On spending in the new year..

[delicious_irony]

Did prep tonight for the week's food. It's coming up to payday, and the last payday I was short by a few hundred dollars as I didn't have quite enough annual leave saved up when I was away. So I didn't get paid for some of it and food budget is a bit tight after Chinese New Year's mandatory spending*. :( So this week will be a symphony of ham and

I pay $70 for my knickers. They match the $120 bra though.

Maybe not at this point of the year though after Christmas and iPad and full time daycare for 2 weeks and operation and french door installation extra costs... Ok, maybe not this *year* ...

Wow. Just jaw-dropping wow. That kickers & bra set probably exceeds what I've spent on underwear in my lifetime.

Yeah... but you also don't have a requirement for excessive enginnering around the ribcage.

[kremmen]

Quite true. ... And I'm sure we're all glad of that! Enough man-boobs in fandom as it is.

The knickers price is actually the astounding part. I expect them to be around 1/5 the cost of bras.

I do whine about the price of the knickers when I buy them... but they are made of very soft lace and blah blah blah, and from England too. When I have money, I like to have matching sets. When I don'[t have money, I don't.
