Ok, do you see the boxes? Do you see them? Oh, my goodness... I need help. Seriously, I need to stop. And I am. I must.
I bought some more makeup, guys. I know, I can't believe it either. Do I need anymore makeup? NO! I have just about every color of eyeshadow available to man. I don't need any more at all. But I bought more. Ugh! Well, one palette I bought to help fill an order so I could get free shipping and the other... well, there's just no excuse. Nope, I have none other than I saw it on another blog, thought the colors were pretty and simply wanted it.
In my defense, I do find shopping cathartic. While others drink or smoke or have sex, I like to shop. But I am careful with my money and never spend what I don't have, but as of recent I have been acting like a maniac. And I don't really know why. Am I bored? Umm... maybe a little. But I gotta get a grip because even though I like to shop, I start to feel overwhelmed when I feel like I am buying too much of something, you know? Maybe I'm just weird, but with all the makeup and eyeshadows and stuff I have I start to panic that I'll never get around to using it all. Like, it's all going to go to waste because I don't even wear makeup every day. Now I know there are lots of people that have way more products than I have so I'm not claiming to have the mother lode of all makeup "collections", but for me it's more than enough. No mas. I cannot buy anymore until I start to go through what I have.
So, as of today, I am giving you permission to slap me if I buy any more crap. I'm serious. Of course, it would have to be a virtual slap, but please give me a verbal tongue lashing if I even attempt to buy another makeup product, mainly eyeshadows. I don't really count lipsticks because I do wear those more often, but blushes and shadows I have an abundance of and haven't even caused a small dent in my stash. So just slap me, guys, if I go astray. Nice and hard. Across the face. Full palm with all five fingers.
*sigh*
lol! enjoyed reading this. but i know what you mean. i find retail therapy cathartic, as well. but me - i have to physically go into the store. its truly self soothing while shopping alone.
ReplyDeleteI hear you. When buying clothes, yes, I prefer to be hands on, up close and personal. But most other things I just cherish the crowd-free, hassle-free, line-free, old lady-counting-her-change-holding-up-the-line-free convenience of shopping online. LOL! But I hear ya!
