I haven’t made many purchases (10 total, I think?), but only one was for me. A Ramones CD.

I’ve been over the moon about a purse that I bought and greatly overpaid for a twenty year old vintage no-name ‘designer’ leather bag that has some wearing on it.
But dammit, I wuv it.
It is ( and doper chicks will understand this) the end of The Holiest Grail For Wimmen ::::::Cue Gong:::::: The Ultimate Purse. TM/LLC/All Rights Reserved.
I am so farking stoked about this purse that I bought good leather cleaner/conditioner for it, rubbed it lovingly, gently laid it in the sunshine to dry, put my belongings inside it and when I drive somewhere, it sits in my passenger seat perfectly. I glance over it at it and give a contented loving sigh.
It, for me, is a portable orgasm.
Mr. Ujest was not amused, but since I only buy from ebay about every other month and this is the most expensive thing I’ve bid on and won and I promised that I won’t buy another purse again until the next bestest purse comes along for a realllllly long time.
Pardon me, I have to go off and stroke my purse.
The first sentance made perfect sense in the world I live in. Me sprechen sie fragmented thoughts.
A 1957 hardback copy of Ayn Rand’s Atlas Shrugged.
A (possibly pirated?) DVD of The Twelve Tasks of Asterix, for my sister.
50 hematite rings and 50 abalone rings, as a gift for a friend who’s going to be in need of a box of trinkets to give as gifts to others.
We must be next door neighbors in the world you live in, it made perfect sense.
Let’s see…the last two things I bought on Ebay were an extra sync cable for my PDA and a second battery for my Olympus C-5060 Digi cam. Both very inexpensively priced. I also bought the new camera on Ebay, not so inexpensive but still a good price! However, I am off now to look for a purse and it is all the Shirley Ujest’s fault. 
Actually, it doesn’t take much to send me searching ebay for something wonderful.
Den Mum Yeah, you can blame me, but secretly, you heard the sirens call that is Ebay and you know you cannot resist. It’s like it’s wafting chocolate through the computer screen at us.
And I am going to be a good girl and not buy anything until at least september.
But, I plan to sell a bunch of stuff once school is back in.
