Adventures in the juniors department
I’ve been running around since yesterday trying to get something to wear to the wedding I’m going to tomorrow. Megan’s dress arrived midweek, and as soon as I tried it on, I could see it was too big. At first, I thought I’d just wear it anyway. Then I decided to wear a Diane von Furstenberg printed dress, conventional wedding attire be damned. Finally, I decided I don’t want to stand out at this wedding, so I needed to buy a wedding-appropriate, solid colored dress in my size. The size was going to be the hardest thing.
The missing pot
Between leaving Austin and moving to New York last year, I moved back in with my parents for the summer. I began to plan the move to NYC. Then I began to plan just in case I needed to move back to Austin or stay in Corpus Christi. In the end, I took a job in New York, rented a horrible apartment that I lived in for one night, found an apartment share on the Upper West Side, and officially relocated. It might sound easy, but this happened after an entire summer of flying back and forth between Texas and New York.
Back to civilization
And now back to our regularly scheduled program…
I finally have the Internet again! I feel like that kid in Gary Paulsen’s Hatchet when he was rescued from the Alaskan wilderness after living on his own post-plane crash, surviving a forest of bears, diarrhea-inducing berries, and a water table prone to disruption.
