The 13-bedar Saga in Irvine, CA

Yesterday i thought maybe i should stop boycotting 13-bedar after 6 years.

I thought it would be nice to go walk around, see some old friends, make some new ones and reminisce about the past.

Then I realized my sunglasses broke last week and I need a new pair--perhaps a Gucci one.

And I need new shoes for 13-bedar, something chic but comfortable and sexy at the same time.

I also need a new pair of jeans; I can't possibly wear the same old pairs and walk around; it might be bad luck.

Oh, and of course need a new top with a cute jacket for the afternoon when it gets cold.

Do i even have the right shade of eye shadow?!

All this would probably cost me a good $500 minimum.

I thought for one second longer, and then decided naaaaaah...I can just walk to my backyard and spend some time on the grass area alone, become one with the new earth, while wearing my pajamas and it would be much more cost-effective and "real".

The boycott shall continue...taa khoon dar rageh maast...
