"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

I have a red Coach purse. It's vintage so it's not that fancy. But it does the job.

I spent $200 at the grocery store, which is a new first. I keep trying to stock up on juice/milks as bases for Grace's food. Damn, my kid eats a lot. I mean, not really, but still... she goes through 36 ounces of blended food which is super dense and then at least 3 meals by mouth. You'd think she'd be bigger.

Which leads me to wonder if we need to have a convo about human growth hormone shots for her. The thought of it is goddman miserable.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

I settled in with some ice cream to watch the Glee episode where Finn dies.

Fortunately I finished the ice cream mostly before the crying started.

Huh. Of all my too many purses I have lying around I don't think any of them are red.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Theo, it's my parents' church in Harvard Sq. I'm not 100% sure what the deal is -- I don't think it's a craft fair?

I like that Jesse's life involves the phrase "another red purse."

I think my grandmother had one I was obsessed with -- or maybe she gave my mother one? Anyway, a couple of years ago, I bought a red purse that is great with my coat, but clashes with way too many of my clothes. And also I've come to love a cross-body. So this one is a different red, with a long strap. Oh! I guess it's this one, except a different red and not on clearance. Now I wonder if that is the same one, and I should order that one and return this if they are the same? HMMMMM. (Edit: closer examination shows a slightly different number from the tag, so I think I'm good.)

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

The description on the Target site makes it sound ridiculously small, like it would hold a cellphone and maybe a small wallet.

Oh, those numbers are definitely wrong. Look at the picture on the mannequin -- it's that size.

I missed the mannequin picture! Those dimensions are definitely off. Unless... it's a really tiny mannequin.

Cute bag! Yours is more of a red red, I assume?

It's more cherry.

Nice.

Oh, I have a black bag with cherries on it, that probably fills my "red purse" niche.

That's a relief.
