riddle me this

[verbicide]

I live in jeans, track pants, and tee-shirts.
I only own decent shoes because my friend was annoyed and bought me some.
I get my haircut once a year when it becomes totally unmanageable.
I'm not particularly girly (all squealing, shrieking, and chirping aside)

Why do I need this bag? NO, I know it's ugly. But I need it.



*frown*

Still plugging away on The Project That Refused To Die. No problems yet. Beyond its annoying existence in my otherwise glee-filled life.

However, I have to keep me company, the entire 1980's Billboard Top Hits cds. That's right, baby! Rick Springfield, Hall & Oates, and even, dare I say, Air Supply. Woo hoo!!

Bear with me. Exaggerated exuberance helps numb the sleep deprivation.

I know exactly where you can get a knock off in Seoul for $150.

[verbicide.livejournal.com]

*sad*

That's about $130 more than I can afford.

It's ugly. Why do you need it?

I KNOW! I have no idea. Stacey is so funny; she read my journal for the first time yesterday and immediately wrote me, calling it 'retail kismet' and chastising me for not asking her for help.

Apparently a knockoff can be mine for only $24.95. But I'm resisting. (And this time without needing you to talk me off the ledge aka ps2)

I've always loved Louis Vuitton in a 'omg that's so ugly it's hot' kind of way. And I hated the Murakami line when it first came out. But now I kind of love it.

It's a sickness ok? I need compassion and not judgment.

*grin*

I can't follow your energy on this particular item, but I know what you mean. Sometimes I see something I know is less than attractive, won't go with anything else I own, and will probably just sit in my closet forever, but it calls to me.

"Devin...buy me! I know I'll be neglected and unloved, but you must have me anyway."

I know! I know! I'm so alone on this one.

When I like something like this, it makes me unreasonably aware of my Los Angeles roots. Like I've somehow been tainted by living there and thus like outlandish, overpriced, freakish things.

I must now go watch something depressing with subtitles and atone.

Hey--up for Greenlake/hanging out this coming week? Or are you bogged down with finals-stuff?

[devinshire.livejournal.com]

Yes! Greenlake sounds great - probably later in the week, if that works for you. I have been SO bad this past week! I've paid almost no attention to my studies. I'll have to kick my butt in gear.

Excellent! Yeah, I have a final project due Tuesday (*whine*) and my sister in law is coming to visit on Wednesday, so howz about Thursday?

Don't let me wimp out due to weather. Bitchslap my ass out there if need be *grin*

[devinshire.livejournal.com]

Thursday sounds great. How does 3:30 sound? I have a midterm that afternoon, so I can't do it any earlier. I hope that works for you. I'm excited (for Greenlake, not the midterm!).

[verbicide.livejournal.com]

Can't wait!

And dude, the day a midterm is more exciting than me, I'm shaving off all my hair and tucking myself into a convent.

3:30 works fine, cause I'm working until 2 anyway!

Also, did you find new webspace? Cause if not, I can give you some. It'll just require that you email me the pictures to upload.

And let's not forget the refridgerator that Jeffrey Dahmer kept the bodyparts of his victims in. That was auctioned off for many thousands of dollars, IIRC.

Ok, so the bag can make sense.

Hrmph. Vengeance WILL be mine. You best start quaking in your 'stylish yet affordable boots.'

(I think you're past that episode, or it's coming up soon)

[brabble.livejournal.com]

*lost*

Must not have hit that episode yet..

[verbicide.livejournal.com]

Ah buggerfuck. Well, you will.

How far away are you from the damn musical again? I wanna watch that one with you, cause I LOVE IT!!

Giles. Oh Giles. How I love thee.
