What I resisted buying today

mlch...@mail1.sas.upenn.edu (Melanie L Chang)
I have realized that not buying things I see in stores and want makes me
feel better about myself.
So, today I did not buy a very cute silk/cotton/cashmere blend zip–up
cable–knit hoodie sweater by Sweet Romeo, in pale pink with dark pink
trim. I also did not buy another pair of Blue Cult jeans.
This evening at agility class I did not buy yet another tugging leash for
Solo the Border Collie. (multicolored blue fleece braided with
mountaineering rope for strength)
It might be kind of like self–flagellation but it's kind of interesting
to see how many things I can window–shop, covet, and not buy.

Ohhhh...this is not good. Serious actually, and I'm not sure what the
cure is as it's definitely a first???
