Addictions and Leather

Among my many addictions (AFL, alcohol, chocolate, Trainer Bob, Benefit cosmetics, shagging inappropriate men) is an addiction for Ebay.

Seriously.

I am addicted to buying shit I really don't want or need purely for the thrill of "winning"* an auction. I'm on Ebay pretty much every day, bidding away. And most of the sellers on Ebay just give a stock standard description of what they're selling. There's not much to it.

So imagine my delight when Von Krankipantzen posted this fabulous Ebay link on her site yesterday (well, today my time since she's in the northern hemisphere, but let's not get picky here).

I had no idea you could be that descriptive and funny when selling your old crap on Ebay. I'm inspired. But I'm not willing to part with my leather pants (Warehouse, Hampstead High Street, London, circa 1997) just yet. They're my "fight the flabby belly" inspiration item of clothing.

But thanks for brightening up my Ebay addiction VK! Oh and I agree - I wish I'd written it too...
