Shop Til You……………..Dropped

I would rather stick a hot poker in my eye than go shopping.
I used to love shopping.
But something happened…………………
I got tired
I got busy
I got lazy
I got to looking at the weird things that have happened to my body.
and something happened………………………
Clothes got skimpy
Clothes got very low cut
Clothes got way colorful
Clothes got sizes mismarked
and something happened……………………
Dressing rooms got smaller
Dressing rooms got brighter
Dressing rooms got ugly
Dressing rooms are no longer my BFF
sigh……………………

I used to love clothes shopping.
And then I got phat.
I used to love to go shoe shopping and then my feet got wider because I got phat.
So now I love to shop for books, electronics, purses, movies, software, things for my house & the kids.
I miss cute clothes. :/

I’ve always kinda hated trying stuff on, but now I dislike shopping because of the mall rats [I realize I used to be one of those and this revelation makes me officially an old woman].
The size mismarking is extraordinarily irritating, indeed.
Hey, think of all the money we’re saving now

I remember being 20 and trying things on and thinking I looked hideous. I only wish I looked that hideous now!
And what the HECK is with low cut tops? Like the entire populace needs to see everybody else’s parts? When did I become so prude?

I still love to shop – I just don’t try things on as much! You are right though, I am so not anorexic, or HIP enough to wear half of anything they make anymore!

I’m so with you… However, if I could drop 20 pounds, I might like dressing rooms again
