I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Jilli have you seen these?

That reminds me, I meant to post [link]

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Combat grade umbrellas/parasols make me think of Amelia Peabody Emerson, from the mysteries by Elizabeth Peters. (I know, not helpful)

And the Parasol Protectorate, of course.

Combat grade umbrellas make me think of John Steed.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Curiosity made me google. [link] They're pricy.

Wandering through our local Savers thrift store and spotted not one, but two tan trench coats with heavy fuzzy liners that fit! One was a London Fog and the other was a Stafford (Stanford?) For under $20! I got the Stafford because it was a skosh roomier. Yay, men's clothes! Yay, winter coat!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

That reminds me, I meant to post [link]

My ex boyfriend just bought Kaylee's parasol for me. I will probably never use it. And now I must keep it forever.

And ... not very aesthetically pleasing. I'll stick with my "Signature Bella Pagoda" . [link]

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I feel that Gudanov would want to know that I am currently full of burrito.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I must be conflating more than one umbrella conversation. Someone should make a pretty parasol that won't break and you can use to slice watermelon, but I'm not going to hold it against the slicing umbrella that it's not pretty.

Because, fuck, BADASS.

Also, ludicrously expensive. I am of the school where I lose the cheap ones sooner, but that's a whole different level of not cheap.

Still, I need to give myself something for Christmas, so...
