well,  payday is upon us and as such i spent the majority of my break shopping. i reached shoe nirvana when i entered jasmine sola in order to purchase the gold mules that i have had my eye on for weeks, only to find to my delight that there was ONE pair left and they just happened to be in MY size. total fate.




and it helps that it matches the bag i just bought off of craig's list. (for those of you who dont know, craig's list is a hotbed of knockoff designers/designer-esque bags). seriously, i saw this bag on CL, emailed the girl, and 20 minutes later she met me in front of the Guess Store on Newbury and we made the exchange. its like ebay i suppose, minus the bidding and with the bonus of instant gratification.   
 

so yeah this is my life...each payday is a whirlwind of spending activity: bags, shoes, drinks all night, extravagant dinner..... followed by slight remorse the next morning...well, remorse until i look at my lovely new shoes or new bag or whatnot.


i used to be a shopping bulimic....i would buy a really expensive pair of shoes or shirt or skirt and then feel so guilty about it that I would be forced to return it the next day; now, that guilt has left me and i am now the consumate binge-shopper; i spend until i can't anymore...and then i just wait until i can spend again (i.e. payday)


i should be more careful, knowing my tendencies. you know, like recovering pedophiles stay away from schools and playgrounds? i should really avoid shoe stores and sales; but i suppose i am not really in "recovery" , so its ok.


it's quite possible that i am watching too much law and order
