Josie is simply somebody who needs more serotonin and endorphins and she finds it by purchasing things. Maybe it's the trauma of losing a parent as a child and replacing it with material things, but staying for a little while without focusing on objects, or "pampering" stuff is impossible. She gets a pamper way too much, at home is fine but going to do a facial all the damn time and then forcing yourself almost to purchase something so you go look at Hermès or Chloé and then you get so happy, you show it, you have sparkles in your eyes, you try to justify the purchase, cost per bags cost per wear, so timeless, it's a good price consdering blah blah blah. And then the novelty wears off, Charlie doesnt bring serotonin, the dogs just relaxes me, the house is a distraction, I avoid myself and I live in a bubble, I want pleasure and happiness again so I am going to Bicester Village to look for a new bag, a leather bag, a timeless piece it's okay to buy it. Oh I just looked at leather boots by Chloé, i couldn't resist myself. It's Halloween my darlings so I thought I needed new Creuset pans to make...uh.....a lot of meals I've seen online...... [struggles to justify the purchase]. It's a rollercoaster. No I don't think it's normal, we all purchase on a daily basis some groceries, and I can guarantee all of you here has given something to someone else, a meal, donations, volonteering, giving away things, etc. Josie never speaks about anything other than herself, her house, her things. Things, just things. She seeks new things, a new car, a new whatever because she lives in the outside world, and probably never even looks inside herself or tries to understand how other people live in this world. Surrounded by Beige Blonde girls who record themselves for a living too, countless Elemis facial creams in her supposed vintage cupboard in her 3th bathroom of her big house, she looks out the window she stalks the neigbors perhaps because unconsciously she wonders how other people live outside this Beige Bubble world she has created to avoid reality, to avoid herself
