the addiction

Seriously, and sadly, there are few things more enjoyable to me than shopping.
Pure, unadulterated shopping. And for anything - not just clothes! I could go shopping for Paulie for hours. Same goes for home furnishings, groceries, gifts for loved ones, books... I've realized over the years that it's less about the purchase and more about the experience - the smell of the store, the tactile extravaganza of different fabrics, the colors, the shapes, the patterns, matching things, or finding those things that are most diametrically opposed. In a way, it's about art for me - feeding my artistic eye.

Then again, I could never turn down a good sale item!!
