Shopping Therapy

The day after I got served with divorce papers, I checked out a book from the library: How to Shop for a Husband.  Hmmmm, man- hunting analogies of shopping fun: pricey, high-end stores, bargain bins and clearance racks.  I figured it would serve as kind of a funny-ha-ha self-help therapy or something.  I don’t know; it’s my thing.  (Just go with it.) 

As it turns out, the book has some interesting concepts.  For example, you should shop for a man like you would shop for a dress.  You want one that fits right, is supportive and classic, and suits your style.  Hmmm.  Why didn’t I think of that?  I have always been more worried about “Am I good enough for you?”  than even bothering to ask the question in reverse. 

This has led to some regretful “purchases.” 

Time to shop at a new store, or better yet, just put shopping on hold for a lllloooonnnnnggggg  while.
