of course pirates wear leather
So I'm going to tell you all about something completely trivial, because that's what one does at one-thirty in the morning.
For my birthday, my dad bought me a leather jacket. A rather expensive leather jacket, at that. This was brought on by our recent post-IB Exams trip to Disneyland, which might as well be called Pirate Land nowadays. The whole park is FILLED with pirate merchandise, none of which is worth buying, though that didn't stop me from buying completely useless things.
The only thing really worth buying was a FABULOUSLY cool pirate-y leather jacket. It had SO much character, it was too bad-ass for words. It had brass studs all along the shoulders and was tailored and double-breasted and was great distressed leather... but they only had one left and it was size extra-small. I begged to know if they had any more in stock, but they didn't. The clerk assured me that I could order one online, and Dad promised to get me one for my birthday.
I've looked for pictures of it online, but I can't find a single one anywhere, which vexes me greatly.
And sure enough, Dad pulled through. He bought me a leather jacket. ...Not THE leather jacket we saw at Disneyland, but a pirate leather jacket also made by Disney. This is mind-bogglingly stupid. Why has Disney made MULTIPLE pirate leather jackets? Why? And why is one available for sale online and the other only available at the new (and rather superfluous, being the SECOND pirate store in New Orleans Square) pirate-y store at Disneyland? Why? Why, I ask you, why?
But hey. The jacket I now have is still very cool. I have a leather jacket, God dammit. A PIRATE-Y leather jacket, and that is bad-ass.
And now I get the labor-intensive, however delightful task of breaking in said leather jacket. Whee!
I thought I'd just tell you all.
