Thrive to spite them

Why am I in argument with on someone's FB page having an argument with a stranger about libraries.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

I really want the following high quality but pricey items: Joybird chairs, Casper mattress, and Tiek shoes.

I have a GhostBed, not a Casper, but it's the same kind of bed. We love it. You're able to do 12 months same as cash. Totally worth it for us. The 101-day return policy was awesome.

I splurged and got a pair of Tieks. LOVE them. They're perfect for traveling. You can find pre-loved pairs on eBay for less money.

(Almost didn't hit post because I don't want to sound tone deaf. I just really like those items.)

Heh, you're good! I think Facebook has me pegged, because I heard of all those things from FB ads. Gonna go check the GhostBed now!

I am trying really hard to be optimistic about radio silence, remember that my agent is great about letting me know what's going on, and that the publishing industry moves at a crawl. None of that changes the fact that having a manuscript out for submission is a tortuous waiting game, and the brain raccoons are having great time playing on all of my insecurities.

FB ads and podcast sponsorships! I've heard mixed reviews of the Tieks (not quality but comfort) but I think that's the nature of feet.

I fell in love with these boots today: [link]

Sure, they're mens and about $300 more than I can spend on boots....and I have to buy a pair of winter boots soon...but look at them!

I am attempting sticky buns in honour of the GBBO finale. I'm not sure they've risen enough.

Somehow I knew that link would go to Fluevog even before I clicked on it.

The only thing that stopped me from blowing an unreasonable amount of money on a pair of Fluevogs at Steamposium (Fluevog was a sponsor, so had a big booth) was the fact that they didn't fit my chubby, muscular calves. But they're so pretty!

Fluevogs are so pretty, but I'm not willing to spend money on them without knowing how they would work over my braces.
