Day 29 of 61

Day 29 of 61: Lust List II

When I wake up, when I walk to the train, while I'm on the train, when I walk to work, once I get to work, all day at work, on the way home, and even now....all I can think about is my Lust List II.

It consumes my existence. Lust: A passionate or overmastering desire or craving. This is what I have. I caught this incurable disease in college. All that Purell failed me. I have taken shots for my body to reject it, but Lust fights against my red and white blood cells. It weakens my immune system and leaves me dizzy (maybe this is why I'm dizzy?! I wish.)

Lust List II: (blame the weather)

1. A fur hooded, full-length winter coat, with elastic cuffs (wind rejection)
2. Two winter hats: one with flap ears and the other a knit one (I lost about 15 on the train last winter)
3.Two pairs of gloves: One that is ugly but made for below zero protection (my phalanges get sooooo cold), and the other dressier ones with fuzzy insides ( I lost about 15 pairs on the train, along with all my hats.)
4. "Idiot glove attachers" (soooo I don't lose any this winter)
4. Snow boots that make me look like abominable snow bunny (I really want 10 pairs of boots)
5. Three scarves: one extra thick blanket kind, and the other two hipster cool for work

Crap, now I'm going to lust about my Lust List II while I try to sleep, while I'm sleeping, and when I wake up. It's no good my friends, no good. I think I'm going to ask those flu shot clinics, if they have a shot for Lust. I wonder how much it will cost me?? What do you think the side effects are? Hump my own leg?

Anyways, remember when I went to the doctor about my dizziness a few weeks back? Bah humbug, it's back. I had to cancel Tess the Trainer tonight because of how awful I feel. It's so alarming, and confusing. Doctor says a-okay, my body says not even close. I know what your thinking....I just wanted to get out of my workout. NO WAY, to be honest, I enjoy my workouts lately. I'm bummed I don't get to work out with her this week. Today is a no-go because of the crazy dizziness, and the other day this week is a no-go because my monthly enemy kicks my a**!

Goodnight,
Discouraged Shopaholic

  1. I guess the cold weather has hit Chicago, your lust list included all winter like items. I thought you had a coat with a fur hood? Anyhow, your list is just that...lust! Your items from last year were pretty hot, I'm sure you could make due! I'm sure this is extremely hard for you my love, hang in there!
