Either I'm not as observant as you, or my wife tends to buy the same color
clothes all the time.
Prolly the former.
I once made the mistake of looking at a receipt from a recent "acquisition
excursion" she made to Nordstroms.
JUMPED-UP JESUS HAROLD FUCKING CHRIST ON A POGO STICK!!!!!!!!!!!
That was the day I learned how much those "totally fab" purses of hers cost.
In gamer terms, I could've bought the soon-to-be-released SM company box AND
a Baneblade. And then had lunch. And bought a book at Borders or Barnes and
Noble. ISYN.
But they aren't her version of "toys", so sir!! They are necessities!
Is there no justice in the world? :)
