Thrifting with Andy

This morning was my final, final!
Fall semester is officially over and soon it will be Christmas/Andy's birthday!
I left the house bright and early this morning {aka 10:20 am}
and trudged off through campus in the rain.
My jeans got wet, despite my best efforts, although I did not fall in a puddle like my poor, dear friend Tiff.

Meanwhile, back at the house, this was happening:

Wednesday morning blues...

pekoe vs. cat

Later:

Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy went a-thrifting all about town today.
First, Tiff and I went to Plato's Closet {our favorite haunt after a test}.
I found a white wool poncho/sweater/hoodie...thing.
Tiffany says it looks like a frolic in the woods.
Aruba Red no approve.
I also purchased: some white lace, a kelly green vest, and the holy grail, purple suede pumps!
J'adore!

Oooh la la!

Then I picked up Andy at the house.
We had a date at Chick Fillet. Lemonade. Coke. Waffle fries.
It doesn't get better :)


Next on the itinerary, was Park Avenue Thrift. Yes, it smelled like old wood and dust;
and brown suede fringe jackets.
But
we had a fabulous time!
Fiance pointed out some lovely wedding gowns {complete with shoulder pads} for me to try on.
I politely declined. :P
We bought two enormous coffee mugs (one with a snowman!)
and a set of retro bright yellow and green peach-covered espresso cups.
what I find!


Then we trotted on over...
to the dollar store!
We commented on the fact that we should start buying our body wash from here,
considering it's cheap
and i finally found a smell i liked! {I drive Andrew crazy because I have to smell EVERYTHING.
The shampoo/body wash/deodorant isle is his nightmare!}
A Hanson Christmas song came on and I leaped around the isles in joy!
Andrew spotted some more coffee mugs he liked {this time with Santa's face}.
Luckily, he is strong enough to resist the temptation of shiny objects.
Unlike future wife.

my feather obsession continues...

We then ran over to wally world in the rain to get moi a gift for work secret Santa tonight.
joy.
"$10 gifts are always cheesy," we told ourselves, and so I settled on two
over-sized beer mugs.


Happy gifting!
