and the bride wore black leather

I have this jacket. (Okay, it's not Comme des Garcons, it's better. I bought it on Haight Street in when I was in high school.) My mom is still storing it for me, even though she's moved at least seven times since then.*

I could never bring myself to part with the jacket, in spite of my propensity to get rid of things. Ah well, maybe I'll wear it for the vow renewal....

*Um, mom, thanks for storing my secret stuff while I brag about being a minimalist.

  1. Ha. Storing stuff is my secret vice. I'm all "Oh no, I HATE clutter. No knick-knacks for me! And then... you go in my basement. Yikers.

  2. thats my kind of bride! i recently bought my first leather jacket, and i've been trying to weasel it into every outfit since.

    clutter is my nemesis. i am like a tornado around our apartment: "what's this? why do we have it? i'm giving it to goodwill!" that is, until i come upon my collection of ceramic animals...
