She came, she saw, she conquered Topshop

The admittedly heartier half of Team Shopping was reunited recently for a brief but glorious sojourn in London during which time Shara, Team Captain, took on the January sales and won. She bought a lot of fabulous and fashionable items, the likes of which would leave Clinton and Stacy kissing her well-shod toes in adoration. But let's steer this

why did you return the boots? you didn't give an explanation for the shopping bulimia. i'da returned the cardigan. or SWEATER, as we call them here.

[mt_morphine]

Shopping bulimia IS the explanation. It's just something I'm working through.

Also, cardigans here are cardigans there (occassionally they are "cardis" here, but not when I'm wearing them). JUMPERS here are sweaters there.

all things made of wool are sweaters. whether they have buttons or zips or velcro. sweaters. because they are for sweating in, irrespective of whether that sweat was worked up by jumping or carding (wool, or people at the door).

god, don't you know ANYTHING???? if that had been on your grant application form, you would never have got that $4 million dollars.

Shara came??? and you went SHOPPING????? and D was there too????????

I am officially, unbecomingly jealous. You better not have shopped her out. I'm meeting her in Vegas next month!

Not to worry. Shara is a professional.

Right. And in my professional capacity, you are getting a pounding. What is the matter with you? Those are freaking awesome boots. (Shopping bulimia is NOT an explanation.)

Janey, it's go time (in Vegas). Clear your carte de credit, we're going to do some damage (to your card).

Dude, don't worry. The boots are back and now they fit. Lesson learned: I have huge, rippling calves.

My name is Mary and I am a shopping bulimic. With huge, rippling calves.
