Dark Swan

I've been missing in action for far too long!
I went on a mini vacation this weekend, to visit some friends I've been missing.
I had a blast but came home sick. 
I swear I have the immune system of a frail 99 year old.
I get sick often and you'd think that would make me somehow better at it. 
Perhaps I can function normally although ill.
If that's what you'd assume I can assure you that you'd be wrong.
I feel quite sorry for myself when I'm ill.
I barely dragged myself out of bed today to give afternoon meds to my clients.
I've been chugging Robitussin, and making playlists of good wallowing music. 
So far I have alot of Nick Cave's murder ballads, and some CocoRosie, just to mix it up a little.
As you may have already quessed I'm currently in my p.j.'s. So I though I'd share an outfit from last week that I hadn't shared with you yet. I like to call it my dark swan look (although I've never seen the movie).


Pants: Anthropologie Cadre Noir Leggings (they are thick like skinny jeans)

 Twirling like the little ballerina I am.
Top and Sweater: Express


Shoes: Simple Vera ( I adore these shoes)
 

 Random super old (we are talking high school guys) bracelet.


So now it's back to the grind. I have to do some work on a research project I'm on, and on Thursday we get to test on people! (well pilot test, but it's almost there) I can't wait (so I better be better by then).

  8. Hmmm, I would have to guess that our latest snowstorm isn't helping matters, either? My allergies have been crazy lately, ick! Those leggings are great, I like the thick ones for our cold MN winters :)
