A-CHOO

me: A-A-A-CHOO!

mom: do you need a kleenex?

me: no, i have a handkerchief.

mom: you use a handkerchief?

me: yeah, i don’t like to waste kleenexes.

mom: well, it’s not like they go into a landfill.

dad: what? yes, they do.

me: yeah, what are you talking about?

mom: well…

me: but sometimes i don’t use handkerchiefs anyway. i just use my sleeve.

mom: jen, that’s gross.

me: true, but i only use the sleeve of my gross sweatshirt that i wear to bed. it’s not like i use the sleeve of a nice blouse. sometimes i just can’t get to a handkerchief fast enough.

halloween 2008

this is probably the first halloween in my adult life where i actually enjoyed my costume. i typically hate the holiday, the fuss over what to be, the egging, the kids in the streets, etc. but this year, dear friends andrew and cinnamon had their annual halloween shindig with a theme i could sincerely enjoy: rock stars. i’ve always had a thing for gwen stefani, perhaps one could say i even have a girl crush on her, so i found it fitting to dress up like her.

me as gwen

me as gwen

blond hair? check. bright red lipstick? check. gwen tank? check. bindi? check. i didn’t have the tartan pants, clunky/doc marten-esque shoes, nor the nerve to bare my stomach, but i think my outfit was a success.
