Pier 1 Craze
Last evening, I went into Pier 1 Imports, and I lost my mind. I went to Pier 1 with the intentions of buying some picture frames & a mirror. The narcissist in me wants to awaken daily to a picture of myself on the ceiling. Plus, I could use another mirror in my home. I can't get enough of looking at myself. Anyway...I entered the store on a mission. I failed my mission.
You see, there was a 50-75% off sale going on in Pier 1. I was like a kid in the candy store. Everything I saw, I wanted. And everthing I wanted, I bought. I bought an ottoman. I love getting pedicures, so this stool is fabulous. I can just imagine getting a pedicure with my feet resting on it. It will fit so well in my new apartment.
While in Pier 1, the control freak in me took over and I bought a director's chair. Don't ask me what I plan to do with the chair, but I just had to have it. Plus, it was on sale. Thanks to Adam, film making has peaked my interest. He & I have already discussed a script for a short film...so who knows. Maybe that chair will come in handy soon.
I picked up a beautiful body cushion. It has a Persian feel to it. It looks as if a queen would've used it to rest on. How befitting for me. I bought some lanterns & a few decorative photo holders. I was tempted to buy this glass head to put my uncle's crematory ashes, but I figured that might creep some people out (including myself).
I realized that I was pushing the limits of my spending, so I had to leave the store. I didn't want to, but I had to. Pier 1 is a really cool store. I'm going to avoid the desire to go back into the store for my wallet's sake.
Aww man! I just remembered that I didn't buy my mirror that I went for. I think I may have to go back. I really do need my mirror...
