Addicted - anyone have this problem? -

Out with the missus last night on a bit of a bender and jokingly I told her that I was going to take some of her paycheque and buy some new kicks today.
She scowled at me and said that I'd already bought 4 pairs this week.
I didn't remember buying 3 of those pairs.
Do I need to go to rehab?

Addicted?
Of course!
It became painfully obvious last night when I took my son to see the Movie "Semi Pro"...
There are a couple shots where it showed the players shoes and they were wearing some classic White with Blue Striped Pro-models. I nudged my son and whispered, "Check out the kicks".
My son said back, "Oh God, get over it Dad! You did the same thing on the McDonalds Dancing kid commercial.... lame!"
My KID thinks I'm pathetic.... but he doesn't have a damn problem with wearing a pair when he wants....

Nah, go for it fella! This week i have bought 1 pair, secured a deal with a SSDB member for sumthing sweet!!! and bargained with another ebayer for sumthing else and the weekend isnt here yet. got all day online Saturday and a trip to the outlet to deal with yet.

I'm another one of you who looks at characters on TV for superstars (Chris from Ashes to Ashes wearing a pair of plain white/blue iirc). (Un?)Fortunately I don't have the income to become a full-on addict - especially with my income being cut in half within the next few months)

I now buy trainers instead of cd's..I'm in the process of trying to buy a pair of footpatrols(giving up soon),negotiating on a pair of I love London and I Love NYC from same seller,and maybe a pair of perfed.I also nearly ordered a pair of decade low(holiday..Jamaica edition)from Size for £39.99,not to mention the pair of underworlds which I've been in contact with the seller for over 2 weeks.Of course I haven't actually got any of these yet..but here's hoping.I'm not addicted,just enthusiastic

I'm with you there, although my missus thinks she comes a lowly second to my passion for all things trefoil!
(I daren't tell her she's third after my addiction to my mac & the internet!!)
