Will You Bring Food?

Yesterday was fun, even if it was spent in a partial haze from exhaustion. Sometimes, it's just impossible to get your brain to slow down, especially when you quite distinctly have to get up in two and a half hours. So I ended up sleeping in and meeting Casey at the Bolevard in the afternoon. Bolstered with coffee, we wandered around as usual and did our thing.
We spent a good long while hanging out with a friend before heading to the Underground Lounge. Casey was excited cause she's an official grown-up; I was excited cause I was allowed in at all and was promised snacks. I've since discovered that I actually really like fried pickles.
That's really the full extent of my interesting day. I came home, ate dinner, and crashed much earlier than usual.
On a barely related note, I've brought my purple dress back into circulation. That's the best sign that the weather has been lovely. Well, here, at least.
Thank you, Casey.




Four-in-the-morning manicures are a thing, right?


The lounge also doubles as a cosmic bowling alley.

Just a Bit Shady

Casey and I wandered all around town on Thursday. We each got a haircut (I desperately needed a trim), talked to someone about maybepossiblyhopefully getting a job (how many appendages can I cross at once?), and did our usual farmer's market thing. Just with more delicious tacos from our usual papusa place.
We did discover this mini mall, which was finally open when we were around, and decided to check it out. There are shops in the absolute very front, but once you pass that little area, it's absolutely deserted, and maybe more than a bit creepy. I love it, though. I love places like that are maybe a bit shady, perhaps a bit grotty, and full of mediocre-quality things that are only a dollar.

Sassy Goldfish

I spent the morning at Casey's today, playing Infinity Blade (fun, but painfully repetitive) and watching Important Things with Demetri Martin. I always forget just how much I love him, and how much I love that show. I don't understand how it was only on for two seasons.
Eventually, we roused ourselves and headed out into the world. First farmer's market in ages, aww yeah. Unfortunately, only one person recognised us, as most of the other vendors were gone. Well, not gone so much as replaced with strangers we've yet to properly break in. That was disappointing.
I got cucumber soda (my favourite), Casey got Jones, and we continued wandering. I finally heard "Thrift Shop," and oh man, I think I'm in love with that song. It's hilarious.
After wandering even more and traipsing through our favourite vintage shop (I so should have bought the yodeling hat, it was surprisingly cute and I was totally channeling Peter Pan), we met up with Erika and Beyrin.
Erika and I stopped in to visit with her hairdresser, who also happens to be a family friend. He cut my hair once before (back in March), and the pair of them carried on and on about my hair, but I think it's growing on Erika. I certainly hope so.
More wandering, and eventually, we ended up in a coffee shop where we developed a children's book that will be awesome. I'd love for it to be a thing. Maybe we're all a bit overexcited, but I don't care, it's perfect.I can't wait to see our other friends' reactions to it.
And now I'm going to spend the rest of my night reading and watching Red Dwarf. (By the way, Lister and Cat might be my new style icons. Yes.)
The life I lead is an adventurous one.
Thank you, Casey.

I think my chai latte looked like a spiral galaxy.

We Missed This

For the first time in a (very) long time, Casey and I went to the Boulevard, for the Farmer's Market.
I know—weird, right?
We walked there, got smoothies, wandered and reconnected with old friends (by that, I mean we got more free samples than we could handle. Everyone missed us), made new friends (the same way), and went to the town's new museum. It's actually really cool. It's a combination art/historical museum, which I enjoyed. I never realized that this town could actually be interesting.
After dinner at one of our favourite restaurants, we went to watch an open mic night. Always fun.
I wish I could lead a more interesting life for you guys, I really do.

Day Nine: Is This the Real Life?

No matter where we go, Casey and I will always find a farmer's market to wreak havoc at enjoy. Fortunately for us, the one in Park City was within walking distance of the condo! Also near the condo: the cabriolet. Which was free. Being the children that we are, we spend an obscene amount of time going back and forth on it, in between wandering the market and eating.
We had snow cones and lunch (mint limeade (served by cute guys who totally played along with our mild insanity) and an apple strudel) before going back on the cabriolet. Again. For very long stretches. We yelled things to the passersby down below ("This is your sign!") and sang along to "Bohemian Rhapsody" and generally had a great time.
When we got back to the condo, we lazed around, decidedly in love with civilization again.
After dinner, though, we chilled in the hot tub. Well, not chilled...
Regardless, it was wonderful just being incredibly lazy for a day, you know?

Fourteen

Erm, so I didn't get an outfit photo today. Sorry. But, I did take a lot of pictures. I basically wore a repeat outfit anyway, so it works. I wore this dress and these sandals.
Let's look at a face that isn't mine today, though, shall we?

She falls in love with food all the time.

Our hideout has awesome acoustics. Perfect for spontaneous
performances of "Bohemian Rhapsody."


Casey and I went to the farmer's market for the first time in three weeks. It was bizarre—we go so often that we like to think that we're friends with half of the vendors. Well, some of them. Like, five.
Anyway.
We wandered, had lunch at the nice little place called Juice Box (expensive, but delicious. It evens out, I think), met up with Erika and her boyfriend (actually, they found us sitting in an alcove to beat the heat), and had frozen yogurt. I love frozen yogurt, and Casey loves all things gummy. We also sang in our hideout and spent a bit of time at an open mic night. We didn't actually catch any of the open mic part, but we'll try again.
Thursdays have missed us.
We'll back to our regularly scheduled outfit posts tomorrow. Promise!
