Well, that is what my weekend self wanted anyway.

Heh. I opened my LJ client up with no specific intention of what to write, and found this sentence already there:

I would like a life with a bit more elegance and a bit less rushing around.

Word up, my past self, it was a hectic weekend, with undone weekend chores sloshing over into tonight. (I like that only slightly less than the week sloshing over into the weekend.) Nonetheless, I got a lot of things done and had some adventures as well, so can I complain? Nope. I chose it, I'll own it, so here are some good things.

1) This made me laugh today.



2) I think I have found an excellent source of cute, probably comfortable clothing. I ordered, a smallish order, to make sure I get catalogs for a while.

3) Someone called me a hipster. Ha ha, it is great to be called a hipster. Do you think there's any truth in it, readers? I made peace with being a yuppie several years ago and feel that I'm ready for the next step, but also wonder if I might be a little... well, old... to be a true hipster. All I will say is that I do feel more confident lately with having my own sense of style, and it's nice to feel that way.

I do not consider you a hipster.

Also, Sahalie is summarily fired for not carrying men's pants in smaller than 32" waist. Although I want that sweater you linked to.

Hipster is one of those things that I don't think that one can call oneself. I will say that you have a really cool life.

One of my #1 aspirations in life has always been to make choices about how I live instead of just accepting the life that was foisted on me, and that's one of the things that I admire about other people, too.

If I knew what a hipster was, I would let you know! But you do have a distinct style, in any case.

I like that clothing site if only because they have sweaters called "Wooby." Everybody needs something soft named Wooby.

I agree completely, and that's what I ordered... the tunic-length Wooby. :) I felt I could wait on everything else, but wanted to order something to make sure I stayed on their mailing list and hopefully got sent some coupons!

sandwiches! haha i like that one.

today i am deeply agreeing with your found sentence.

also, i don't think you're a hipster.

A) I love this post for some reason.

B) I would not call you a hipster at all...at least not how the word is currently used. I would say hipster now carries a connotation of aggressively avoiding "labels" and therefore creating one for themselves. Sort of like goth.

C) I adore sahalie, and own a woobie. It's yummy.
