Culling the herd 2004-09-22 .
then / after

I have a ton of things I want to get done before next weekend. I want to go with Angie and get my nose re-pierced, I need a new bank card and Shoppers Optimum card (unless I find them tucked away somewhere in the car), I need fresh batteries for my camera, I need to buy some new clothes for work.
Shopping is my downfall. When I have something in mind that I need to get, and I don't find it, I end up spending my money on stuff that can wait. Especially with clothes. For instance, if I don't find the right stuff I want to buy for work, then I'll end up getting stuff that isn't within our dresscode simply because I'm already in the state of mind that I want to buy something new and shiny. You'd think for someone that studied this stuff, I'd know not to think that way. Must stop...must stop!
Besides, I need to not spend a lot of money. I've gotta get myself a new computer. Drew did his best interpretation of an infomercial and sold me on the Mac laptops. He even made Susan take a picture of us shaking hands showing that he "closed the deal". Well, I don't know if he kept the picture...but I must say, I am quite in awe of his knowledge of Macs, he did a very good job of convincing me that a Mac is better than a PC.
Anyways, tomorrow is going to be my 4th day in a row at work, and in the area that I dread most. Then I have to a birthday party on Friday, and maybe a pub thing after that. I dunno if I'll go to the pub though. That might be a more spur of the moment decision. It depends on how I feel after dinner. For all I know, I may not even go to the birthday thing. I am totally up for a night of doing nothing but watching movies.
I also need to buy some bunny ears and a nose for Halloween. I'm going as the March Hare, I'm so excited, I'm going with Susan on the Haunted House tour. I've never been to that before! Fifteen years I've been here and never gone on the tour once! Woo! Maybe I can convince my mom to make me some bunny mitts if I get some fuzzy material...ooh..that would be cool...
Yeah I don't care if I'm too old for this. I've never done it before!
