Or “My Awesome New Shirt: A Photo Entry”
This morning, after playing Plants vs. Zombies for nearly three and a half days straight (excluding work and sleep), I decided it was best to take a break. Around midday I found myself at Cheap Thrills, a thrift store downtown. I was having an average shopping experience, finding many things I liked but nothing I liked quite enough to actually buy. Then I saw it and instantly fell in love:
My beautiful new shirt!

As you can see, my wonderful new love has “fancy” black piping on the chest!

Thumbs up for an excellent shirt, Tessa!

But, what’s a girl supposed to do with a cowgirl shirt?

Wear a cowgirl hat, of course!

“My name’s Texas Tessa, and I’m a fully certified cowgirl…”

“…as you can obviously tell by the piping on my shirt.”
*ka-CHING!*

“But alas, the cowgirl life is hard!”

So I quit for the night.

Thankfully, with a quick wardrobe change our heroine disguises herself as a Brit and escapes into a crowd of passersby.

Also, with the help of my new tattoo I can also join my BFF Sarah as a gangster, as seen below.
