nice to meet you anyway

Get the picture?

  Interestingly, if one googles this blog title, this image came up as the third hit. THIRD. Random, much. The first two, weren’t anything I’d post here so I used this one, though one of them did make me feel a lil sick so I suppose that could’ve worked. Was a big breakfast, I hate eggs.

The purpose of this post is partly to continue in the indulgence of my mood, but also to say that due to my current perpetual sickness I’m not sure if I’ll keep posting much. I will try but as I’m back at uni time is once again precious and this blog, self indulgent as it currently is, isn’t a priority. It might be more of a priority if anyone actually read it. If you get my drift.

The reason for my terrible mood is partly a bad mood that I let myself dwell on but can’t be bothered to get myself out of. Totally wiped when all i did today was go to a shop near me having a sale, and work [see: perpetual sickness]. Work was a drainer but the shopping made me happy. Very happy. New things have that effect on me, I need help.

I bought another pair of black heels, I’ve wanted them for ages but were to expensive. And a tshirt and a skirt. I might manage to post them cause I’m excited to wear them. But don’t count on it, cause, like, I KNOW you TOTALLY were.

“I’m like, the definition of LIC GAS”
quote from a book I read recently, young adult fiction called My Side of The Story. Main characters name, Jarold. Shit. Name.

I just signed up for twitter(ssp8) for a uni subject. How potentially cool. Though I’m sure inevitably annoying. The self indulgence of this blog will become even more abundently clear and I’ll end up feeling shit about myself and I won’t even be able to vent about it on here. Serves me right for choosing a subject called Internet Meets Society right?

Think of the new clothing stez. Nice to meet you anyway, I’m not always this…shit.

I was away at the snow, hence no posting. I am back. In case that hadn’t come across already.

I’m currently slaving away at work, ha, browsing chictopia.com and what not. Demanding customers today, occasionally rude, always annoying.

Very tired due to skiing all the time at the snow and me needing a phenomenal amount of sleep to function. Driving to work today it felt like the morning after a big night when you’re not really hung over but theres just that lingering feeling, you know? Only certain kinds of music are allowed and bright sunlight makes you feel more tired instead of warm and fuzzy.

Also, too cold because I wore a tee with a coat and scarf but of course at work not wearing the coat or scarf and I’m now cold. Scouted for an emergency cardi at lunch which could’ve been handy cause I need a new black one anyway, but I only found one that wasn’t too expensive and that was too small. Disappointing in the extreme. This blog is in serious danger of making no sense. I’m going out tonight, will see if I can get a photo for you, last time I went out I think I only posted it to chictopia, I don’t have to resize it to put it up there, username s_s if your interested. My phone is playing up and I’m about to close so I shall end this completely pointless post here, so nice to meet you anyway, have a good night!

on ebay that is, deciding how much I’m willing to pay for this jacket I’m bidding on. I think I might have reached my limit.

JOKE TIME*:

There’s a man walking around pulling a piece of string behind him. A passer-by watches him for awhile, then decides to go up to him.
“Excuse me, why are you pulling that piece of string along?”
“Well, have you ever tried to push a piece of string?”

This says a lot about my sense of humour.

* this has never happened before on this blog, and will probably never happen again. Though anythings possible. I do know this joke about elephant powder… Maybe another time.

Crazy busy, in a good way, cameras been playing up so outfit posts are somewhat mia but my brain is mia atm so thats probs for the best.

FASHION/LIFE ARITHMETIC:

sick+always tired+going out anyway = extremely tired & still sick

songs for sunday: cause you know, rumour has it its sunday. Though not for much longer. You know, theres something about being tired that makes me disinclined to use capital letters. Interesting, and completely irrational. Flight of the Conchords is over and I’m not watching the moto gp. I sort of wish I wasn’t.

Toto, I don’t think we’re in Kansas anymore…
I got distracted. my bad.

london still - the waifs

the soloist in the living room - cold war kids

anything by the kooks. I’m commiserating the fact that their first ever melbourne show sold out in 5 minutes.

mercy - duffy

the longest road - morgan page

title cred: Arctic Monkeys - ‘Dancing Shoes’
You don’t really need to hear the thought process behind that decision but I’m quite impressed. I managed to combine shoes and laziness in one blog title.
The laziness refers to the serious lack of posting recently. My bad. Slightly more going on at chictopia. s_s, thats me!
The shoes refers to the fact that I’m currently wearing the heels I bought today in an effort to decide if I should wear them dancing tomorrow night. My heads thinking me no, my hearts saying yes. Who shall winnnnn?

I’m wearing them with socks cause its more comfortable, definitely need tights for the first wearage. This creates a very interesting picture because, as usual, I’m wearing odd socks [I seem incapable of anything but in general] and I needed thin ones so the shoes weren’t too tight. Behold:

The sock on the left was a promotion from work*, there was a book that was called chicken socks and during the lead up my mum[manager] managed to get a pair of socks. They didn’t match, knee high… generally awesome.
The one on the right is from these socks we actually sold** which came in sets of 3 mismatching socks. Idea being you can never find a pair so why bother trying. Genius. Another side of the socks with heels trend isn’t it?
Shoes are from Zu btw, on sale for $50! Not sure what the full price was but I’m not complaining! 1 of 5 items from my shopping spree today, first one in AWHILE, was great fun. Love bridge rd, there was a shop selling nothing over $20. These shoes were the most expensive thing I bought! Wheeee. Ok steph, stop wittering now. *breath* delirious through fatigue, I do apologise. Nice to meet you anyway!

* its a bookshop
** that sells lots of toys and nick nacks too. lol.

So I’m back and have been for a little while but I’ve been working a fair bit so my bad for no posts. It is now sunday and I am idle and I though AH HA. Here goes:
