Hi I'm Sascha and I'm a spontaneous shopper. I don't ever plan to shop, I just do it. The worst part is, I don't even see it coming. Like the other day when Brent and I were having a day off together and he announced that he'd like to go buy something for himself. About an hour and a half later, I was about $100 poorer--or as I like to say, I had a wardrobe augmentation. I don't ever remember what I bought that day--maybe a new bra? Who knows? Since that day, my wardrobe has also gained a new pair of cowboy boots, two dresses, a skirt and a top--all while I diligently try to think about maybe starting on my Christmas shopping. It's been hopeless.
To make matters much, much worse--I've been working at the mall again for the up-coming issue and
there's a new store. Fortunately, they don't have their full selection yet. Unfortunately, by my next visit to the mall, there will be a Forever 21, Sephora and a Victoria's Secret all
within walking distance. My life is in shamblesssss......
At first I tried to resist but now I know that I have to just go with the flow on this. I've devised a plan--I've been spending the past few hours (and by few, I mean more like most of the day) thinking up exact presents for those on my Christmas list. I figured that if I have something specific in mind, there's no way I'd be tempted to stray from my plan...I hope. I've felt like it's been working so far. Instead of going to websites that I'd be interested in, I've been frequenting "guy" sites, trying to get as much inspiration as possible. So far, I've got four guys to shop for: Ken, Brent, Junior and Jermaine. In case you were wondering, I decided that I don't trust myself around the "girl" sites yet because it might lead to a relapse. The way I see it, until I come up with an awesome "girl present" idea (that would tempt me to shop for myself), should probably back off Victoria's Secret, Bamboo Sky, The Butik, Sephora, American Apparel, Nine West and Neiman Marcus and Nordstrom (the department store and Rack). Sigh...wish me luck. I'll need a
lot of it.
