Monkey Orchids

Mistakenly referred to as “Monkey Orchids,” none of the above species are in the Orchis simia family which is the genus for the monkey orchid. The above orchids are in the Dracula genus. Although they are constantly being misclassified, they still have adorable monkey faces which is good enough for me.

Emma, Emily, and Jerry were right about which dress so wear. The woman at the store said she thought I looked older than some of the other applicants, but I’m probably the same age. Yay! Also an old man opened the door for me at the library, which is always a measure of how good you look.

Hello!

I’m applying to work at a vintage women’s clothing store and I was hoping you had an opinion on what I should wear. I want to blend in but be memorably cute.

The orange dress is good because it’s flashy but as you can tell I am super hippy in it. The middle dress is good because I get a lot of complements on it (it’s the one I was wearing when like 3 dudes opened doors for me) but I think it takes a second look for people to realize how cute it is - and I might not get a second look. And the third one is good because it actually is vintage, but does it look too dressy?

Halp!?

I worked out this morning instead of at night like I usually do and it’s really throwing me off. I am tired and antsy at the same time. I normally sit down to write at 9 but I was doing crunches and flailing my arms at the time. Now I’m trying to sit down and it’s really not working.

(Might have something to do with I just don’t want to write the next part cuz mah characters gotta die)

I am definitely a person who likes routine. I like getting up at the same time every day and immediately showering. I like making my tea with no sugar and eating breakfast forty minutes later. I like doing the dishes. I like searching job sites, maybe I find something maybe I don’t. If I don’t, I like opening my story and working on it while listening to 90s hip hop. I like slowly moving around my house and lightly cleaning, only to give up when I realize there is too much crap to clean.

I really hate it when my routine / tasks I am comfortable doing are interrupted. I know I did it to myself today but gah, it still sucks.

A rare early 18th century Memento Mori band gold known as a skeletal, as the whole length of the skeleton is employed on the outside of the hoop, with other emblems. The earliest known example is dated 1659. This ring is enamelled in black with a full skeleton, twin hearts for love and an hourglass, symbolic of the passage of time and the brevity of life.
