costume addiction

Gah! Is there a 5 step program or something?..... It's amazing how screwed up your sense of money value gets. I have needed a crown on my tooth but refuse to spend $1200 bucks for it... but i don't bat an eye at buying 2 costumes. It's a sickness, I tell ya. I remember my first high end costume. It was a pharonics I got on sale for 500 and I almost had a cow spending that. Now 500 is a steal...lol. Anyone else have this problem?

Stardancer, my name is Nisima and since I'm not about to give up my costume "addiction" any time soon, I'd get financing for crown work just so I could blissfully order the costumes, all the time congratulating myself on my cleverness! As addictions go in this world, costumes are pretty benign, even when I go a bit overboard I can always resell items. What other addiction in this world actually does make one look and feel better and brings out every bit of glamour that the work-a-day world tends to squelch? And, there is resale value to costume items, but let's get real here, that's not why I buy them! I buy them because they are beautiful, enhance my dancing - even though my solos are now at festivals and staged concerts.

Okay, since I obviously don't want help with my addiction can I still post to this thread?

I don't want any help, unless it's financial. Anyone?

I am still at step number 1- admitting I have a problem.

SamiraShuruk thank you for the thread link. I have stood up and introduced myself. You say you required a costume for membership. ....sure -ill come right over with one (and an empty suitcase to releive you of all of your sinful costumes)
