keffiyeh

A friend from IUP got me a keffiyeh while he was in New York one time. It was a very cool gift, and I wore it all the time (as a scarf. in winter. which is nine months out of the year in Indiana, PA). I still have it, though it has seen better days (the only older piece of clothing I have is red nylon underwear, a birthday gift from a dear friend when we were 19 (!!!)). I’d like to get another one just to prove that it’s a fucking scarf and not a cry for a second Shoa.

This is the proper name for a blood pressure taker. Who knew?
