Evil Daystar!

 

I'm a big fan of buying music legally. But i'm currently overloaded with CDs. So when I finally decided to give itunes a try it quickly became one of my favorite things. I also discovered thinkgeek, Threadless and Bluenotes and yeah... I might not walk back into a mall for a while. Isa likes having things but doesn't like trekking for it. I'll still go shop for books though. Because bookstores are special. And awesome bookstores like "Planet BD" often have books that I could NEVER find online, rare little gems of great artistic beauty. I always found shopping for books was a discovery and an adventure. Shopping for other things was a long walk with a specific goal. So meh. I pretty much only like shopping with the company of very specific friends. 

This weekend a few friends of mine are visiting To celebrate my birthday. My birthday is actually on the 24th of May, but since it's a national long holiday weekend in Canada, most people have plans (trips and etc). So it's being celebrated in advance. Still fun. I get cake. :D

Mhhh....Yeah, not much to say today. I'm gonna stop here.

I've ordered clothes online, but I'll very rarely do it again. When I need clothes or shoes, I want to see 'em on me before I buy. They can look so good online but like crap on me. They then either rot in my closet, end up given away, or have to be sent back. (I hate sending packages. I'm a horrible wrapper and pros are expensive.) Waste of time and money. Now if, say, I saw something in a store, but it was the wrong color, but the style was flattering, then maybe I'd try online. Or if it is a style I love and want another of, ok, online it is. I'm more likely to buy stuff for other people online, esp. if they hae dropped hints about something available online.

I,m pretty okay for buying every day clothing (read - t-shirts) and goods. I'm pretty much a stick. So fitting clothing is easy. I would never buy shoes online though. Or anything else that requires fitting (like a dress).
