My hair, not quite long enough to wrap around for the hiding of the elastics. But I like it anyway.

I have been writing and editing until Darcy has come home from work every night this week, so we went out for supper on Monday, had so-so suppers the next couple nights, ate a healthy-ish supper last night, and then went out again tonight. By my post title, can you guess where we went? The Keg. Da Keg. Dos Keg.

Since I spend my days at home working, I rarely stray from the uni of yoga pants and a T-shirt. And slippers. And very little makeup. If Darcy’s lucky, I’ll put on a pair of jeans for when he comes home. Tonight, though, he came home to jeans AND a nice top! Surprise! The slovenly mess crawled back into her editor’s hermit hole for the night, where dowds go to die. Maybe, too, if Darcy’s lucky, I’ll even hold his hand.

I was out Christmas shopping earlier in the week, and I bought three things for myself. Merry Christmas! This top is one item, for $7.91 from H&M. The other two pieces are a red-and-navy skirt (with red belt!) from Forever 21 for $10.16, and a pair of navy tights from Walmart for $4.52. Total spent for the Tally? Cha-ching, that’s $22.59, good sir, which puts me at $679.11 for the year. Only a couple weeks left in December. Will I hit the $700 mark? I think the chances are good, because I can never resist after-Christmas sales. Then again, I like sales all year round, so what does it matter? A deal is a deal.
