for my last 'proper' day of holiday, I got my hair done and then went shopping.
Spending money gives me a buzz, an adrenaline rush and a happy sense of bliss. Today I picked up some stuff that I have meant to get for a while and some basics so that I shouldn't need to go shopping again for a while *cross fingers*.
Nice shampoo and conditioner from the hairdresser. He gave me samples of them last time and they make my hair nice and soft and fluffy.
New Pajamas. They are a vertical striped flanellette confection of pink, green, white and blue. Lovely and soft, can't wait to wear them! Sussan really do the best pjs, they are great quality and last for ages.
The Arrival by Shaun Tan. This is an incredible art book/sophisticated picture book with no words. It tells the story of a man who leaves his home land and moves to another country where he doesn't speak the language. I've loved Shaun Tan for some time, and this book is basically a masterpiece. (Bought with gift vouchers, along with two pretty pens.)
Ink for my printer. Exciting stuff there.
Two big men's tshirts from Jay Jays which I intend to make more interesting. The white one that says "Rockstar disposition" is going to be a hoodie I think.
A long sleeve v neck tshirt from Supre, just a nice layering top for $20
Farmer Boy by Laura Ingalls Wilder from Borders, and finally got myself signed up to their email list.
Azumanga Daioh vol 6, which I have needed for like, forever. I had a nice chat about it and Robot Chicken with the nice young man at Gamesman. How old am I? Old enough to refer to him as a Nice Young Man, that's how old.
Oh bliss. Shopping is awesome.
