My Klepto Problem!!

Recently one of the doctors I work with keeps pointing out I am a klepto!! He says it jokingly because I constantly am picking up after him and grabbing his pens. We always just laughed about it until now!!!! Yesterday I ran out to do a little shopping at Old Navy and was trying on some clothes and decided I loved a certain shirt but it wasn't exactly the size i wanted. I went out to see if they had it in my size and they didn't. I looked over what I wanted to purchase and headed up to the register. As I proceeded to check out the lady asked if I found everything okay. I told her i did. Then she commented on some of the tanks I was buying and how cute they were. I told her there was a black one I really wanted and loved but not in my size. She continued to tell me she would call around and find it in my size and I told her not to worry about it. After I was done and paid, I went out to the car. As I was driving away I glanced down and realized i was WEARING the very shirt we were talking about. I stopped the car and started freaking out!! I had just had an entire conversation with the lady about this very shirt and now I am guiltily wearing it!! I knew i needed to return it but in the moment of panic I couldn't think what to do. I just started laughing. I called fro and he was no help, he just told me to do what i thought was right. I didn't know what was right. I couldn't imagine walking back into the store carrying the shirt. Luckily I had my shade shirt underneath so i stilll had a shirt on, but I knew it could be really embarrassing and make me look even worse because I spent all that time talking about the very shirt I stole!! I did the only thing I could think of......... I called my "Pure" sister brittany and told her the situation!! After some laughter and more laughter she told me i had to take it back. I kept thinking i should just throw it away when i got home it would be easier than the embarrasment. She told me to just walk it back into the store and it would be fine. I made her stay on the phone with me as i walked into the store so I would look pre-occupied so no one would approach me. As I walked in I tried not to make any eye contact with anyone, but there were many people around that I am sure I looked really weird bringing a shirt BACK into the store and laying it down and flying out of the store!! I don't know why it was so embarrassing but I felt totally dumb because it just so happened to be the shirt I was talking about and it just looked bad!! I am so glad I have people to help me out when my mind is going crazy and I am crazy and I do so many things that just keep us all laughing!! Thanks Britto for all the constant sound advice you always send my way!! your the best!!

I once did the same thing AT OLD NAVY with a WHITE tank. I totally left wearing it and had to take it back and say I hadn't paid for it. Totally embarrassing. I blame Mommy brain.
