Window Shopping

What is it about clothes that make us women lose our minds?  I set out this morning with no intention of spending any money.  Which I don’t have, incidentally.  My intention was to buy a newspaper and a cup of coffee.  And window shop.  One of the last pleasures left to women with no money.

I walked past Wizards Vintage.

Out of the corner of my eye I caught a glimpse of them - irresistible, knee high, lace ups boots.  Leather softer than a feather.   As I stared at them, I…

The Marked Man...

We all have a ‘type’. My friends are so predictable, when they tell me they met someone, I already know what they look like before I meet them.

Friend A and her fetish for gym bunnies with shaved heads, Friend B with her fetish for men with large, handsome, bulging wallets, and Friend C and her fetish for muso’s who wear beanies. I can pretty much choose boys for them from a catalogue.

Me? I am the WORST most sickeningly predictable of all.

Every single one of the men…
