Citric Acid

My mood is extremely weather-sensitive.


If it's raining, I'll just be down all day. Even thinking about it is putting me in a foul mood.





The right dress, however, can act as a potent mood elevator. How can you let the damp gray seep into your soul when you're dressed like a tropical island?


That is why the Morton Salt Girl is one of my fashion icons. Though I don't approve of wasting salt like that. Pay more attention, Morton Salt Girl! Clearly you were sent to the store to pick up salt because your family needs it, so please try to make the five-minute walk home without pouring all of it out in the street. 


Citric Acid also provides me with an opportunity to bust out some of my favorite earrings.


They match so well! Citric Acid and the earrings, I mean. The earrings don't match each other exactly. I bough them at this cute little boutique — you probably haven't heard of it — Urban Outfitters?


Just $3. That makes it okay, right?


It was a long time ago.



Embarrassing confession: Citric Acid always makes me want to sing that song from Hair


Good morning, Sunshine
The Earth says hello
You twinkle —

And then I think, "Wait, twinkle? That doesn't make sense. The sun doesn't twinkle."


And then I realize (again) that it's actually called "Good Morning, Starshine." Which still makes no sense because stars (other than the sun) aren't visible in the morning, so...


Seriously, I have that exact interior monologue way more often than I'd like to admit. Maybe this blog post will help me to finally get over it. Or maybe even sing something new! Suggestions welcomed in the comments (but please, no Beatles).
