Blogs I Follow

I have been scouring the internet trying to find local blogs to follow that do what I do or love what I love. I was also trying to find some vintage clothing sellers in my area ( Akron Ohio). I will get to that later. But for now, how about the awesome blogger I found.
THE DAINTY SQUID http://daintysquid.blogspot.com/ I follow everyday. I love her posts. She is located in Cleveland, Ohio. Here is the check list of similarities. - Loves, buys, sells, and wears vintage clothing (check) Sells on Etsy (check) DIFFERENCES - She is much cooler than myself. ( I am a dork but boring.) She dyes her hair lots of different, bright colors. ( I would just like to be a red head again) She is obsessed with her nails with very creative designs. ( I haven't painted my nails since my high school prom.) WISHES- I would love to take tons of pictures at the sales and shops I visit. I wish I had more time to blog and search for cool things. I do think it is strange that there is someone so close to me, does similar things that I do, has a noticeable appearance, and yet, I have never met this person. So how many other people are near me, that do what I do, and have never met me? I usually see the same local people at the sales and know a little about them. I might not know their name (but have probably made up a name for them). Like Jason's friend, who sells vintage clothing in the Falls. I don't know this woman personally but have run into her for over six years at estate sales and auctions. We usually compete for the same things. But when we don't, I know something is up. Like those are her items they are selling that that is why she isn't bidding. Anyway, if you are in the Akron area of Ohio, buy and sell vintage clothing, let me know you are out there!
