Boston (Well, Sort of)

My dad and I went into Cambridge today to so some shopping and have lunch. My big quest was to get a new Tatsumi suit at Keezer's, but that ended up not happening. We did, however, find an vintage bomber jacket that fit me perfectly, but was unfortunately way too beat up for the price they were asking. Remembering that I sort of needed one for Leon, we set off on a bit of a quest through the various thrift stores. No success on the jacket, but the Garment District had a bunch of the navy blue tactical pants I needed, for $20 less than the cheapest online place, so I bought the smallest pair they had, which is maybe a touch too big (as in I'm right on the border between small and medium, and these are mediums).

My inner perfectionist is screaming that it'll look terrible and everybody will be able to notice, etc, but the more rational part of me points out that twenty bucks is twenty bucks, it's not that obvious, and if I really feel like I should, I can take them in along the inside of the leg an inch or two. Cosplayers: taking perfectionism to a whole new level.

Thanks - good to know there's _some_ benefit to the slow, steady loss of my sanity XD;

Well, at the moment, I'm saved from it by RR having non-friends commenting turned off, and I don't have any of my non-RR character journals in the comm, for obvious reasons. I keep logging in as Tseng instead of Asher, though.
