That's the trouble, see. I can do self-control for so long, so very long - but then eventually I let myself off the leash, and...
Well. Thing is, I'm a jacket-and-bag queen. Other people do shoes; I know that, I understand it, I just don't share it. Give me a pair of black Rockport boots - size 10, since you ask - and I'm happy. Jackets and bags, though, whole different ball game.
Last week, I broke the zip on my regular backpack, the one I use almost daily. No matter: the opportunity loomed, I knew the book was coming up to ending, I knew that I could shop. So this morning, I went into town to do the thing. To buy a bag.
It will be no surprise to anyone who knows me, that I came home with a jacket. Oh, and a bag.
For those who care, the jacket is Italian leather (and green! it's a colour! it's not black!) with a satin lining, and the bag is a Kipling backpack. Black.
I'm very happy, and I hate myself.
