shopaholic? YES!

Okay for those of you who don't already know, I am a complete shopaholic. I walk into the store and immediately get tunnel vision. I don't focus on anyone or anything around me except for the clothes, shoes, purses, accesories, etc. You know how you take your time and date a guy and have fun and get to know him before you fall in love? Well that is how I am when I shop. First the item...hmmm lets make it a dress they are my personal favorite. First the dress catches my eye. So... I grab it and hold it up to my body to see if I like it. You could compare this to flirting with the guy or maybe getting to know him. However you still don't know him completely or you haven't tried on the dress yet. Next I carry it around the store with me as I look at other things that catch my eye (which almost EVERYTHING does!) and I repeat step one many times. (you should never get serious with a guy until you know what kind of guy you want, so you date around and decide what kind you want.) that is exactly what I do with the other dresses. I carry them around with me too. Once I have plenty of options I go try them on! I decide if I like them or not and if I want to keep them as an option. This is the part where you get serious with a boy or maybe when you are deciding which guy you want. Now heres the part where it strays from the whole falling in love with a guy story. I most of the time fall in love with everything I try on, and if I don't I at least fall in love with 3/4's of it. So I guess this could be compared to poligamy. BUT BUT BUT I don't want to be known as the poligamist shopaholic. So I guess I shouldn't have compared it to falling in love at all. So basically what I'm saying is I'm a shopaholic. If I am not shopping I am looking at magazines (I'm also a magazine junky) deciding what I want to shop for and anticipating my next trip to the mall. Now here is something amazing. Here is the whole reason I am even writing this story. I think that on blogs you should write about memorable moments and no matter how meaningless this is to you, it was HUGE for me! So, it was black friday eve. yes, some people call it thanksgiving...but I don't even like thanksgiving food so black friday eve fits. I was in bed watching The Proposal over and over again. Yes that may seem boring to some of you; but I was completely okay with that because I watch the same movie for a week straight, I like watching the same movie over and over. I just couldn't fall asleep, I was worried that I wouldn't wake up early enough to go shopping. yeah I had my alarm set but I was worried that it wouldn't go off. This would be the worst day ever for my alarm to fail me. So, I think I got about 1 maybe 2 hours of sleep. Around 4:30 I decided I should get up, after all I felt like I had waited too long already. I got up, went downstairs, got my mom and my grandma and we were off! Wow, a whole day of shopping. Any shopaholics dream come true. AND SALES TOO!!! WOOT!!!!!! So you would realized why I was shocked after we arived to our third store of the day and I was in no shopping mood at all! In fact I was actually wanting to go home. So we went to breakfast. ping! (that was my brain) Of course! I should've known that my second love in life: food, would help me continue my day. so after I was done I was in SHOPPING MODE! I was ready to go and try stuff on then buy it!! I went into one store, got a cart and immediately started to fill it. Once it was overflowing I decided it was time to head to the dressing room. I LOVED everything but somehow talked myself out of buying almost all of them. I fell completely in love with these jeans. No not just any jeans! Skinny, faded, bejeweled, georgous jeans with style! I loved another dress and a skirt but they were both too short and I had to rule those two out. :( sad day. so I was on my way to pay for my one pair of amazing jeans when I saw them. They were purple. They were boots. They were georgous, and I had to have them! So get this!!!! I walked out of the store with a pair of jeans and purple boots! TWO THINGS! ONLY TWO! I was so proud of myself. I had some control. That was a first! I'm not very good with my money and take any chance I get to spend it. and I walked out with two things!!! okay okay stop the clapping. Yes you can argue that I did spend 100 dollars that day, but I did walked out of one store with two things! wow. Anyway,long story short, black friday was the best, in fact I imagine that heaven will be much like that. I'm so glad that I got to go with my mom and my grandma. I love them both!
