I had successfully lived for 5 months in Italy with only items I could fit into a back pack and one suitcase. The "backpacking" experience of my traveling will certainly always stay with me. But I even noticed how when I would walk into the local supermercator for toothpaste... I had only two options. TWO. That was all. So me being match brained... walked away thinking, "I have a 50% chance I chose the best one" kind of mindset. I didn't have to stand there, debating on whether to get a gel or paste; micro scrubby beady things or none; swirled or not swirled; peppermint, spearmint, sweet mint, cinnamon, bubblegum, or plain; whitening, anti-cavity, fresh breath, or sensitive....<br /><br />You get the point. I was happy with only having to choose one from the two. But must admit, I was taken aback that there weren't 9234875 to choose from.<br /><br />kI'm a tree.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10476599192991097587noreply@blogger.com
