ANM: I think about this sometimes, kind of, but I love the way you've expressed it. I'm not a "serial upgrader," but I take the aesthetics of my environment very seriously, probably too seriously. I always have a vision of the "perfect" whatever in my head, and that's what I need to find. Once I have it, I am good and don't want to change things with the season, or changing fashions or anything. It's definitely not conducive to frugality or minimalism.
