Ok…..so I have determined that the number 1 culprit in my corruption is none other than my mom…….it all started with a phone call…..”my car has to go in for a bit, d’you want to go shopping”……..this is an easy answer…..my mom hates shopping….it never lasts long and is often funny (although rarely profitable)…….i can put off my homework for an hour or so……..thanks mom
So we drop off the car……trudge through the rain……get to ONE store, where we proceed to spend over an hour……AND a ridiculous amount of money…..no really…..it gets stupid…..and she encourages me to buy things such as these

based on the fact that they are sooooo funny…….(yes, I purchased boots based solely on their comedic potential)………thanks mom…..
……then I came home and had to figure out how to share this hilarity with others…..so now it is late….and I have a busy evening ahead of me……and no homework has been accomplished today……..doh!.......thanks mom
.......but at least i have some kickin' boots......jessica, eat your heart out!
