I've been trying not to stress buy things on the internet, but I've mostly been failing. I'm trying to keep it to cheap digital books, groceries and gourmet foods, and gifts for ltc's birthday.
I don't like vampires. I'm gonna take a stand and say they're not good.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
It was decided at work that we need to get tested on a regular basis, so I had a test yesterday. Results come through pretty quickly, so I know I'm negative for the virus.

Now tagless for your comfort.
I've been shopping online too much and eating too much.
On the bright side, Wisconsin just got a state mask mandate.

Our wings are not tired.
That's great, Sheryl. Frequent testing helps both in control of the virus and emotional well being.
I've shopped more than I should. Clothes because I didn't pack much thinking I would be returning to Florida, and frankly I wear stuff that is decades old so not crazy shopping. House stuff just because. For a bit I was getting deliveries most every day. I have calmed down somewhat.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I am buying house stuff, come to think of it. Since I'm here all the time and constantly see what needs doing, and Home Depot gave me a credit card.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I've been buying:
1) Tiny little handmade things on Etsy. These are cheap and fannish items such as this one inspired by Fleabag. [link]
2) ABE Books for Children's books that I grew up with like... [link]
3) Discogs to get 7" singles like... [link]

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.
I've mostly been buying makeup (damn you MELT Cosmetics for directly targeting me!), vintage perfumes, and stickers from fan artists.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
A (few) new, or new-to-me tarot decks. Mid-cull and purge, mind you. (Is ashamed)

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I've also been buying some original art from artists I know and sending it to friends for their birthdays. That seems like a double win supporting artists and gifting friends.

Because books.
I had to buy boring shirts for work, and two pairs of pants. Why she wants us in dark stuff in a fucking bakery is beyond me.
I've also binged on $1.99 Kindle deals. Like, a lot. But I did pick up some things for the house, and a new harness for the dog, which she Does Not Like At All.
