The Highs and Lows of Post Office Shopping

[lathany]

I went to the Post Office and found a total of zero advent calendars. However, they were forgiven when I found out that they stocked a green velvet scrunchie. I then continued my shopping trip around Feltham and finished off the twins Christmas present buying and got myself some warm, cheap pyjamas (with glitter on the stars).

I think I'm going to have to admit defeat and buy a chocolate calendar from Tesco and put twenty-four ridges into an ordinary candle. At least Tesco still have both.

I'm starting to worry about you and your scrunchie habit. How many of these questions do you answer 'yes' to?

Do you lose time from work due to your scrunchie buying?

Do you buy scrunchies because you are shy with other people?
Is scrunchie buying affecting your reputation?
Have you ever felt remorse after buying a scrunchie?
Have you gotten into financial dificulties as a result of your scrunchie buying?
Do you turn to lower companions and an inferior environment when buying scrunchies?
Does your scrunchie buying make you careless of your family's welfare?
Has your ambition decreased since buying scrunchies?
Do you crave a scrunchie at a definite time daily?
Do you want a scrunchie the next morning?
Does buying scrunchies cause you to have difficulty in sleeping?
Has your efficiency decreased since buying scrunchies?
Is scrunchie buying jeopardizing your job or business?
Do you buy scrunchies to escape from worries or troubles?
Do you buy scrunchies alone?

Has your physician ever treated you for scrunchie buying?
Do you buy scrunchies to build up your self-confidence?

No, no, no, possibly (after all - why are you asking ?), no, no, no, no, no, yes (about the time I need to tie back my hair), yes (that's when I use one), no, no, no, no, yes (always), no, no, no and no.

Hmm, you're probably OK then. But be careful - it's very easy to slip from being someone who buys the occasional scrunchie into an addict ;-)
