CONFESSIONS OF A SHOPAHOLIC

I know I have a problem and I JUST CANT HELP IT!!! So, my cousin just purchased a new lap top for a low, low, very low price. She told me about the place and I went on the website and got ADDICTED!!! I've been debating and debating about this laptop. I went several days dreaming about this. Today, I just COULDN'T TAKE IT!! I could not resist the deal. I went so far as to go on my lunch break to get it. This is how serious it was... My lunch break started a 1/2 hour before the store's closing time. Google maps shows the place being 17 minutes away. I got there in about 8 minutes. Talk about time management. Anyway, I get to the store and it's sooooo busy. My head just dropped. Mind you, a few blogs back I talked about my timing issues. But, I REFUSED to leave without that precious contraction. I search and search and VIOLA, it called my name. It begged me to take it from it's confining box, and treat it with tender loving care. Finally, I find an associate and rushed him to close the sale. By the time I walked out the door, I had 19 minutes to get back. I was soooooo anxious. Like I said before, there's ALWAYS a hold up when you're in a rush. I make it out the parking lot and turn the corner to get back on the highway. WTF!! Construction. I'm yelling at the top of my lungs at slow movers and of course there's only one lane. I make it on to the ramp and there's more construction, with flashing red and blue lights. GREAT!!! No speeding for me. YEAH RIGHT! There was no way I could spend unnecessary money AND be late. Luckily, my job is located where the police station has about 2 cars. LOL. Off I went. As soon as I pull inside the office lot, BAM!!! One minute to go. I've never ran so fast in my life. But I made it. I guess it was a win-win situation after all. Impulsive shopping, almost drag-racing, yelling and screaming. Adrenaline can work wonders. Wouldn't you say??
