around downtown

i spent most of yesterday shopping around downtown with my sister and her friend, and at 6pm when we split ways i was proud of my self for conquering my desire to shop, not having bought a thing.

then, randomly on water street, i strangely and simultaneously ran into travis and dani. that's when they and plus a random japanese guy peer pressured me into buying a ridiculous, albeit awesome, pair of pants from dutil (where the girl in pic 2 works).

here's how it went.

travis: oh my god craig. i just tried on the most incredible pair of pants at dutil, but they looked awful on me. you haaaave to try them.
craig: okay. i'll humour you.

minutes later...

dani: craig, you have to buy those, just so i can hang out with you when you're wearing them.
travis: seriously.
craig: oh guys... I don't know...
girl pictured above: okay. those look awesome. and if you don't buy them, this guy here is going to.
super cool japanese guy: nods
craig: okay fine...

i just couldn't let him win. how do you justify your unnecessary purchases?
