The cashier at Goodwill gave me a funny look when I bought this $1 tee. It’s okay. I understand. I get these looks all the time. It’s the What is she doing with all this terrible stuff, and why does she keep buying more? look. I should probably just tell them about my blog, but I kind of enjoy being a woman of mystery! 😉

I like giraffes. When I go to the zoo, they’re my favorite thing to see. 🙂 I like to think they think highly of me as well. 🙂

Ouch, Mr. Giraffe. Very Ouch. 🙁
I chose this top for its fun golden giraffe, and because I was itching to get rid of these guys!

That’s right. This was a T-shirt with shoulder pads in it! Why? Why would anyone want this? The mind reels.
Now that those ridiculous pads were gone, I began pinning the sides of my new tee to make it fun & fitted!


I cut off all that extra fabric from the sides and made a couple of chops!

And that’s that! Now my new top was ready for an evening out and about! 🙂


Do you recognize my skirt? It’s my top from yesterday! I think it kind of rocks as a miniskirt. 🙂
While out, I swung by New Brookland Tavern to check out The Olivia Tremor Control.

While there, I suffered the harrowing experience of realizing I was probably the oldest person in the room (Eeep!!!). I don’t know why all those extremely young hipsters were there to see a band from the 90’s, any more than I know how I’ve become that person who is constantly thinking critically about the posture of those younger than me. :/ Thankfully, a mom of one of the opening bands showed up, thus relieving my burden of Bar Elder. 🙂
After the show, I headed over to Art Bar for a tasty Carolina Veggie Dog! 🙂


Fun times!
Cheers!
