Princess Problems


Got to see my in-laws tonight.  They're good peeps.  My mother-in-law is a huge fan of vintage bags and even gave me one of her prized Enid Collins box bags as an engagement gift #@vda$%!aoi&? *cough* years ago.

She has a friend who owns a no-shit Rolex.  I got to hold it once.  It was like a gift from Santa I didn't even know I wanted.  It was heavy.  I felt good.  It would sparkle in a pitch black room.  I shall never forget it.

Want to hear something that will make you swoon?  The lady got it for freeeeeeeeee.  It was her 25th anniversary gift or something like that because she worked for Rolex.  I don't know if it was her first one or not.  But after that, I know for certain this is one luxury label that has earned it's stripes.  Straight up functional art.

I don't think I could ever own one, though.  Not unless I found a pre-owned one for a very good deal.  Someone in my position can't really justify blowing that kind of scratch on something my phone already does.  Plus watches present a challenge to left-handed people who write a lot and use a mouse for long periods of time of a daily basis.

Do you think I really should have been born a princess?  I do.  Working is fine and all but I truly believe in my heart that my calling isn't to be wealthy necessarily but to be surrounded 24/7 by my favorite things and learn life's lessons from other people's mistakes so I'd never have to make my own and also be able to hire people to do things I don't like... changing the litter box, laundry, waking up before noon.

If a princess wants to have cocktails for dinner with her besties even if it's a school night, she can.  Because princesses don't wake up before noon.  Hello.  Princesses are cute.  It's called beauty rest for a reasonnn.  Pay attention.  (That was for my benefit, not yours.)

Princesses can spend 3 hours putting on makeup and then go to the mall with their girlz and buy more makeup and go home and put makeup on each other and drink more cocktails and maybe play with their hair or glue sparkly things on their iPhone cases.

What they don't do is stuff that prevents them from wearing a Rolex.  Or any wrist jewelry.  How this has anything to do with seeing my in-laws tonight, I do not know.

It would just be nice if I could, for once, wear a bracelet all day long without issue.
This is the stellar
Lia Sophia Party Favor bracelet.
I'd like to wear mine complication-free.
