Tonight's menu consists of two fried eggs, a bagel, and a very, very large glass of pink gin.

Mmm. Pink gin.

I'm an admitted lush.

Good to hear! I even have the poverty lifestyle down. I'm drinking Taaka. It's 7 dollars per liter. :D

...I bought nine bags of half off candy at the store the day after Halloween and it's almost all gone now. I'm an adult, promise.

I don't suffer from stress-eating, however....... stress-shopping.

I'm constantly scowering online stores, looking at clothes, jewelry, makeup. I have only ordered twice so far (both for birthdays - ok ok one is my own birthday), but I know I'm playing a dangerous game here :unsure:

Update: grapes!

(they're fermented. it's actually wine. often with bendy straws. It's fine.)

@Bugaboo, Solid life choice. I might drink some now.

I'm stress eating cookies. I bake two or three a night and browse gradcafe. Why is this so stressful?!

@bugabooo An old roommate of mine and I used to drink cheap wine with crazy straws after finals! Either straight from the bottle, or from a mug, depending on how long the crazy straw was. Class. :)

I've had my girlfriend (bless her soul) making routine trips to McDonalds and Taco Bell for McDoubles and Mini Quesadillas. At this point, I'm hoping I explode before the rejections get to me.

I almost don't eat. I mean, I do, but I don't feel food; don't enjoy food. I know that one of my top choices is going to decide next week. Would you it in this situation?!

You should check out the colour pop lipsticks! They're only $6 each and free shipping if you spend over $30. It's my stress-obsession

Drown my fears in cheap booze?

That's what I'd probably do.

Just bought a tablet and a bunch of books. It's a disease.

I wasn't stress eating for this past month... that is until girl scout cookie season started. My SO got 5 boxes of sweet, sweet goodness.

I need to find a Girl Scout. Some thin mints would help ease the stress, right? ;)

What's your favorite kind?

Thinmints of course! We had three boxes of those.

I stress shop, too. It's really bas because I just quit my retail job recently because I was hired to help with a cool research project. This is my first weekend where I have things to do, but don't have to be anywhere to do them, so I'm doing probably six months of laundry. (Over the past six months I've done a load per week, but worn more than a load of clothes per week.) I am currently horrified at the amount of clothing I purchased while working at a cute boutique. O.o

Yeah, I am stress shopping, too. I like to tell myself that I am buying clothes because it is necessary--I'm going into a new phase of life with grad school, etc. Complete justification.

I bought a fountain pen while stress shopping.

For stress-eating, my go-to has become Bourbon biscuits (basically just British chocolate sandwich cookies). But for some cruel reason, the grocery has been out of them for a WHOLE WEEK. I don't know what to do with myself.
