You ever watch those YouTube videos where they be like, “A Productive Day in my Life Vlog,” or “Come Spend a Productive Day With Me?” Well this is the opposite…kinda…I guess. I did not work on my fired story today…at all. I got distracted. I was on a bit of a high after posting yesterday’s Wednesday Roundup (I thoroughly enjoyed that one). Then I woke up the next morning, this morning, and I think I got distracted by the heat – it was hot as hell today, and well, I just can’t write in these conditions.
But all jokes aside, it is a really hard writing task and I really want to get it over with even as I’m constantly avoiding it. I keep talking about it and then when I finally post it, I hope you’re not like, “is this what I’ve been waiting for?”
As I’m writing this I really want a snack. That was random.
Know what really distracted me today, though? Fashion. I went to bed at like 3, 4 in the morning. I was up doing two things: looking at YouTube videos on people’s trips to Seattle, and doing a little online shopping for shoes for when I go. That’s right, I have a little fall trip to Seattle coming up. I got a great deal and I couldn’t pass it up. It’s funny, I can spend hours planning for this trip and not get tired, not get bored, watching video after video, and searching for more. Noting places to visit, food to eat, or just activities I want to do. But today I got caught up in the fashion.
Now that I’m out of a job and have an even more limited budget, I figured I’d just wear what I already have. So I told myself I’ll just buy a pair of sneakers, like fashionable sneakers, because I don’t have any. I was thinking of something along the line of those Veja shoes. They’re simple and can go with a lot of different things. They’re also tre expensive. When I looked at pictures in some of the reviews the said the shoe was cheaply made, and showed the lettering had rubbed off after what was said to be only a few wears, I didn’t want any parts of that shoe. It was way to expensive anyway.
Then I went to DSW’s website and just scrolled through their white sneakers, and came across a cute pair by New Balance that was on sale for like $65 and so I bought them.
I went to bed and woke up with Converse on my mind – orange Converse to be exact. So I went searching on Google for the perfect pair of orange Converse and found a pair of hi-tops. Now I’m not usually into hi-top Converse, really hi-top sneakers at all. But again, I went over to YouTube and watched videos on how to style hi-top Converse. Plus, I’ve been seeing them worn in fashionable ways on Instagram, so I think they’ve grown on me. Long story short, I bought a pair, and that’s why you don’t have your fired story, because I spent the day fantasizing about what I will wear in Seattle.
But, I’ll try again, and eventually…eventually…
