Oh dear god, I need to stop going online while trying to be conservative (or rather, stingy) with my spending until my bank account recovers from the move. Because when I go online and read my friends page on LJ, I come across things like
this, and I end up wanting them so very, very badly.
Eeeeeeee, it doesn't help that the dress is less than $50 (which means I'd normally snap it up without agonizing) and it's a very limited item (only 12 available? TEASE!), so I have to make a decision very quickly.
Well, I've already made my decision.
I just need to figure out which is worse: being weak and buying this dress a few days after making my 1st mortgage payment ever when I should be conserving funds, or pining away over a supremely awesome and affordable dress that would be so fun for summer and fall, for weekends and Drac's Ball... oh my god, I love the dress so much I'm writing unintentional poetry about it. But while it's currently sitting in the shopping cart, I have not yet hit the checkout button. Rawr.
Maybe I should just swear off of LJ until I've decided to let myself buy stuff for myself instead of for my house. Stupid steampunk communities and their stupid posts showing stupid pictures of their awesome sale stuff.
