The consuming passion

[klwilliams]

After a day of eating worms (I've been feeling under-appreciated at work), I came home to find a birthday coupon from Coldwater Creek in my mail. I hied me to the mall, where, combining the coupon with the remainder of a Christmas gift card, I bought myself two tops. After a great shopping expedition with aberwyn about a year ago I began buying jackets for work. Not boring blazers, but the fashionable kind that look good on women. I now have quite the collection, and a much better work wardrobe. Tonight's shopping brought me more things to wear under the jackets.

I also stopped by Barnes and Noble, where I used another coupon to get Christopher Moore's newest, Fool, for 35% off. I also gleefully snatched the second-to-last copy of Kari Sperring's Living With Ghosts from what had been a rather large "new books" stack. I know it's going to be good, because I read part of it at Milford two years ago.

Now I'm going to play with my new toys.

Yay for retail adventures!

Sounds marvelous. What with hot flashes and office temperatures I've been sticking to one local chain's organic cotton and Lycra scoop neck tops under jackets regardless of the weather. So I collect interesting jackets for work too.

Nifty! on the new tops.

GHOSTS is very good.

Oh, stop eating worms! You're a wonderful person and those gift cards are well deserved.

Geez, some people. :-)

So which tops did you buy (are they in the catalog?)
