No pocket protectors for this geek.
Jan. 7th, 2006 10:17 pmWhy didn't someone tell me feminine clothes could make me look like a fuckin' badass? Shame on you all!
So a few days ago, Mom bought me a pair of black boots with cool belts wrapping around them. Really hot boots. Reminded Mom of something River Tam would wear, she said. The problem was that I had no jeans that I could wear and still see 'em. Cue me being depressed.
So we went out shopping for tapered leg jeans and Mom dashed up tp me carrying a skirt. "I never wear skirts," claims the unenlightened Lucia, "Skirt are for delicate flowery women. I'm a scifi geek." "Try on the goddamn skirt," says Mom. I sigh and jog off to te trying room to get the terror over with.
I look in the mirror and have an epiphany (I get 'em a lot): Lucia + black skirt + River boots = Scifi geek + (hardcore sexiness x a really fuckin' big number).
So, moral of the story, I've gone from black jeans and colorful tops to hot boots, hot skirts, and a few awesome tops that I never would have considered my style.
According to the parents, I've gone from "Bohemian chic geek" to "Kick-ass eclectic geek".
Tis' a good thing.
