Every once in a while, you stumble upon a fascinating day and yesterday definitely lived up to that moniker. I started the day off with an early lunch at a greasy spoon restaurant that was like stepping into a time warp! It was a real 1950s diner (like Wowsville, you guys) and served milkshakes that tasted like chocolate heaven. Then on our way to do some groceries we witnessed a huge crowd of people in animal costumes. Seriously, they were dressed like giraffes, rhinoceros, and every jungle species I can think of! I really wish I had a camera to document it all. After work I ended up going out to a country bar where headbangers were doing heavy metal karaoke. I sang Like A Rolling Stone by Bob Dylan! Then I ate some greasy garlic bread and went to bed feeling completely satisfied with life.
Oh yeah, I guess I should talk about the outfit for a bit? These tights got an awful lot of comments when I wore them. I guess they're weird but they're so perfect for a copy editing/internet nerd like me. The crop top, skirt and tights are American Apparel.

I am anxiously anticipating my next paycheck so that I can get both a haircut and these awesome tights as well as the 2 toned ones!
on your twitter you mention why headbangers like karaoke and that puzzle me too. i went to a karaoke bar with friends and there were a couple headbangers doing covers of indie bands like the strokes it was kinda awesome. its funny because I sang rick james give it to me baby and the rest of my friends sang gangsta' rap! hahaha!
by the way SOUNDS LIKE AN INCREDIBLY AMAZING DAY!
Im a math nerd (pretending to be ) do you know if they have number tights?
Those tights are so enigmatic. It is overwhelmingly befuddling and exciting all together. I had one of those days before where every moment seemed slightly "out of place" yet idiosyncratically satisfying. I hope you are enjoying your freedom. I know I am!
I thought of Wowsville as soon as you mentioned 50s diners :) Like Wowsville in that it was a 50s diner or in that it was shit? Did you see Weird Al's hair bobbing up and down behind the counter?!
The tights would go nicely with my swear rings!
Those are the best days.
Those tights look fab on you! Sounds like and fun and interesting day too!
I am jealous of your diner lunch, especially the milkshakes. diners are always the best.
Jealous of your breakfast, mine today has consisted of a cup of tea and a club bar : /
