if only in my dreams

song of the day: 'i'll be home for christmas'
as it turns out, i won't be home for christmas this year, i'll be in sunny florida but that is neither here nor there. so i'm wearing like the quintessential christmas outfit today because i would melt into a little puddle if i wore this in florida. i just love the red, green, and black of the plaid (yes plaid again, can't help it) with the velvet skirt and the knee socks. ah....it's the little girl in me coming out again.
and i obvs took pictures at the wrong time today. i usually take them right after i drop off the kiddo at school so there isn't much traffic and not a ton of people out walking around and such. well, i was a bit late in getting myself together this morning so it was about 10 am. as i'm setting up the tripod and what not, some fool boys came near by and sat at a park bench. the nerve! i mean, it's not like it's a city park or anything and totally open to any and every one who wishes to enjoy the splenders of siloam springs! whatevs. but that's why i look kinda stiff and a touch uncomfortable. if you were wondering or if you even noticed. really i just wanted to clear the air. oh, and to tell you that i am now wearing tights under my socks. it was a bit breezier than expected.
