You'd think this would make me not want to shop as much anymore, but it doesn't.
<-- addict.

If only I were rich, I'd still be out shopping, with my shopping assistant (who has a car with a big boot) and a poodle in a handbag. Wait, no, scratch that last part... Someone else can have the poodle in the handbag. I'm shopping free of encumberance!
... Whut? I don't have a problem! Just drop me off at the nearest book store and nobody gets hurt!

It's about retail therapy, as we call it here in the U.S, Cliff baby!!!
![]() I remember some years ago we were at Sea World here in San Diego. My sister and her husband were with us. Well, a seagull left a big ol' calling card on her shirt, and she had to go to a shop there and get a new one! Yikes.

Hello funners and birdie victims! It's been a while. I tried getting on AW while in China but I kept losing connection. Facebook is banned and I think forums are limited. I had no trouble with emails and some other sites but I had to AW was certainly tricky.
![]() Anyway, back now so hello, hello! Hope everyone is having a happy time. |

Hey, PR. *waves*
And Mary, yes, retail therapy. I haven't shopped as much as I used to lately. What with working a lot over Christmas, and Uni for the past 6 weeks, and then Easter just passed, I haven't had as many opportunities to shop.Also, I'm trying not to buy any CDs, DVDs or books at the moment. I have a huge backlog of books to read, and a fair few DVDs to watch before I can justify buying any more. CDs, well, I've listened to my entire collection many times over, but it's still not high on my list right now. Of course, today I did find an old Nintendo 64 for $70. My one doesn't work anymore, but I still love the old games I had on it, so I want to buy a replacement... It's pricey though because they don't make them anymore - the one I found is in a trade store, where they obviously bought it off someone else and then marked the price up for whoever buys it off them. It's a blessing and a curse that I can always find things I want to buy... Once again, I totally should've been rich. My shopping skills are going to waste on a low income! *dramatic hand-to-forehead gesture*

That cat is eeevil.
Back from work, wrapping up some stuff for the boy's birthday tomorrow. Those d-bags at his work scheduled him, so our plans are crunched, but hopefully he will like his presents

He would've but the past couple of weeks his days off have been Tuesday and Wednesday, and since no other part of his schedule changed, he figured they wouldn't change it. Of course, Murphy's Law or something.

Awesome! Wait'll Silent Rob sees me! Haggis might be sad though --- he likes Morticia. He restored that avie with his own two paws last time he shmooed me.
