Shopfession: Something Tiny and Something Showy

I was bad. There was a crack in the ice of my shopping freeze. I bought a book and tickets.

I procured Tiny Homes: Simple Shelter by Lloyd Kahn. I went to add it to my Powell’s wish list and saw they only had 1 copy left. My lack of impulse control means I bought it. With shipping and paying full price, I spent a grand total of $22.49. I love seeing the inside of tiny houses and it’s supposed to have a lot of photos. It feeds my desire to see how other people live and lay out their spaces but also how to make the most of a little space. Tiny houses are a little extreme for me but I’m not a Rockefeller so if/when I buy a house, it won’t be huge.

I also bought tickets to a live Welcome to Night Vale show. It's touring through DC at the end of March. It's on Saturday night a few weeks after my birthday. I bought myself tickets as a birthday present to myself and was promptly shafted a $17 processing fee to print tickets at home. At least this one was on an experience I can share with someone. So much for being good until April.

I have an update on my ModCloth dress. It wasn’t the forgiving jersey cotton I was expecting. It turned out to be more of a stiff poplin so I put in to exchange it for what should be the right size. We’ll see what happens.
