Starve a Cold, Feed a Fever...

...Shop through Sadness.

Bombs are going off in the streets.
Children are being injured.
Mindless violence.
Conspiracy theories.
Loss of life and limbs

What's a girl to do?

I shopped online.

Wedding gifts for Vincent and Terrence.  Yes - a gay wedding - take that terrorists.
Mother's Day gift for my mother
Birthday gift for my mother
Printer cartridges that I have needed for weeks

All purchases were necessary
All purchases were on my long term to-do list

Searching for the perfect items distracted me from the news coverage
If only for a moment
