I Am Seriously So Mad At Myself Right Now...

For not having the foresight to set a Google alert to inform me of the existence of this amazing blow dryer dress, which is now ALL FREAKING SOLD OUT at ModCloth. Why? Because God hates me:
Is it super lame that because I'm on book three of the Twilight series, I wish I had Alice Cullen's psychic abilities to help me out in CRUCIAL situations like this? Also, who else is reading Twilight/New Moon/Eclipse/Breaking Dawn? CONFESS AND DISCUSS!

Oh yeah, to console myself, I'm gonna buy this quasi keffiyeh. Sniff!
