consumerism: it ain't so bad

some time ago, in a place not far from here, a good number of my clothes went missing as i was washing at the laundromat.

and so today, i had a most wonderful time...shopping! (okay, so i may be an anti-consumerist and all that jazz, but a girl gotta have some warm pants, and shirts, and scarves if she's gonna live in these northern climes)

shopped till i dropped with my willing companion, roger. une excursion a Value Village (haven for acquisitive anti-consumerists, and cash-strapped cavorters). and when we lined up, purchases clutched in our guilty hands, our gluttony was rewarded with 50% off. hooray!! i felt the thrill of the sale-hunter a hundred times over.

ah, sweet sweet shopping satisfaction.

(alright, i confess, the scarves were decorative; i figure i'll use them in wrapping gifts this x-mas, or something)
