I need pencils, here I go!
I’m off to Staples, Tally-Ho!
They’ve lots of things I’d like to try,
I’ve got my Debit—watch me buy!
There’s office snacks, so let’s start there,
With mints and chocolate to spare,
Then paper clips and staples, too,
And magnets, push pins—not a few.
Oooh! Organizers, binders, books,
Note pads. Sheet protectors. Look!
Copy paper,
sketchbooks, whee!
And glue sticks, markers. All for me!
And why stop there, there’s so much more,
With scissors, tape for every drawer,
And how ‘bout some expensive pens,
A calculator, camera, lens.
A new computer would be nice,
A printer, too. This one’s half price!
A desk a chair, some shelving, yow!
My office is the Cat’s Meow!
I guess I’m done, my cart is full,
It’s getting hard to push or pull.
A second cart is what I need!
Then I won’t have to stop. Agreed?
Okay, I’m at the checkout now,
They’re adding up my treasures. Wow.
To get them all, I’d need a loan…
I guess I’ll just take pencils home.
Love this so much. You had me at the first two lines.
ReplyDeleteYes! Office supplies are tempting to me as well. Oh the smell of blank pages, the allure of as yet unused pencils and crayons. Nothing compares to this, and you hit the nail (make that thumb tack) on the head!
ReplyDeleteMy brother in law's wife is a office supply junkie, which has come in handy more than once. But I'll have to become one, too, since I intend to stay at home even after we are all called back. It was supposed to be this month; now, who knows.
ReplyDeleteI love office supplies so I have to avoid those stores or I would go bankrupt :)
ReplyDeleteHow i'd love such a spree. The pens i need are about all i can afford!
ReplyDeleteI love stationery stores, I can browse in those for hours.
