I'm totally normal.


It's normal to go to a thrift store in search of vinyl albums right? Of course it is.

That's what I did on Thursday afternoon when I got off work and I made out like a bandit! 20 albums for 11 dollars! I was a happy lady walking up to the cashier. I even came away with six of Herp Alpert and the Tijuana Brass albums. Happy, happy, happy!

Well as the cashier is ringing me up his coworker could not stop staring at me. Honestly, she was gawking. Finally she said something like, "I didn't know anyone used those anymore." I cheerfully explained that it's my favorite way to listen to music and then the cashier chimed in saying his father was a big Tijuana Brass fan (I do love connecting with people). It was a really fun visit. I swear I shocked that girl out of her mind. I'll bet she went home and told people about me the same way I told about her. I can only hope that I peaked her interest. Maybe she'll try out some vinyl sometime.

Thrifting Treasures

I had super great success on Friday! Here is what I found:

The Best of The Dean Martin Variety Show

I've been wanting a red plaid shirt for a while! This one came from the men's part of the store.

This is a nice wool jacket. Isn't it perfect?

Fusia lace shirt. It fits me really well!

This is my favorite item! Isn't it the cutest suit ever? I can't wait to wear it.
