Damn myself to hell

I hate myself. I am a fucktard. It is only the 2nd of July and already I am frustrated and rattling the bars of this cage. I thought of no less than five million things I suddenly urgently had to buy now that I am not allowed to buy anything for the whole month of July. I want hair dye (don't care what colour just want some) I want a Moroccan glass in which to store my toothpaste, I want new hot pink fish net socks after tearing a whole in my current pair, I want a pair of nifty purple rubber wellies and a new and exciting beret, I want THINGS.

I have already broken the Man Embargo by agreeing to meet the editor of SeeSee Magazine to discuss his excellent magazine over coffee. I made the appointment in good faith thinking Sunday was the 30th of June but I was in fact incorrect. I desperately want to break the Man Embargo again and reply to two very curious comments left on this blog by men but I can't, that would be a blatant breach of the rules and I would have to punish myself and then I might cry. I don't even know what the punishment would be. Maybe not spending any money, interacting with any men and keeping to a strict schedule of writing blind film reviews for the whole month of July? Ha! I really am a fucktard.

I love your blog and read it regularly. Your courage to be honest has made you an ever of friends that you would never find otherwise. I found your site from gempires and would like any others you could recommend.

Thanks Penn, I like the blogs and sites I've got listed under Things of Use or Wonder. Rupert's blog of course comes with a little warning as it is explicit.

After a month of waiting, the hair dye / pink socks / moroccan glass etc will seem oh so much better, and you will be oh so much richer.

Does not buying anything include alcohol?

I have 'buy nothing days' all the time where I spend absolutely zero dollars and exist on what is already in the cupboard. Of course, I plan these days to coincide with not having to go anywhere, and I make sure there is already plenty of stuff in the house to eat. But a whole month?

Actually, come to think of it, I rarely buy anything except household necessities. Normally this is all I can afford. I am sadly lacking in New Things. So maybe I wouldn't find it hard at all.

In fact, for the past two months I have done exactly that. Wow. I did The Experiment without even noticing.

If you can do it I can do it, hopefully.

Well, yes, I'd have to agree that you are a fucktard. But such a nice and amusing one.
