burrrrberrrrrry

ugh i just watched the debates, which were not as bad as i thought they were going to be. But really, how unfortunate is it when you have to say "it was better than i expected!" because you expected nothing. Anyways palin is full of shit, and apparently i'm a socialist and would rather live in europe (ie the future) than in redneck america, so whatevs.

What i do want to talk about, to get our minds off of all this sssseriousssssnessss economic shit is, my burberry trench. Yes, the irony is so thick, and YES I AM THE PROUD OWNER OF A BURBERRY TRENCH!! i know, can you even believe it?? I am one of those stupid americas who is paying off debt (and will probably never get out of it) so that i could buy something stupid and materialistic. Hoorraaah for "Joe Six Pack"!! I will tell you all that there were many reasons why this purchase was necessary

a) i live in a cold place, and will live here for a few more years, so investment in a good coat is not that wasteful
b) i bought it at a pre-sale at nordstrom in chicago, so i got it HALF OFF! I KNOW, die now
c) and this was the real selling point. I found a petite size 2. A PETITE SIZE 2!! the burberry stores don't even sell petites. They are so rare that they only sell like 1 in each color at flagship stores where there is winter, so basically like chicago and new york. FOR REALS! IT WAS NECESSARY.

this jacket (petite size 2 that actually fits my 5'0 frame) is basically the unicorn of trench coats. It's mythical!!

here i am in my coat



and just to inspire hope in all of you....the cutest baby ever!!! BENNY!! for reals why is he so fucking cute??!! I mean am i on crack or does this kid just make you want to go "DAH!!"
