my expensive day
I went shopping today.
All in all, I think I spent $1000, about half of which is on Icebreaker tops (it's all![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
stef94's fault!) some of which was on a pair of comfy shoes and various winter clothing bits and bobs, most of which will go down to Taswegia with me.
Eh. It's expensive stuff, but good quality. I plan for them to last me another few years...assuming I don't put on more weight and end up looking like a doughboy or something.
ladysorka has an interesting post on being a virgin in the modern fandom and the attitudes towards virginity, as well as the stupidity of people who claim you're not a feminist if you're a virgin. There's quite a bit of Virgin Pride in the comments. And some UnVirgin Word, too. :)
Incidentally, I think that claiming a virgin can't be a feminist is about as bright as claiming that a person who's had kids can't be pro-choice.
Fly out of Sydney tomorrow 8:30am, arrive Taswegia 10:30am. Going diving on Friday (*gnaws nails*). Must remember uggboots 'cos it's cold down there, campers!

I lost my very warm and cozy and perfectly-fitted pocket hat this winter and I haven't been able to find a new one in =any= of the stores here. And I mean =any=. I've tried stores in Rotterdam, The Hague, Amsterdam, and they only have a limited stock of shirts, and nothing else :-(
How I wish for a Snowgum around the corner.. or rather not, cos I'd be spending too much money *g*
But just to get a new hat :-(

Icebreaker pocket hat? I can try to locate one for you in Oz if you like, send it back your way?

And winter in Sydney would be better than winter in Canberra or Tassie...
