I've never believed that shopping could actually cure the sense of blue. But this morning we headed off - the missus and I - downtown to knock of a few things off the to-do list. I had a few practical items that turned into pure fashion statements and a great sense of relief and accomplishment. I'm still puzzled by how I feel about this. It wasn't anything expensive or crazy, just two t-shirts, a pullover and a pair of corduroy jeans. But all of the items were very distinct, had a great fit and felt original.
Now I suddenly feel new and energized. This is something I've looked for in new experiences and learnings in the past, not in clothes. Now I just need to get a haircut and shave of 10 pounds and then I'm happening. Again. Go Dog!
PS. I did have a pre-printed list with sizes, stores and preferred brands which created a great feeling of security. What can I say, I'm a numbers guy and demand logic and consistency.
