Seriously, it's why I took a hiatus from this site for a few months... it sucks up all your time and money. It's like a damn crack addiction. Pretty soon you're sucking dick for Chaps RL. That's when you know you hit bottom.

I was also on the campaign trail and didn't need to wear anything nicer than t-shirts and jeans very often.

You're done, you think you have everything you need... and then you see a sale, and man, it's just a great price, and well, it's just one coat, but wait, there's a pair of pants, oh and if you get those pants well, you just need a new jacket, and it's all on sale...

... or you get invited to a special event. So special in fact that nothing you have in your closet will do. So, you head to the one place you know you'll find the right advice and maybe even a great deal in the FS threads.

You only need to do this one thing, but then you start reading some posts. Oh the snark! You respond, than a reply, you have to respond back...

... oooh, socks for $10!

Frankly, I am in the final part of the same project - 3 suits to go - then I can spend money on a good pair of shoes - EG or Vass, or some other goodies!
Congrats!
