I swear this is the third pair i've went through in a month.. Grrrr... I saw these ones that are $80...Yeah right..I'm so mad right now ...
I remember one year I did all my Christmas shopping early and everything was great. Well great that is until late one night when we were snowed in and I was jonesing for something sweet.The only way out of my apartment was out the front and the stairs had all iced over (It had snowed, then rained, then snowed, if you live in canada you'll know what I mean). In desperation, I went under the tree, unwrapped the ginormous Toblerone I had bought for Jay and I sat blissfully eating it and watching LOTR.Mwahaha..I went to Shoppers Drug Mart the next day and bought him a replacement that was like 3 dollars more than the one I had originally gotten from Walmart.It's funny because I actually was really mad and the whole way home I cursed my weakness.So the next time I was iced in and I was jonesing for a snack, I took a hammer and a crowbar and I went outside and started chiselling it all off.I think that was pretty amusing for the neighbours and people passing by on Barton street cause I probably looked like a crack head having a fit. lol... sitting out there in my winter jacket and shorts with my feet in jay's shoes which seem ten sizes bigger than my feet.If only my life was the Truman Show how amusing it would be.Way better than the manufactured reality crap they have on TV nowadays.
Moral of this story :
Don't give into weaknes, unless you plan to pay more $$$
or, you know, next time, buy two Tobelerones...
Ok, so maybe this makes me a huge loser, but sometimes grown up life gets to me.I need to return to the safety of my childhood, and just for a few hours escape reality.I slip into that blanket of escapism that film seems to offer.Especially around the holidays. Everything is so commercial and I absolutely cannot stand christmas music. Instead I watch cartoons and christmas movies. If you are a humbug around christmas time,give it a try :)
