Shopping Binge
May. 20th, 2007 06:55 pmI'm not one to buy so many things in one go.
I'm really dreading my credit card bill this month... yikes! But it was so worth it.
I got a book for my birthday which I exchanged for two better ones, no more book shopping until Book Week! I must keep reminding myself of that fact, since it's not that big a difference in price there's always a much larger selection in one place, so, ya know you end up paying more.
*shrug* it's Book Week!
I got a really neat monochromatic shirt which was on sail and now that I have bras that are actually supportive (what was i thinking putting off bra shopping for over a year, ach!)
And at the Music Shop almost all the Joni Mitchell albums were 40 shekels! That's nothing. So I bought three ("Blue", "Clouds" and "Herjira") I also bought Tracy Chapman's self titled album and the Joni Mitchell Tribute album.
I love Joni Mitchell... I'm reminded by something Karen - Emma Thompson's character in "Love, Actually" - said regarding Joni Mitchell, "She brought life into your [my] cold English wife's heart".
After listening to Sinead O'Connor, Alanis Morissette and The Dresden Dolls for the past few months almost non stop and considering how, um, ragey? I've been during that time period, I think the slow groove of Joni and Keren Ann will do me good.
In addition, the genocide in Darfur must be stopped.

Date: 2007-05-20 05:12 pm (UTC)April's credit card - down on May 15 - was 996 NIS for me. This month i'm pretty sure I already have something in, plus i'm expecting >500 NIS at Book Fair, plus 120 for train tickets - yeah, the Jun15 bill is going to be hellish, too.
I'm pretty sure I can take two months like that... but just because I got that >3000NIS bill from the army not too long ago. Otherwise, it may have been a problem.
