My downfall is buying ever more books, and wishful clothes in a size that will fit in 20 pounds and a miracle. Oh, and shoes. So, multiple downfalls.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
That's precisely it, MM. Of course, once they actually give me painkillers and I fail to stop typing...then it'll be bad for a much more personal reason.
When I woke up early this morning and was waiting for my nurse to finish being treated, I decided to answer work emails.
Luckily I realised that I was too fucked up to do that. I could tell I'd made spelling errors, but nothing I could do would make the words look right.
I did end up a touch more coherent in the next hour (nurse had to give a report to the police, etc) but even then I ended up resending emails I'd already sent last week.
And I'm scheduled to have a con call in an hour.
Will the painkillers have been administered by then? I certainly hope so, but then again, not.

My downfall is eating out. I am lazy like that.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I have many downfalls. Electronics, clothes, especially second hand. Black shoes discernible from each other only to me. ER visits. Eating out. And electronics all over again.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
MIL in Scotland.
How much do you pay to keep her there?

The eternal search for the perfect purse and the perfect pair of shoes.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Semi-downfall: eating out. It's semi because I do have to eat. Real downfall? Cocktails! It's not good for me, it's too expensive, and a girl DOES NOT have to drink.
On the other hand, I refuse to replace my broken sofa because I am cheap & lazy.

Punishingly Intricate
my downfall is mostly that I don't keep good track of what I spend. That and my pets. I'm sure there are many others.
