i caved

I caved.  I bought the cat print shorts.  It was the third time they’d called my name from the H&M shelf and I was powerless, ok?  (Humour me).  Seriously though, shorts with cats on!!!!  OK so they’re about the least serious item of clothing EVER so maybe seriously is a poor choice of word, but whatever.  Cat shorts.  Novelty factor hooked me.  Maybe I need to grow up.  They’re tailored cat shorts though with pleats and pockets and a well-fitting waist (also a novelty), so they’re grown up cat shorts, and that makes them a very wise, classic piece for my wardrobe.  Timeless.  Versatile.  Sophisticated.  [Please continue to humour me].  So yeah, if you hadn’t gathered, I’ve adorned my backside in cats and I’m very happy about it. 😀 😀 😀

Now for the far more boring topic - college tomorrow!  Mixed feels about this one.  Yay for seeing everybody that I’ve missed for the last 2 months (what happened to all those ‘we have to meet up over summer’s?), yay for new stationery and folders (I ain’t the only saddo out there!) and kinda yay for autumn cosy clothes but not really ’cause I’d wouldn’t mind an Indian Summer in September if it’s on offer.  Boo for shedloads of homework and dark mornings and cold and rain and running for the bus in the morning though.  You see, I would say I’ll make this The Year Of Not Running For Buses and say I’ve gotta stick to it because now it’s in writing, but that ain’t gonna happen.  Neither will The Year Of Being Organised.  It’s nearly 9pm and my bag is not packed, lunch is not made and hair is not washed, so that’s probably a good indicator of what’s to come.  Such is life!

I’ll keep this one short (pun intended lol) ’cause I can’t be a disorganised hungry mess with greasy hair on the first day back can we.  Just a quick question before I go – I need you guys to help me come up with a title for a blog series!  I realised when looking back through my blog that I write a hell of a lot of those ‘random thoughts’ posts, and you guys seem to like them too, which never fails to surprise me!  Turns out they’re not so random though – once every couple of weeks I evidently have a mindblank and subsequent case of word vomit, so why not make a series of it?  (Don’t ask why it took so long for this to occur to me – I’m slightly lacking when it comes to common sense and spotting the obvious.  Please bear this in mind at ALL times when reading my blog.  ALL times).  Anyway, ‘Random Thoughts #22’ or ‘Word Vomit #36’ doesn’t quite do it for me, so help a girl out, would you?  We’re talking a mashup of what I’ve been up to, favourite things/people/places, observations and all that kinda thing.  You know what I mean.  Tweet me any suggestions. 😛

Lots of love!
