Sophie and I both have some kind of problems with our obsessions. Like I mentioned, I make soaps but I also like to buy soaps (other than the fact that I enjoy buying art supplies even though I have more than I would ever be able to finish). I'm currently trying to wash my way through 13 bars of soaps. I was making good progress actually ... from 17 bars [I brought and bought some] to 9 bars and then I went on a holiday ...
I came back and found myself stuck with 13 bars, AGAIN. And I thought I would be finally be rid of all the soaps so I could actually start to make soaps now. Guess not. At least, not until I am down to only 4 bars of soaps (which would take forever to be honest)
My soap problem looks vaguely like this:
This was not the worst . There was a period of time I could no longer fit any more soap on my printer. But yes, Soph's problems looked a little more like this:
Our conversation was really funny in the beginning where Soph asked me if she should get some postcards. When she told me some, I was expecting 2 or 3, or maybe 5. So I played devil's advocate and encouraged her to buy them [especially since she always said that I have a problem since I buy so many paint sets]. Later on at night ....
She told me: "Kelilaaaaa, I am getting 42 postcards in the post next week...."
My reaction: Wtf Soph, you have a bigger problem than I do. How much is that?
Soph: "Oh it only cost £15. BUT HOW AM I GOING TO SORT THROUGH THEM ALL?"
Me: SERIOUSLY SOPH, YOU PROBLEM IS SNOWBALLING.
Soph: "You encouraged me ??????"
Me: I DID NOT ASK YOU TO GET 42 ! I THOUGHT IT WAS 1 ! 1 is okay. 2 is fine, In fact if you got 5, I would have closed my eyes. BUT 42, DO YOU SHIT GOLD SOPH?
Soph: lol kelila. they sell them in lots.
Me: -awkward- Well... I did not know that. How many in a lot then, HOW MANY LOTS DID YOU BUY.
Soph: 2 lots of 20.
Me: Why do you need 2 lots ?! Isn't one enough ?!
Soph: ASDFSFDS ! I got excited OKAY !
Me: Gosh Soph. Next time I try to be devil's advocate, I better do some homework beforehand.
The conversation regarding our problematic obsession didn't stop there.
I wanted to wake up early today to go to Beeston to check out the art shop but obviously, Soph discouraged me because the last thing I need to do, is to enter an art shop and buy every single brush or paint set in view (pfft, like I would do that. ps. I would).
She was like, *POLICE SIRENS* FREEZE. To which I said, excuse me, that coming from you .... She was like, IT'S DIFFERENT. I think we can all conclude that both of us have a severe problem except that. .. her problem is slightly bigger considering the fact that she just messaged me to tell me ...
SHE BOUGHT ANOTHER POSTCARD.
WHY SOPH.
