What I Wore: The Other Pinkening

While I was editing this album I realized something. This outfit totally reminds me of Pinkie Pie from My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic

Ponies I love on that show, in order from most loved to least loved are: Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Rarity, Twilight Sparkle, Zecora the witchpony, Granny Smith, Princess Luna, Princess Celestia, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy.

Oh, you know, she’s only MY SECOND LEAST FAVORITE PONY WORTH MENTIONING.

My real least favorite is Derpy because she makes me uncomfortable.


And not for politically correct reasons. That would be hypocritical.

What the fuck is her cutie mark anyway? Is that lizard skin? Whichever of the writers made Derpy’s special ability psoriasis is a mean, lonely bitch.

In a couple of these shots, you can see the edge of my LG Tone Wireless Headset. They’re on sale right now for ‘cyber Monday week’ and if you’re looking for a wireless headset, these are my jam. I love them. They’re easy to pair, easy to connect, comfortable as hell, and really convenient. They solve the only problem that I had when I switched from my ipod to my phone: inaccessible controls. We’re basically inseparable.

Oh, and you should watch this. This kid is the voice of Finn the Human on Adventure Time. And this shit’s hilarious.

I know what you’re thinking. I’m a grown woman who still watches children’s cartoons. You’re right, my life is pretty awesome. I like to think of myself as an example. Something to aspire to, really.

So it has recently come to my attention that I already had a post called The Pinkening. Fairly recently, actually. So this post shall henceforth be known as The Other Pinkening.

What I Wore: I’m Not A Player, I Wear Polka-Dots

Guess who’s a little bit drunk in these pics. It’s Ben. Just kidding, it’s totally me. And before you ask, I have no idea why I’m making the angry face in some of them. Ben and I went to Octoberfest and I had 22 ounces of hard cider and ended up like this. I’m a cheap date.

Also, the cat has recently (in the last hour and a half) decided that we’re in love, and she won’t stop jumping up on my desk to purr, sit on my keyboard and push all my shit off into the floor by rubbing her head on it. I guess she’s finally over being angry at the humans for the existence of dog.

Oh, and some of you are probably like “isn’t she in a 12 step program?” Yep. Still am, this isn’t a horrible, tragic relapse or anything. There are about a million more 12 step programs than the drunk one (although you wouldn’t believe it to hear them tell it!) and the reason I never say what program I’m in is because it violates the anonymity clause. I think it’s kind of obvious from reading my blog what program I might be in, but if you ever want to know, just email me, I’ll tell you in private, I have no qualms. Sometimes I get a little amazed that, with my genetics I’m not an alcoholic. But then I buy a beer, drink half the neck and leave the rest to sweat itself to death. It’s really rare to see me even this drunk. So don’t you feel lucky?

What I Wore: The Pinkening

This outfit was really comfortable, and I felt totally cute all day. As you may be able to see from the bunching around the knees, the leggings should have been a size smaller, but whatever, they were really cozy! I feel I must confess that I didn’t actually wear the taos heels to work, I wore my ever present Merell flats, but I’m so sick of seeing them in my outfit posts that I changed my shoes for the pictures.

Belt is from some (ugly) Charter Club slacks I bought at Macy’s. Honestly, I have no idea what I was thinking when I bought those.

What I Wore: Fattest, Oldest Cheerleader at Earth Tone High

This outfit was incredibly fun to wear. I seem to be moving towards shorter skirts lately. That’s probably a good thing since it FINALLY feels like summer is coming.
