Lost Luggage Office

Have the airlines ever lost your luggage? They did lose mine once, but found it several hours later and delivered it to my hotel. Yesterday, after coming home from San Francisco and upon arriving at Logan Airport I stood by the luggage carousel waiting for my nondescript black roller bag to show up.

As I stood there I realized that I actually wanted it to be lost.  There was nothing in my bag that I wanted to ever wear again.  I wanted the $300 or so I would get from United to replace the boring, frumpy items I had been wearing for the last 5 days.

I was so sad when my bag showed up as the last one on the carousel.

Sad enough that I've put together a couple ideas of things I would've bought with my "lost luggage" money.  I start graduate school again this week and a new outfit is in order!  I just wish I had the $300!

You can find them here, if I don't get to them first!

• Safari Jacket by Jones New York
• Eyelet Blouse by Banana Republic
• Trouser jean by JCrew
• Fossil Tabitha Flat from Zappos

I think I'm going to "shopping" in my old career closet and see what I can come up with for school.  Something a little more tailored than my sweatshirts and workout pants I seem to be sporting these days...

A Little Pink (Okay, Really Pink!)

I went and met some friends on the docks of the Boston Esplanade today.

This is not my photo (thank you Google Images), but it is where I was today!

It was gorgeous out, sunny and warm.  The wind was pretty prevalent, so much so that I didn't notice how much color I was getting!  I knew I needed some vitamin D, but I didn't need so much PINK on my Irish/Swedish skin.  Oops!  I actually got more sun today than I did with 5 days in Florida!

I just got out of a cool shower, and used some of this!

Next time, I need to remember this instead!
