3 Monkeys

I woke up at a reasonable hour this morning and had a lot of spare time on my hands. I decided I needed to get off campus, so I walked up and down 23rd street to do some window shopping. I stopped in to one of the funkier stores called 3 Monkeys. It is probably one of my favorite shops. It has some very cool clothing and awesome accessories. The last couple of times I've gone in these old-fashioned-style metal cigarette cases with different designs etched into them have caught my eye. Today, I decided to get one. Not because I need someplace to put my cigarettes (I don't smoke), but because it is the perfect size for my drivers license and bank/credit cards. They've always just sat in the back of my check register, kind of unorganized and always at risk of falling out and getting lost. Now I have a cool place to put them!

I went to a couple of other places, but being unwilling to pay $79 for a shirt, no matter how cute it was, I didn't buy anything else. If I'm ever ridiculously rich someday, I'll know where to come to shop - although, I don't know if I could bring myself, even then to buy a shirt for that much.

It has been a pretty good day. And I've Carina coming over tonight to watch Grey's Anatomy and Private Practice. And I'm going to make brownies because brownies go really well with those shows.
