This is why I don't sleep with strangers.

Want to know something super personal? Kay. I'm not big on one night stands. Sure, they happen. But I will never be the type of person who can meet someone in a bar, be instantly attracted, and go home with them that night.  It's not a moral thing, it's not an STD thing (though I like to avoid those too).

It's a space issue thing. Unless I know you very well and you have proven that I can feel comfortable around you, don't touch me. Don't get within 3 feet of me. Wait, make that 5 feet. I don't want someone I just met casually touching my arm, let alone getting all up in my girly business.

So you can imagine my thrill that right now, as I'm sitting at Starbucks, someone decided to sit at my table. Not the empty tables next to me, not the empty tables ALL OVER the coffee shop. He sat at mine. He didn't even get coffee, he just came in with a friend and sat here. The friend is at the table next to me. Neither of them are talking, they're just sitting there. At my table. Within my space bubble.

This really just happened. I thought it might be rude to take a picture and post it online, but so is sitting at my table. So we're even. 

"..but you gotta keep your head up!"

Sometimes, life sucks. People can say "it'll all work out!" all they want, but do you ever really believe it until it does?

I sure don't. I say words that start with "F" a lot until things start turning out.

*Side note: I just thought in my head, "All my Apple products failed me in one day!" I guess my problems could be worse....

So I guess it's cliche, but true: No matter what your problems are, no matter how bad your day is, somebody's is always worse.

Whatever, I still want a cookie. 

My first true love...

Lately, I've become a bit of a bag snob.  I'm not really into designers and labels (though I love looking at the pretty things...), but with bags, I don't like them to be made cheaply.  I carry a lot of s*%!, I need a sturdy bag!

After months upon months of searching, I found the PERFECT one. It's a beautiful Michael Kors (satchel? Is that the right word here?), at TJ Maxx for $199. It's usually $480, so that's a great deal!

Here's why I love it:  It's the exact color I was looking for.  Something that would go with both brown and black, and every other color.  Plus, you can add fun scarves to change it up.  It's big enough to use as a carry on, but small enough to use as a regular purse when you arrive. It's zippered, and the opening is big enough to dig under 3 magazines and a book for my keys.

Sadly, I ended up not buying it. I figured I need that $200 for something more important, like my upcoming NYC trip.  So really I'm just taunting myself by dedicating a whole blog to my love.

Anyone want to give me $200?

I'm looking at it as finding the man I'll marry - when it's right, I'll know it and won't think twice about purchasing it!  Until then, My Lovely Michael Kors Bag, I'll always remember you fondly as The One That Got Away.  Katy Perry style.

Why red jeans? Why not?

A couple months ago, I bought a pair of red jeans. They're my favorite things in the world.  I'm pretty sure that, paired with the right shoes, I could run for president and easily win. They're my go-to jeans, because they match (or perfectly mismatch) EVERYTHING!

And that's what I want this blog to be: your go-to for everything.  Whether it's fashion, music, politics (did you see how cute Michelle Obama looked the other day??), or cute pictures of my dog (sorry, it'll happen), you'll find it here!

What else should I write about? What do you like to see on blogs? Tell me!  I just put this together literally 10 minutes ago, so I'm still planning it all.  Tweet me @KaciKruz, or email kacikruz@gmail.com!

PS - I've only washed my red jeans once since I bought them. I'm so nervous the color will fade. How gross is that....?
