I was doing so well. I made it through the holidays and stuck to my New Year's Resolution for almost an entire month. I felt lighter. I had more energy. My mind was clearer. I was no longer slurring my sentences.
After an entire season of exhibiting steady discipline and controlled restraint, I regret to admit that I have fallen off the wagon. I have been on a binge. I have been bingeing bad, bingeing like a Delta Delta Delta sorority girl on Spring Break in Cabo.
It's the stress, I tell myself. I need an escape. I need to forget my troubles, drown my sorrows. This is why I binge. This is why I binge on shoes.
I splurged on a pair of Michael Kors espadrilles on Monday, and the moment my toes touched the soles, I was already jonesing for my next pair.
"You have a pair that looks just like those", says my boyfriend.
"I know. It's a sickness. Please don't leave me."
I'm moments away from my next bender and will probably order these Undercover Fringe Wedges from Chinese Laundry during Happy Hour on Friday. They're pretty Pochahantas, but I dig that.
And fringe rhymes with binge.
