my parents spend that on one jacket for their elementary and middle school aged children. I get that times have changes and the economy is different (although weren't we in a recession back in the 80s too?) but really, why are they $145?! Why can't they sell for what they used to cost. At Burlington Coat Factory. And Kohls.
So anyways, I decided in the spirit of re-doing my bedroom bedding, I also am going to make over my bathroom. I'm thinking deep, rich colors. I need to go to World Market. I love that place.
And after my sister's wedding, and once the weather cools off, I am totally going to start going on mini-adventures so I have something interesting to write about. Either by myself or with people. So if anyone has any cool places they think I should visit...let me know! I think my first one might be going to the Alley and Medusa's Circle to try on corsets and fun platform shoes. And pleather pants. And take pictures. Funny ones. Not pervy. Who's with me?! Britta...I think you should come for a visit so you can accompany me! :)
Song of the moment: "About a Girl," The Academy Is
My guess for top 2: Katee and Chelsie or Katee and Joshua.
ttfn.
One day, this might become a novel.

Hahaha! I wish I could come along with you! However, I can't believe you've never been to The Alley or Medusa's Circle! If you want to try on pretty corsets and funky platform boots, try The Ninety-Ninth Floor, which is located on Halsted, across the street from the Chicago Diner (I think the intersection is Roscoe, but I could be wrong).
I went to the Alley in high school and college and bought several pairs of Doc Martins. You know, to go with my J Crew flannel shirts :-)
I am in ... as always! Melissa
