Office Depot

>> Sunday, November 4, 2007

I have to confess a secret. Actually, this is not too much of a secret to anyone who knows me. But I will pretend it is a secret nonetheless.

I

love

Office Depot!

No, really. There is no store that I enjoy more. From the shiny pens, to the colored paper, to the Post-it notepads, to the dry erase markers. From the desks, to the hole punchers, to the printers, to the calenders. Did I mention the shiny pens? I love me some medium point pens. And the mechanical pencils. What joy! Who knew that there could be demand for so many varieties of so many very scrumptious writing utensils?

I was so lucky to get to go there this afternoon. Our three-hole punch broke the other day, so we needed a new one. Not only did we go away with a new one, but we got new pens AND a pack of colored printer paper! And I think we are getting a new desk too!

I think I could live in an office supply store for the rest of my life. They have some food-like items and a bathroom, not to mention a variety of products to entertain me for the REST OF MY LIFE!

May my dreams tonight find me in a sea of note cards and pastel colored paper, covered in a warm blanket of Bic ReAction pens and Xtend 0.7mm mechanical pencils sewn together with invisible tape and cleaned with Method products. Amen.

Wow, I am the exact same way. Office Depot. Staples. Office Max. Even the office-supply aisle of Wal-mart gets me excited. Mmmmm, new pens! (I may have to run to Staples now...)

Staples doesn't actually exist out here! Not in Las Vegas anyway. Funny since it is the only office supply store back home -- unless things have changed, but I doubt it.

I love all office supply stores/sections. I find that Office Depot edges out Office Max slightly because they have more awesome coupons and deals, and that means more random things I can justify spending money on. But I would spend time in any of them, of course! :]
