Buyer's Remorse
You know when you wake up in the morning and you are just in a mood? Not a bad mood, but a mood that has you itching to buy something. To fill your life with useless crap just to make yourself feel better.
Yeah, I woke up in THAT kind of mood today. Sigh.
This isn't TOO much of a problem, except that I am trying to save some money for mine and Dave's anniversary weekend. We are going to a fancy schmancy hotel and I wanted to put a bit of money aside from this paycheck so that I wouldn't have to spend a lot of money from my next paycheck.
THIS PLAN DID NOT WORK.
I had been sitting there all day at work, successfully stopping myself from getting up to buy something, but then I thought "Oooo, I need a new jacket". What? Seriously? I could have bought a coffee, a book maybe? Something small so that I wouldn't feel bad about spending a lot of money.
No willpower. I bought a jacket. And now I am suffering from buyer's remorse.
And I didn't stop there. Oh no.
I bought another jacket. And boots. And a bag.
And a scarf.
Oops.
