Birthday Shopping

It’s my birthday on Friday, and that means, unless I want variations on the following items, all gifted to me by The Boy in the past; chocolate milk, camping supplies, a map book, melted ice-cream, a hotel-esque bathrobe, NOTHING…. I have to give him written instructions on what to buy & where to buy it, or just buy my own birthday present… so I have been looking…

I have positively been DREAMING about a pair of these adorable Birkis Woodby clogs… aren’t they CUTE?! I am torn between the red ones with the cat & the green ones with the cow… ah, who am I kidding…? I want them all.

DON’T BUY THIS WILL YOU?! (Not unless it’s for me, teehee) There is only one and I WANT it. But do I want it more than the shoes….?

…of course I’ve probably left it too late to get myself either of these goodies by the end of the week, so we shall see what ‘treasure’ he has in store for me on the day. He’s been conferring with his boss (…the only other person on the planet that thinks ‘Arnold’ is a great name for a baby today… because of the govinator no less….) about his present selection ooohparently.

I am afraid.

  1. lol be afraid, be very afraid! Always a good plan to buy yourself a present, I agree. otherwise you find yourself having to be so happy for the slippers, dressing gown or nasty shower jel! Happy Birthday for Friday (mine is Wednesday)

  3. Happy Birthday to another person who shares the same birthday as me! I think I may have to write out a list for what I want too just to ensure I will get a pressie that I will love. Your red shoes look very cute too!

  4. Gah Mazabella I am SO TORN! I want the plate so bad but don't know if I can justify the almost $50 it will be on top of whatever "suprises" The boy has in store for me on Friday, whereas the shoes... well... I actually NEED shoes. I have room for shoes.. but that plate sets is calling me... ARGH!

    Sue - Happy Birthday to you too fellow September 10ther! ;)

  9. I am afraid for you!!! Camping supplies! Say it ain't so...

    I buy some 'back-up' presents. There's nothing worse than having the birthday blues. x

  11. I can sympathise. My partner is useless at buying gifts and the children worse - the saddest part it's not because they are genetically bad at it, they're just lazy and remember on the day, or the end of it.
