Abstract Absurdity

Today is National Absurdity Day (there’s a day for everything), so the theme for November’s Thrifty Six collaboration is absurd outfits. My initial thought went to a huge, teal, tulle Betsy Johnson dress that I thrifted for $1 and have never worn (because it’s so out there), but then I remembered it’s still at my parents’ house in Boise. So I had to go with Plan B instead. Since I don’t have any one thrifted item that’s particularly absurd, my goal was to put together a few of my funkier thrifted pieces for an overall absurd outfit.

I spent Friday through Sunday at my first anime convention with my boyfriend and his friends, and while I’m glad I gave it a try, I can safely say it’s not for me… I have seen a few anime shows and movies but not a ton, and it was generally just a very chaotic and unorganized weekend—not really my vibe. I do love costumes though, so making my cosplay was a blast, as was seeing everyone else’s. I guess this week was just full of trying new things because I also went curling for the first time! Yes, curling. Such a weird thing to do, right? Continue reading “Weekly Recap #35, 2023”
