At least I'll be warm and cosy in hell

Christmas is the time of giving and an excellent opportunity in trying not to be a selfish cow.

I've bought the Big Issue - hard to say no when you've just spent x-amount on interior decorating magazines - and I've chosen some fair trade presents etc. All in all I would say that I was on a good run of becoming a Golden Child in the run up for Christmas spirit.

Until yesterday.

We stepped into a shop in search for a present for Boyfriend's sister's partner (confused? So am I). After a quick look around we realised that they didn't have what we were after so we headed back towards the escalators. And. Then. I. Saw. IT!

So pretty! So I bought it. I don't really need it as in "I'm naked and haven't got anything to put on which means I'm freezing my tail off" kind of need. But I needed it in an all together different way; I just knew it would make me happy and a better person at the same time + it was half price even though half price was more than what I would have paid for it but it somehow justified me buying it.

I'll find a charity-person with a bucket today and toss in some money. Hopefully that'll take me back up to the top of the unselfish-person list. I hope. But to be completely honest, I'm not really sure I care anyway. The coat is friggin' lovely!
