Online shopping. It's not for the faint of heart.

Sometimes I just have to walk away from what I'm doing to get some perspective.  In this case, I took a little "virtual online" walk away over here to this new tab on my browser to write to you.  I want some new clothes (and I don't want to buy them from the Wals-Mart), so I'm thinking I'm going to have to get a few pieces online.  I'm always nervous about buying online because my body belongs on the Island of Misfit Toys.  It's randomly put together and I usually have to try things on to make sure that they'll fit my short, stubby legs and my...ahem...well endowed top parts.  Anyway, suffice it to say that since the shopping here is less than stellar and I'm not in the mood to drive an hour and a half to where there are actually real stores, I'm just going to have to buy online and return it if it's not quite right.

Wish me luck.  I'm going to go back to look at my shopping cart and make some hard decisions.

**I know what you're thinking.  What in the hell does the picture have to do with online shopping?  Nothing, actually.  That picture just makes me feel good on the insides and I wanted to share that feeling with you.  You're welcome.
