ABSTRACT
April sat on her bed, admiring her purchases. There were bags everywhere. She felt an unbelievable emotional high as she started sorting through the sacks. The bags were mostly filled with clothes, but she had also snuck in some matching shoes and jewelry as well. There was nothing in the world as stimulating as an after-holiday sale, unless of course, it was great sex or a good pharm party or . . . April laughed as she realized there were a number of things she could get REALLY excited about! April wished she could share all this with her mom but it was two a.m. and her mom never really appreciated her purchases anyway. In fact, her mom typically got very upset when April went shopping. She never understood how important it was for April to have a good variety of clothing and accessories so she would be ready for whatever excitement might come her way. Oh well, April would have to be excited on her own. She knew she’d be up the rest of the night. Sleep was always a stranger after sales events.
