Shopping Spree? Why?

Daily writing prompt
Where would you go on a shopping spree?

I would go nowhere. I don’t get what shopping means. I go to buy, and I leave. I never understood walking around looking at things. If there is something I need or want, I go get it and go home. I can’t see wasting endless hours looking in windows or walking through stores just to pull a shirt or a pair of pants off the rack and look at them. Why should I do that? It seems like a time waster when I can just get what I planned to buy with the money I have, then go get lunch or dinner. I would rather sit at home watching ants carry away a bread crumb than walk around a mall as an activity.

I spent 40 years in FinTech before retiring to Rio de Janeiro to trade software releases for a front-row seat to the beautiful absurdity of life in Brazil. This blog is my digital porch, a place for unpolished commentary on book reviews, daily gripes, and the random thoughts of a guy who finally has the time to pay attention. I’m an observant realist with a deep appreciation for history, a good quote, and the perspective that only comes after the career ends. I write to stay sharp, to stay honest, and to keep the conversation going. I love my Patriots and Bruins, a life long fan in bad times and good. They have been quite good for a long time now! I love spending time with my wife the best times are just doing nothing; watching tv, talking or just sitting at the beach together for a few hours. Our spot is pier 60 in Clearwater. I love the time I have with my kids when I can, they are all pretty busy. Seinfeld is about the best comedy ever. You will see me frequently comment on the show and why my blog is about nothing.
