Yet some people think we’re weird for spending as much as we do on Windstones. For example, I have co-workers who wouldn’t blink an eye at spending $300+ for a new cell phone, I-Pod thingy, or other electronic gadget. They see their “investment” as being more practical since you can actually do things with the gadgets, while our pretty stuff just sits there and collects dust.
I’m not keen on Pocket Dragons or other nick-nacks, but I can also understand why some people spend the money for them. I really don’t think we have a place to talk.
My mom keeps telling me that eventually I’ll get tired of dusting my Windstones, and boxing them up to move them, and they’ll just become a bother. I tell here she’s crazy.
She has absolutely no idea at all how much I’ve spent on them though. If she did, she’d have a heart attack, I think. She is a huge believer in being practical, and spending that much money on something you can’t wear, eat, or otherwise use is totally foreign to her.
