What I'm Reading This Week #13

Friday is finally here!  Can I get a woot woot?!  (Cheers to those who actually did it.)  The week felt long to start but then before we knew it...blam!  Friday.  We had the countertop dude out to measure and template Tuesday.  The lady who made the appointment said it would be 2-3 weeks after so I'm hoping for sooner than later so I can FINALLY reveal the bathroom to you guys!  Kind of stinks though because we were told they would take the sink/faucet with them and that was a big fat no.  We were looking forward to getting that big azz box out of the house.  Soon enough I guess.   You may have noticed a little zhuzh to the site (probably more for those on laptops) but I figured it was time and I think they retired my previous theme anyway.  So it's a little minimalistic but there wasn't a ton to choose from on the free side so I took what I could get.  Enjoy. šŸ˜„ I sat down and did a spreadsheet of my seeds, when they were...

Hump Day Poll: I Hope There Are No Pictures


What has been the most embarrassing thing youā€™ve ever worn?

I'm going to defend this by saying I grew up in the MTV era when they actually played music with outrageous outfits.  So at age 8, I dressed like a Studio 54 reject to see Berlin and Thompson Twins in concert.  I don't know why, but I thought it would be totally bitchin' to wear a silver sequined tube top with matching silver sequined beret, red ruffled mini skirt, red bobby socks and pink jelly shoes.  Let that sink in.  Thank GOD there are no photos of that atrocity.  But I wasn't alone because a hot gay couple in front of us had one of the two guys wearing a silver sequined plastic trench coat and he turned around and was like 'cool outfit' and I said 'you too.'  I'm sure he was saying it ironically at 22 but it made me feel like I'd made the right choice.  I hadn't.  I'm surprised my tween boobies didn't get exposed dancing because those of us who lived through tube tops know how well they stayed in place.  Moreover, I don't know how much thought this was a good look.  I won't tell you we took the sequined ensemble back the next day.  (Don't clutch your pearls!  This was a common practice back in the day, so much so there's a Three's Company episode about it. šŸ˜‹)

  1. It was the 80s - sequins were in. I'm sure he thought the effort you put into the outfit was fantastic even if the red socks/pink jellies were a questionable choice. lol. I was never a sequins girl - but I made my own share of awful fashion choices (pink velour sweatshirt that I wore everywhere all the time. *shudders*). So glad there was no social media back in the day.

  2. 80's here too. I put sun-in in my hair and it was bright blonde and then I wore Jams shorts with a bright blue shirt and white sport coat and went to dinner with my parents at a fancy restaurant dressed like that. Nobody even batted an eye but when I see myself in pics from that day I cringe every time.

  3. I had these crazy idea that wearing an off-the-shoulder sweatshirt with a jean mini skirt with floral long underwear underneath and turquoise Converse high top sneakers would be a good look. And I wore it often! Along with purple hair. It was a scene, man.
