Yes, thing-buying is sometimes fun but very irritating, as per usual when sometimes you want serendipity and sometimes you want The Right Thing.
Then I dreamed I was being sued for wrongful death of a baby. Apparently on April 27, 2013, I had gone swimming at night in a huge, utterly frigid river in Montana. This was part of a picnic or something, and others were swimming too, and in fact I had been given this baby to swim with and keep hold of. But the current had swept it away and, between the cold and the wet, it had not seen again. Now I was in court with the grieving father suing me, and![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
apfelsingail was there and was on my side, and it was all weird. Evidence against me included Google records of me having searched for the baby's name. The most realistic bit, maybe, was how I couldn't remember the incident too well, so I went looking at my own LJ archives; there on 4/27/13 was a writeup of the whole thing, complete with you guys all commenting "Oh no!" and "I hope the baby turns up and is okay" and me responding "The doctor thinks hypothermia would have set in really fast, unfortunately."
WTF, brain? o_O
Wandering around Harvard Square today, I found some punky leggings with deliciously unnecessary zippers and grommets. They fit! I bought them. Then I started looking around for something tunic-length to maybe wear them with, because they're gray and my only non-sweater tunic top is also gray. I didn't want anything crazy, just something like this. Easy? No, a quick turn around Urban Outfitters showed me that everything is crop tops this year. ARGH, I cannot keep up with fashion. Also, I like crop tops, and I'm sad that I didn't know they were back in stores a lot earlier in the summer. (Pout.)
Couldn't buy sneakers either -- they're all too insanely bright this year. My holey ones will have to continue to do.
