Day 42: Ignoring the urge...


Where does it come from?? This need to stop and shop? I know I've mentioned my addiction before, but sometimes it just wells up from deep within and is almost overpowering. I'm driving home from work today and I just have this overwhelming desire to stop at The Christmas Tree Shoppe. I'm not looking for anything specific, hell, I don't even have any money to spend. All I know is want to spend an hour or so milling around the aisles of stuff. It was all I could do to not get off at the exit. Why even tease myself with things I want but can't really buy? I don't know, but I could actually feel the tingle I get when I get the chance to browse, and it almost felt like it would calm or relax me. I really can't explain where the urge comes from...why can't I get the same urge with exercise?? Whatever it is, I'm going to have to feed the addiction soon. I'm starting to twitch.
