In which Sam finds stationery and froths over it all

I have a stationery addiction. I can’t help it, but even if I could I wouldn’t want to stop. I want need a new pencil case because my existing one is a little too chunky, so when I was in the city today I went looking for any and all stores selling cute stationery. There is one I went to on Queen Street (main street of CBD) that sells cheap Japanese goods, but their cases were rubbish, then I remembered this gift shop I went to in 2006, so I went to find that.

Oh my fuck, stationery heaven! And Hello Kitty, and bento boxes, and Sanrio plushies, and STUFF. I maybe peed my pants a little from the excitement (not really; that would be weird). I spent ages picking out the perfect pencil case and then I found a headband for $3; I stopped there because I knew I did not have much money left.

In fact, it turned out that I did not have enough money to buy anything. My card declined. Twice.

FOR SHAME!

I’m going back tomorrow, of course.
