It's good for my wallet if nothing else

[yvannairie]

Other impulsive neuroweirds/OCD overpreparers: *block Amazon, Etsy and eBay on their computers, limit how much money they carry to avoid impulse purchases, lock away their credit cards to avoid overdraft*

Me: *agonises over purchasing common house-hold items like pot holders, towel hooks and a stepladder, longingly gazing at them at shops both online and off, until finally ripping off the bandaid the second one is on sale at a shop despite transporting it being a problem*

(Which is to say that after three years of desperately needing one, I finally own a stepladder -- the alltogether third seat in my entire apartment.)

(Now if only I could bring myself to buy those tablecloth pins, hand weights and bottle opener within this decade, we'd be solid.)
