This past weekend, I threw out my back. I haven’t been
stretching lately and I ended up doing a lot more walking than I had anticipated after being on bed rest for two days, causing my lower back to seize up and forcing me to finish my unicorn
costume in a horizontal position while pitifully whimpering. This could mean
one of two things:
- I need to treat my body better
- I’m actually 80 years old
I’m currently leaning towards the latter because I want to
start knitting and I think I may be having a love affair with capes.
Now at first, I was all anti-cape. Who would want to wear
that, said I? What use would I have for these faux-jacket mockeries? But then I
started seeing them everywhere.

And I think I may be crushin’. Not on the shapeless, baggy,
horrible capes mind you, but the posh capes that you might imagine yourself
wearing while strolling down Park Ave with a coffee in your hand. In leather
pants. Or dark skinny jeans. With boots. And maybe a furry cassock? WHAT IS
WRONG WITH ME??
What say you, dear damsels? Would you wear this trend or do
you want to escape the cape?
