No one wants to read it but I'm writing it so there you go

I had an unpleasant puking experience this weekend.

First, all puking experiences are unpleasant, I realize that.

And any puking experience that in any way involves me is obviously infinitely more unpleasant than any other puking experience. That's not up for debate.

So anyways, this weekend I threw up, which was gross and I hate throwing up, but I felt better afterward, and then about 6 hours later I threw up again, with the same results of blech.

ANYHOW.

In case you are wondering why I'm talking about my puke on the internet (I mean, this isn't even about my CHILD'S puke, what kind of blogger am I??), there is an underlying complaint! About which I would like to complain!

Both instances involved puking up a combination of water and unsweetened dried mangoes.  These mangoes are my go-to crazy lady purse snack to keep me from starving and whatnot, and I love them, they are my go-to.

But now...puke.

In fact, all dried fruit is sort of reminding me of pukeyness. 

I need a new default purse snack.

That doesn't remind me of vomit.

That won't get all squished and ruined.

Or make me feel fat.

WHAT SHOULD I DOOOOOOO?

This is about my closet

Hey we haven't talked about my closet for awhile, have we?
Well here's what I wore today:

Nothing new or special, but I did include bonus chicken earrings, cuz hey.
Why not?

These have been sitting on my mom's windowsill for months. I have no idea whose they are or where they came from.  I am strangely drawn to them.

On Tuesday I got dressed like this:

The other days this week I either went to school in my yoga pants or didn't go at all.
/shrug.
That cropped trench coat was on sale for less than $20 at Old Navy. It is obnoxiously yellow, but that's never stopped me before.

I got one of those WEAR ME 27 DIFFERENT WAYS convertible dresses.

You can wear it exactly one way with a bra on.
False advertising.
But it's cute and comfortable and I think it might make me look slimmer which is always a selling point.  It's a skirt with two long strips of fabric sewn to the front. If you have experience with baby carriers, you totally have this.  If not, there might be a learning curve.

I bought this ridiculously short dress from the Target juniors section a few weeks ago.

Then I wore it out, loved it, and have been on a quest to find more of the same.  I bought this exact one in a sort of 80s-esque floral, and I also go this one:

It's terrifying to think these are the clothes for our teenaged girls.
The zipper!

These aren't a particularly recent acquisition but I don't think I've showed them off yet:

I got them at Marshall's and they are some of my most versatile work shoes.

I bought some new tube tops from Old Navy because that's a thing I do:

And finally (drum roll please)! I bought, and have worn, in public, a bikini. Like the kind that shows your stomach.
There was a point in my life when I vowed that I'd never wear a bikini again.
I look exactly the same now as I did when I made that vow (actually, I'm probably chubbier now), so I'm not sure what changed.
But meh.
Whatever.
Bikini!
It's from the GAP.
