Fidgety Friday
I have so much to say, but no words are coming out.
Usually this then turns into a lot of words all coming out, but this time — I don’t want to talk about things because they involve other people, in some way or another. Or because I don’t know how to start thinking about them.
So, should I buy this purse? It’s on sale, 30% off. I like brown and turquoise, and I can use a new purse (possibly I am unhappy and am trying to hide it in purchasing things I can’t afford), and it’s big, but will I get sick of it really soon? I cannot decide.

Hm. I can really see the attraction of that purse, but it’s not cheap. Do you *long* for it? It doesn’t sound like it–it sounds like you like it, and yeah, practically speaking it works, but…. If you’re trying to be talked into it just b/c you want to buy something, then you’ll probably regret it, and you should spend the same amount of money on something really indulgent that you DO love, instead.
OTOH, how much trouble do you have finding purses you really like? If you’re picky, and you think this one is awesome, and you can afford it, what the fuck: go for it.

I don’t love it. If I loved it, I would have bought it (not on ebay, in a nearby store). But I like it a lot, and I do have trouble finding purses I like that much (which is why I am in such desperate need of one). But it is expensive. And possibly sold by now. I suspect since I don’t regret not having bought it, and since I didn’t think about it today except when reading this comment, I do not want it enough. Alas! I really need a purse.
