Unsuccessful trip

tarotgalNot such a great trip to Walmart... got Pirates of the Caribbean *jumps up and down happily* but couldn't find any good socks... and they were out of boyfriend's cat's cat treats... and I completely forgot trash bags- DOH!- and they didn't have any croissants, either. So, eh, I'll just have to go again tomorrow.
They also didn't have Highlander, Season 3 on DVD! *pout* I was hoping for it! I thought it came out at the end of November, but maybe I'm wrong. Ah well, I shall continue to look.
My parents' dog ate my shoes over break, so I bought new ones last Friday (ug... I HATED having to shop on that Friday... commercialism suckith much. So much for it being a no-shop day for me, sorry!) and they're brown, so I have to go buy dark socks now to match. I own, like, 3 pairs of dark socks. But Walmart's sock selection wasn't too good.
Anyhoo, I also bought 'Rose Red' because I've had a craving to watch it (it's, like, 4.5 hours long) but I only have it taped off TV and I'm always in my bedroom on the computer. So now I can watch it on DVD and fill my urge for horrible but beautiful Steven King movies. I don't like his horror stuff... I like his stories when they're character-driven. And this has a fantastic bunch of characters, and BEAUTIFUL sets. Not so beautiful that I'd fall in love with the house... but beautiful all the same.
I've got a meeting in 7 hours... and I'm dead tired... but have barely begun working on thesis *sigh* The drive home today was SO long. Stop-and-go traffic for a long while thanks to construction. And I'm starving... haven't had breakfast, lunch, or dinner today, just a few granola bars and an orange. I go eat and sleep now, I think. You know it's sad when you buy a "two week supply of milk" and it's so small that the check out lady asks if you want to keep it out to drink on the car ride home. You also know it's sad when half the night staff at Walmart recognize you and say hi.
