The list spreads like wildfire...

Never fails. The same thing happens every time. Someone posts on the first day of the month "Hoffman's is up!" Usually, I am good. I don't kill myself to get there. I take my time, usually waiting until the second or third day before I wander over to take a look. (snicker inserted here) Whether it is the first or the third day, it's always the same. I scan the list. In my mind I think "Nahhh... nothing this month, for sure!" Then I go back, looking this time specifically for the ones I know might have something I HAVE to have... I click and I look. I make notes, I ALWAYS make notes. Never fails. After that, I go back to the beginning of the list, this time clicking all, even ones I KNOW won't have anything that appeals to me and most of the time (notice I said most) they don't have anything I am dying for - that, is a good thing. Has there ever been a month where there is nothing I want or need or have to have? No, not one that I can recall. There is always ONE at least ONE.

This month? Well, I went over at the first posting. This time I was certain there would be none. Scan, click, back to the top, click, click, click, click. Annnddddd, there it is. One I HAVE to have. ~sigh~ Off to my crazy list... oh well, there is always next month. I have hope. ;o)
