Collect this: You Are Important
Oh, I have done a bad, bad thing: I just bought the medium-size print of this kick-ass photograph by Stephanie Cinelli from 20x200, and I know, I know, two hundred dollars for a photograph you love is really not a huge expense, but I am the same girl who, just last night, asked her boyfriend if he wouldn’t mind paying for dinner at Art’s Deli on Ventura Boulevard (even though she tries to offer to pay every other time and it was definitely her turn) because she didn’t know if she had enough money in her checking account to cover the bill. And I am the same girl who, at the age of thirty-four years and eleven months, has only $143.37 in her savings account. But come on, who can resist this photograph with all its sadness and humor, Listerine and Barbasol? This photograph is fucking it as far as I’m concerned. And besides, I’m just doing my job to stimulate the economy. Do yours here.
P.S. My trying-not-to-spend-money thing is going really well.

Hilarious, I love it! I am in the same boat right now. I have a friend going to IKEA on Friday but I refuse to go because I know that it would only lead to spending money.
Yeah, I almost never shop in person anymore, but you wouldn't know that to look at my credit card bills. Well, I guess you would know it if you looked closely enough to see the .com at the end of every store name.
