Confessions of a Designer Handbag Junkie
As you are likely aware, I am a designer handbag fanatic. I have
been advised by family and friends that this could be developing
into a problem, but I am confident that I have it under control.
Sure, I have bounced my rent check to purchase a new purse. Who
hasn't? There have been times when I have skipped out on my
utility bills, so I would have enough cash to buy a new handbag.
Who wouldn't?
I have spent countless nights dreaming about shopping for the
latest fashionable designs. So what if I want to have Kenneth
Cole's babies. I really don't see the problem here. To make my
mother happy, I have made the following pledge (ever-so-loosely
based on the "twelve step" program):
My name is Cathy, and I am addicted to designer handbags and
high fashion. I admit that I am powerless over Prada, and that
my life has become unmanageable in certain respects. I have
faith that a power greater than Dior can restore my sanity. I
have made a pledge to turn my will and my life over to the power
of the House of Gucci. I have made a searching and fearless
inventory of every handbag on bagborroworsteal.com.
I have made an admission to Chloe, myself, and my friend Sara
regarding the exact nature of my wrongs. I am ready for Melie
Bianco to remove all these defects of character, and I humbly
implore her to remove my shortcomings. I have made a list of all
the handbag designers I have harmed with my caustic language,
and I am ready and willing to make amends to them all. I have
gladly continued to take personal inventory of all my designer
purses, and when I was wrong it was promptly admitted.
I have sought through prayer and meditation to improve my
conscious contact with Vivienne Westwood as I understand her,
praying only for knowledge of her will for me and the power to
carry that out. After having this spiritual awakening, I have
tried to carry this message other handbag junkies. I have tried
to apply these principles in all my erm.....affairs. My name is
Cathy, and I am addicted to designer handbags and high fashion.
