Dear Diary,

I have spoiled myself and I'm happy that I did it! Over the weekend I wasn't feeling 100% but had to go to the store for work anyway. So in a moment of weakness, not only did I adopt Jade but I got myself some fancy new crayons!!



Yes, I actually paid for fancy new crayons!! Lookie, they are twistables!! They aren't supposed to break as easily and never need to be peeled or sharpened. It took a minute for me to learn how to use them to stay in the lines because of the plastic holder around the crayon, but I like them a lot.

And I'm happy that I did.

I consider it a spoiling myself because I really didn't need new crayons. A new green and a new black crayon would of worked, but I didn't need a whole new pack. My old crayons are broken and peeled, almost colored out. I keep them in a old butter bowl with a lid so they get banged around a lot.

I'm a crayon-snob. They have to be Crayola. There is no if-ands-or buts about it, they have to be Crayola. They are the only ones that don't melt crooked in my hand while I color and snap when I try to "fix" them back. I color when I'm upset or angry as an emotional outlet, so my power isn't always super gentle. :) But Crayola stands up to my strength and still makes a pretty color in the books.
