Ok, today was a quiet indulgence day. I need that sometimes. And with "sometimes" I mean "every day". Mind, this is going to be an equally content/IQ free entry. Not like that's news, but just pointing it out with extra topping.

I accidentally woke up at half past eight, which is completely middle-of-the-night and not acceptable from any point-of-bohemian-view. So with all mighty force I put myself back to sleep, and got up a decent couple of hours later. Seriously, there's only so much daylight that I can stand, and that's anything less than five hours.
I decided to do some shopping for necessities (needless to say, I did not acquire anything that was on my list). I noticed I have way too many crazy colors in my wardrobe I've got to get rid of; yeah I don't know how they got there in the first place. It's not that I mind color, but, well... I do. It's all OUT THERE, and hiding is much more different (wearing black, you can just stand in shady corners, but when wearing colors, you actually have to stand behind columns and large objects and stuff. And yes, I DO HIDE BEHIND LARGE OBJECTS WHEN IN PUBLIC. Ask Carmen, she lost me a couple of times.) Also, it requires way too much effort to match clothes. Hence, I go existentialist.
Having previously tried it on on four different occasions, I gave in and got myself this dress. It's a black knit thing, and kind of tight, but with very nice long sleeves. Also, a black pleated skirt, because you can never have enough of those. And black/white burlington knee-highs, because I just love showing off my pasty, scarred kneecaps. Furthermore, I still love the Betsey Johnson Fall 2007 show, and I'm determined to make just that my dress code for this year (just like, black/white only. maybe some purple. I like purple). They're not even particularly great outfits, I mean there's much better this season (idea-wise, pretty-wise), BUT, just the idea/theme of it. It's something I can work, and it looks fun, and just great to wear. Mind, there's a big different between those things. Only because I worship Gareth Pugh and Alexander McQueen, doesn't mean I'd try to dress whatever particular fashion they create and promote that season. And particularly Gareth Pugh, uhm... not reeeally.

Talking of fashion, and seeing as fashion week just started... I'm not really impressed so far. That's partly because NY week doesn't have as many designers I care for, anyway (here's looking forwards to Paris!), but sometimes I just wonder how those people make their money? I mean, if those outfits were at least hideous, so I'd have something to be outraged about. But 90% are just blatantly, in-your-face, boring. So far I liked Marchesa (very romantic and cute), and L.A.M.B., although latter is a ginormous rip-off of 2007's collections. It's crazy, even I noticed it at first glance! And I'm nowhere near runway-savvy. Still, it's all almost ridiculously wearable, and fairly cute. Sort of like H&M only fifty times more expensive. Which makes it retarded.


After that I went over to my mom's place and we made Pumpkin Pie. It came out really delicious, but I'm biased because I'm obsessed with pumpkins. It's my favorite vegetable (the interwebz says it's a fruit! whatever!! tastes like vegetable to me. lol.)!! Which is lucky, because I seem to be the only person within three hundred miles radius to like it at all. But seriously, pumpkin soup, pie, stew, juice, whatever <3. Even the color is awesome!! I love fall.
Then I had some redwine, did some sketching, and went home to do more sketching. I might watch "Nil by Mouth" which I recently acquired on DVD, but I'm still kind of scared. My brain has gone squishy from light entertainment, I fear it may explode if confronted with overly ambitious information/emotion/etc.

FINALLY, I got carded AGAIN today, buying cigarettes. HAHA.
