Good thing I blew major money on Monday because I have given up frivolous spending. That's right, you heard me: FRIVOLOUS SPENDING.
Snicker if you will but that is my Lenten discipline.
What qualifies as frivolous spending you ask?
Those leopard pumps THAT ARE ON SALE will not make me run faster or jump over tall buildings. They would make me even more awesome than I already am, but should one just flaunt one's awesomeness all the time to the unwashed masses? Not during Lent. Leopard pumps = frivolous.
How many shades of brown eye shadow does a body need? Realising of course that the color brown really encompasses colors from weak tea to dark chocolate. I don't think the one shade I do not possess is going to be the deciding factor in whether or not I decide to get out of bed that day (Although if I get any more hormonal....)
New eyeshadow = Frivolous
Do you see where I am headed with this? I have all the STUFF I should ever need (notice I did not say want). Surely I can make it through Lent.
If you want to buy those pumps FOR me let me know and I will tell you my size.

Wait, you were shopping for leopard pumps?
Indeed! I thought they would look smart with my black pencil skirted suit.
Of course she wasn't SHOPPING for them, they just reached out and grabbed her.
I was surprised you didn't mention that new eyeshadow is rarely frivolous in your world. You know, since you don't do drugs or have any other expensive habits...
I'm giving up frivolous as well! Just call me "Ellie Mae" cause what I gave up (not voluntarily) was my dryer and so far am doing the makeshift clothesline thing. My attempt at being frugal is to buy a dryer that "will do" until I can afford the $1500 set that practically sorts itself, washes, dries, folds and puts away...now that will be frivolous!!
Are you talking about my nonexistent drug habit or your mom's?
I will be consumed with jealousy when you get the set that does it all itself!
I was talking about your non-existent drug habit, Abby. Makeup is your crack.
Yea, and after reading Ms Ann's blog about the eyeshadow it made me want a new one. BAD.
