Musing. Not Soren/Rollin kind

I had thought about writing something since it'd been several days, but I couldn't think of anything that would hold my attention. So I decided to do a little online window-shopping for when I have money to blow right now it's all on debt account and will be paid to me whenever my parents can afford it.

I was pretty excited. I googled "victorian gothic clothing" and a whole ton of beautiful clothes pulled up! I got all giddy and started throwing my imaginary money around like Ivana Trump on speed with a dash of Paris Hilton. Medieval blouses with lace-up fronts and long, flowing sleeves; long, lacy skirts with etched hems; gloves and capes and parasols...! I even found a dress that looked exactly like the generic one I always draw my cartoon self in I want it. I was in window shopping heaven. I started bookmarking stuff like mad, already budgeting how I could buy all this a little at a time and slowly build up my dream wardrobe which now consists of four skirts and three blouses *tear*.

Then I noticed something. All of the prices on every website were in British pounds. I felt that uncomfortable sinking feeling you get when you know you're in for a let-down. Sure enough, none of the websites I had been looking at delivered to the US, and there are apparently no good ones in the US. I looked and looked. And, just for a change of pace, I looked some more. Nothing.

Thus, for the first time, I truly wished I were a little more normal and able to buy my clothes easily. Yet, I'm stuck in an endless gravitational pull to multiple places. I have European tastes when it comes to music and clothing, a Japanese code of honor from my studies, and a Texan's pride and heritage. Those things should never mix. They create one weirdass, mixed-up person who can't seem to figure out her niche. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy being a little "out-there" I just wish it were easier.

I don't want to hear anyone say I'm not "girly." I just make my own special brand of girly.

Guess that's all about that.

In other news, we had a thundersnow today. I almost fainted from joy. Thunder AND snow at the same time?!?! Can the world contain that much awesome?!?! Apparently, it can because we're still here. My world sure was rocked, though.

Also, I found out that they're only making ten episodes of Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge. Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat?!?! So they canceled the perfectly-fine anime to make a drama that should have been a comedy and then cancel it? I don't even have hope that they'll start the anime back up. If the stupid writers had made the lead characters a bit more like their actual selves instead of dramaqueens, I think it would have gone better... I don't know. But I'm pretty pissed about it. :|

Also, I want to point out that when I say Sumimasen! at the end of every post, I mean it in the "excuse me" tense and not the "I'm sorry" tense because that wouldn't make sense. As in "excuse me, I'm off!" It can go either way.

Sumimasen!
