Sky Is Grey But I'm Dancing In The Rain

January 4, 2010

I keep wanting to write December for the date.  I actually just typed in December 4, 2009.. wow.  This new year may take a little more getting used to than I thought.

I LOVE this belt and I'm so surprised that it took me so long to wear it.  I found it at Goodwill about a month ago and every day I look at it and WANT to wear it but couldn't really figure out what to wear it with.  I really liked the pairing of the metal pieces with the florals.  What do you think?

We went to the Towne Center lake to take these pictures.  Patrick picked up a piece of bread and threw it to the ducks and MY GOD I have never seen ducks go in such a rampage! One practically toppled over the other.  And of course there was one duck that just kind of bobbled there and had no idea what was going on.. it was quite funny.

I kind of forget that it had rained really hard (yes, rain... GIVE US SNOW) the night before.  Sorry, shoes!

So, I am in such a shopping rut right now, which is actually probably a good thing.  The other day I got a scarf and belt at H&M (because I had a gift card) but other than that the last thing I got was the Coach bag I found before Christmas at the CHKD thrift store.  I went to THREE thrift stores yesterday looking for a little inspiration, but NOTHING.  I found a few things I think I normally would have bought, but I think that the closer I get to the Macbook, the harder it is the spend money on anything.  I'm going to the Mac store today to take a look and keep that motivation going.  

Also.. I'm pretty sure this is going to be the best birthday yet.  I'm (hopefully.. praying my bio professor will let me skip two consecutive classes) going to New York the weekend before my birthday with my little brother and stepmom (I've never been!) and Charlottesville with Patrick the next weekend to our FAVORITE venue to see Iron and Wine!  29 days!

PS- All of the weird spacing on my blog.. I'm not doing that! And I don't know what's going on!  Anyone know how to fix it?  It's been like that for as long as I can remember on my blog and I don't know why. Ugh.
