these shorts won't quit

I've detected a creeping melancholy in my posts. Please blame it on the self-reflection that a new year tends to bring on. I couldn't escape it. But what better way to give myself a cheerful kick up the bum by once again breaking out my lavender, silk, flippy, floppy, zippy, high-waisted, waist-tie shorts?! No better way I say! And paired with a Karen Walker silk military jacket which I have gleefully filched from my mother's closet. Well. Let the fun begin!

My first few days back at work have been good. I missed my workmates and am glad to be wreaking havoc again. I particularly like freaking out the new people by asking them to list their favourite boybands and their opinion on the Twilight saga.

Last night, I went to see Flying Lotus at Sandwiches in Wellington. Of course it was way past my bedtime. Why do gigs start so chronically late, especially on a week day? Don't people realise I've got paper to earn ;) And I was snapped! Click here for the party photos on Street Etiquette. I guess I was the only one in pink then.

  3. I like the shorts a lot too. My opinion on the Twilight saga - did you watch the TV show Roswell? They managed to fit basically that entire Twilight storyline into the pilot episode, complete with far more likeable characters and sans the rather odd "I am attracted to you because your blood smells so tasty" angle. Mmm, Roswell, time to revisit my DVD box set...
