This is ME also. My dad HOUND’s me alot about my shoppeing, so often I do NOT buy stuff b/c he knows right away b/c he check’s my credit card’s 2-3x week. FOOEY!
I hope when I get MARRIED that my husband will be a littel MORE forgiveing of my clotheing allowance and NOT hit the ceeling when I spend alot. Dad does NOT realize that I need to look good for work, and especialy when I go into court. There I think I win more motion’s b/c of the clotheing then anything else. YAY!!!!!

OMG apparently Ellen and I have the same shopping philosophy. This is either TERRYFEIYING or the best THING everr.-----------------------------------------I have a dual pronged approach.I use “qualtiy” as a guide for work items – only real leather, no faux leather…..Theory……J Crew…..better brands for work items. I buy almost EVERYTHING from Ebay. What I don’t buy from ebay, I buy from a shop that sells designer samples.And then I try to go trendy and cheaper for casual items, things I might wear on the weekends or evenings out (think Forever 21 or similar)…I mix in a few of the trendier items with my qualtiy work wardrobe and wear to work just to keep things fresh.
I agree the second one is not our Ellen. Ellen would never shop on ebay for anything (not sure if she is that internet saavy). Also, I agree there was a good post you missed last Friday where she was consoling another young woman who did not get an offer from a law firm where she summered:

Hug’s to you, and FOOEY on them. But Do NOT worry. I was in the same boat, MABYE worse. I also did NOT get an offer, so I went back my third year, and FORGOT all about it. Even when I gradueated, I did not have a good job, but I passed the bar. As fate would have it, I was doing PROCESS serving for a guy with alot of hair on his back when I bumped into the manageing partner in an elevator. He gave me a real legal JOB b/c he thought I had a personality. After less then 5 year’s he has offered me a partnership! So it does work out and now the manageing partner says I am indespensible! YAY!
I am FINALLY abel to go back to NYC tonite — Ed is dropping me off in the City on his way back to Chapaqua with Rosa and the babies, and Roberta is meeting me tomorrow in the Bronx – I was going to have to take the Express Bus up there to meet her, but Myrna says she will drive and Roberta is buying me DELI! Yay! I love my mom’s cooking, but I am getting fat eating all of the stuff she made me! I ate so much Matza Ball Soup that my tuchus started to explode today. It was lucky I stayed home with the babie’s b/c they ate the same soup. Dad had to meet a guy from the goverment today – something about computer security breeche’s. Fooey! Dad spends alot of time talking about things I have no clue about.
I am glad that I can forget about men this weekend. No Jim stareing at my boobies and no Harold making comments about my tuchus. Now, David is texting me again but that is it. Fortuneately, I told Sam to let me NOODLE on whether we will see each other again, and I said to him dont text me; I will mabye text you. So far so good. I am lookeing forward to a relaxing weekend with Roberta and Myrna. Have a great weekend, Kat and also the entire HIVE!!!! YAY!!!!!
