In Which I Really Just Whine a Lot.







Star Print Dress- F21, Litas- Jeffrey Campbell, Neon Green Laces- Journeys, Cross Necklace- Vintage, The usual random jewelry conglomeration.

This is gonna be the shortest post in the (admittedly short) history of my blog. I somehow developed a pinched nerve/muscle spasm hodge-podge that is OHSOPAINFUL. I never knew how many differing ways one's hand/arm/shoulder/neck/back can (and will) go haywire. I also never knew that the word "pain" has many, many facets. So my life right now: not interesting. 
Although I have been attempting to deal with doctors all week! That's always pretty interesting, but my hand hurts way too much to attempt typing out stories that really all just end with how little I trust basically anyone with an MD. I'm pecking out this whole thing with my left hand and am on the verge of smashing Joey's computer to bits (pain makes me angry, go figure), so later, peoplez. 
Oh crap, I forgot something. The awesome green shoelaces? Not my idea. I saw a photo of some genius's Lita-clad feet with neon shoelaces on JakandJil and immediately decided it was copycat time. And the dress is a star print, not polka dots. Someday stars will not photograph as dots. But then maybe someday I'll regain the use of my right hand, but I'm not holding my breath. That would require doctors who give a shit.

    Blahhh I have been a bad blog friend... sry. Life kind of went crazy. But I love that dress. I rarely find stuff at F21 but I found a great lace shirt there which is one of the only things I've found there in awhile. I have a star print button up that I'm afraid to photograph for the exact reason of it just looking like another polka dot shirt.

    Sorry about your pinched nerve, I feel your pain as I've been to the dentist countless times in the past six months. It sucks how people in the medical/dental field can never really get it right. Going back to re read all your older posts that I haven't looked at...

    Oh baby, I'm so sorry about your hand/arm/shoulder/neck/back. That totally sucks donkey dick. Guess it's not much comfort to hear that your feature is out this week and it looks awesome of course, but I figured I'd tell you anyway. You'll receive a copy in the mail soon.

    Another thing: your blog inspired me so much that I decided to start my own blog in English. Admittedly I've thought about it for a while, but you sort of pushed me over the edge by being so spectacular and smart and funny. If you wanna stop by, I'm now residing at http://accordingtoannika.blogspot.com.

    GET BETTER!!! I wish Dr House was not just a tv show character. If he weren't, I'd force him to take your case. Seriously. I'd dig up some real dirt on him and then use it.

    love it when people relace shoes, it always makes them a lot less ordinary. And that star print just reminds me of the huge d&g inspired void in my closet. f21 did a very good job

    Oh boy, what I wouldn't give for a pair of Litas, and your jewellery. I find it pretty hard to find stuff on the F21 website, it feels like you trawl forever... but then occasionally there's something this cute!
