YOU DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS WINTER???

Happy Hump Day!

While on break today, I decided to go to Urban Outfitters.  I love Urban, they have a great variety of clothes, books (ranging from topics of cupcakes to sex positions), and junk that I plan on buying someday for my future apartment.  My one question: Why on November 3rd do I find multiple areas of this store carrying shorts?  It is SO cold out!  This morning, when I went for a run, it said it was 29 degrees out.  So....unless you are a super trendy Asian, visiting America, wearing a stuffed animal as a backpack, and you only packed this bag with shorts and a pair of tights then FINE GO AHEAD AND WEAR THE SHORTS.  
If this isn't you, don't be silly, put your beautiful body into an article of clothing that will keep your whole lower half warm.

On the contrary, there were a lot of things that I loved at Urban! Two things that I really loved: 
I'm a sucker for scarves.  I love them for these reasons: 1. They keep me warm, 2. They dress up any outfit, 3. They always hide ketchup and coffee stains on my shirts.  This scarf came in a variety of colors but I liked this one the most.  This scarf is $28!

 I really love this skirt, I saw it hanging by itself and thought I could wear this to work.  I then found it on this mannequin and really liked the whole outfit and realized how versatile it is.  So I'm thinking, if you are not that super trendy Asian I referred to above, you can wear this skirt with a pair of tights and still look just as awesome!  The shorts may look good, but I will never admit that. BTW, this skirt is $58.  

Also, they are having a great sale, I saw a lot of awesome dresses, I would have taken pictures but I got yelled at for taking these pictures by an associate.  Whatever.  I talked to her and told her it was for a blog and she started telling me about her blog, so I think we're cool.  Anyways, I saw some really cool LBDs with open backs and zippers for $29!!!! GO TO URBAN!!!

A side story:  I am a huge fan of the MBTA.  I love that I can get to work for a $1.70, not have to worry about parking, or being yelled at by my father for driving on empty.  I also adore the MBTA for getting me to a Celtics game in 20 minutes on a short notice (I swear to God), the train cuties, but most of all the freaks of nature.  My mom swears that she attracts freaks to her and I think this issue is genetic.  

Yesterday, walking into Ashmont station, rocking out to my Fall 2010 playlist (it sucks), I see a man going up the escalator.  He is about 50, dirty, potentially the slum of the earth but he made my month of November.  When he got to the top of the escalator, he fell.  Not only did he fall, but the escalator ripped his pants off!  I SWEAR TO GOD!!! So, while in line to put money on my Charlie card, I hear him screaming "OW OW OW OW THIS MACHINE ATE MY PANTS."  I turn around and this man is laying on the ground with no pants or underwear on.......I SAW EVERYTHING.  No one could even help him because they were so appalled by what was in front of their eyes.  I was laughing so hard I was crying.  

I think he also had a UMass t shirt on too. Sweet, nothing like some school pride.  Dirty bush man who doesn't wear underwear, I hope you are okay.  Thank you for making my uneventful Tuesday at Ashmont Station amazing.  I sadly will never forget you. 

Like promised, here are the pictures of my rain boots and the bag I was talking about.  It is supposed to rain for the next couple of days (boo) but I get to test out my new rainboots (yay!) GO OUT AND BUY A PAIR!! YOU DON'T WANT YOUR SNEAKERS OR UGGS TO MAKE THE SQUEAKY/FART NOISE FROM YOUR WET SOCKS!!!! I know from experience.
