Who Wants to Go Shopping?

I've decided to become a personal shopper. Forget this animation nonsense; picking out outfits for other people is where it's at.

Today, while I was at the river with some friends, Leigh asked me to go and help her shop for clothes. My initial thought was, "Definitely not. I am not a platonic straight friend or your gay bff, and I don't want you seeing me as such". However, I eventually decided it might be fun, so I went along. After all, picking out outfits for her meant she'd have to try them on for me.

Personal motives aside, the experience was actually a lot of fun. I've always joked around that I wish I could dress some people, and this was finally my chance. By the time we were done, I helped her pick out some great clothes that made sure she'd look amazing. Having a beautiful woman try on clothes for you isn't the worst thing in the world.

This made me think: if I could help one person, why not others? There are plenty of people out there that have no idea how to dress, and it is my job to make this world a prettier place, one person at a time.

So, anybody need a personal shopper?
