Modcloth possibilities
Jul. 19th, 2013 11:09 pmI am down to my last few squares of toilet paper. Ordinarily, of course, I would merely go and buy more (or at least fully intend to do so before having to rely on tissues through laziness), but now that I have only a week to go, I do not really wish to buy a whole new pack. I had intended to "borrow" some from work but I forgot. I am irrationally irritated by this. It feels like defeat to buy some, and yet it also feels like rank idiocy not to.
It turns out Bruges has a chocolate museum AND a museum of frites! I look forward to both, and possibly also a boat ride.
I am thinking of risking another Modcloth purchase, as I have a refund and some vouchers. I asked them to do some measuring and I might be able to work with these:

http://www.modcloth.com/shop/dresses/my-moon-my-plan-dress-in-plus-size
http://www.modcloth.com/shop/dresses/guest-of-honor-dress-in-varsity-stripes
But then back in the SG I can go back to wearing jeans and t shirts, and having awesome hair! So I don't need dresses for work any more. So perhaps I should look at the homewares stuff instead. I could get a Sam and Golum salt and pepper shaker: http://www.modcloth.com/shop/kitchen-gadgets/salt-and-precious-shaker-set !

On the loo roll front, could you just buy a pack of two? I'd get through two rolls in a week. (Actually, I get through a lot more than that because of reasons.)
I hope the frites and the chocolate museums live up to their promise!

After I found my lovely jeans were through at the thigh I went on ebay and found some that seemed to be the same, but even if they don't at the very least I will ahve something to patch them with.
