This whole weekend was so busy, parents, parties and dress shopping with girlfriends. It always amazes me how a dress shop can charge a ridiculous amount for a little black dress that looks the same as any other LBD you find in a department store. But once you slap that name brand tag on it is suddenly "chic" and "must have" that people are willing to shell out 3 times what it's worth. I look at things in order of how long I have to work to buy things. Example; said dress costs 200 dollars. That is almost 24hrs of work, or a TV is 1600 dollars, that makes me want to keep my sad little TV and hit up a department store for a half day of work dress. But, there is one exception, that would be shoes. Those will easily be bought without thinking of the work angle, shoes make me smile and make the whole world seem brighter in a lil box.
Yesterday after dress shopping another friend of mine came by to "shop" in my closet. I have alot of clothes and need to thin out my closet so I have a mini shopping spree for my friends when it's time to get rid of the old. Select few get the pre-sale. We opened a bottle of wine and began the thinning. Afterwards we went to a favorite pizza spot, Piece, and devoured a medium chicken, garlic and mushroom pizza. During the walk home The Ex calls and wants to know if he can come over and watch a movie. Of course I am planning on sticking to my resolve of purging him from my life like I did the clothes earlier so I say no. Good girl right? Wrong, he was passing by us as we were walking and had movies and snacks and looked so sad and dejected and texted me again saying he really wants to see me that I caved. Ugh. I am a caver. Backbone is gone with this kid for some reason but everyday is a new day and I am not thinking about tomorrow. Not yet anyway.
