Stuff I look up

I noticed recently that I have a pinchett for becoming slightly obsessed with one thing that will make or break my entire, trip, weekend, event... For my recent 10 year reunion it was my dress. I HAD to have a dress that wasn't black (b/c everyone wears black) wasn't too long, wasn't too short, looked good around my arm fat...(what I like to call chicken livers) and then once I finally found said dress It wasn't the right length.. I had everything else I needed except the length part.. the dress was long but cute long. My husband said "please don't cut it off, it is great long, looks like a girl from the 50's." So I couldn't take it to get it hemmed. So I did what any compulsive girl would do and I painstakingly installed a bubble hem that could be removed. I found the perfect shoes and the night was a blast... reunion compulsive issues... solved.

Then I went to the razorback game with a friend. I couldn't go in just any HOGS T-shirt. I had to have one that was really cute. One that would be the outfit b/c I knew I would wear jeans and tennis shoes. So I shopped around all over town (Conway, not Fayetteville; where I could have found 50 cute hog shirts in a 10 mile radius) After shopping at two Wal-Marts, Target, a waisted trip to Kohls, and a few other small places where I thought I might get lucky... I hit the mother load at Hibbett Sports. My shirt was rockin'. Razorback tailgating compulsive issues...solved.

Now I need a backpack... More of a day pack really to take to New Orleans and Biloxi so that I don't have to carry a purse. I want something big enough to carry all of my stuff (jacket, phone, wallet, make-up, water, and anything I buy along the road. Plus all of my husbands junk) so I'm struggling between full size or a smaller backpack. The smaller ones have some positive things about them. They aren't very large, heavy, or in the way. They don't make you look like a theif when you trapse through stores looking around. BUT they also keep you from carrying a small bag AND a bunch of crap along with it in your arms. So that is my current compulsive issue... Any suggestions?
