Can't Shop, Won't Shop

I went shopping yesterday, and nothing fit. It was awful, but not my fault. It's the damned shops that change their sizing all the time. So whereas before, Jeans West shirts only fit me in a size 10, now even their size 12 is too small and won't button up over my boobs (which haven't grown). Fuckers.

And then I went shopping today and tried on about 12 pairs of Sass & Bide jeans, then finally found a pair that I liked and needed a slightly different size. Did they have it? No. So I tried on a few items of designer couture which were highly discounted for the sales - but they were all ugly.

I don't understand why it is that the first weekend I've had money to burn, in a very long time, I am apparently physically incapable of purchasing anything.

I even tried to go and spend money in my favourite place in the world - Borders bookstore. Could I find anything? NO. Now that was the sign - if I can't find a BOOK that I want to buy then there's seriously something wrong with me. So I went home.

And now I'm cooking a chicken - cos that tastes and looks good no matter what.

Two Things:

One: You are correct, for you (and indeed I) to leave a bookshop with nothing means it is time to put down the wallet and go home.

Two: Why no blog on the date lady.. How was English boy?
