Lull at Work- buying Obi & hatching stuff
May. 27th, 2005 02:58 pmI actually have a few moments to check e-mail at work. Imagine that! My boss is taking a nap and I worked too quickly this morning and already got all the big stuff done. Yayness.
Went on a hunting spree yesterday afternoon, last night around 2am, and this morning before work in an attempt at buying manilla mailing envelopes and plain 2-pocket folders. I went to Shoppers (grocery store), 2 Safeways (grocery store), Target, Staples, Office Max, CVS, 3 Giant Foods (grocery store) and FINALLY found one box of them at the FOURTH Giant this morning. I needed 3 but I bought 20. Just in case. I've had trouble finding them in the past, so better safe than sorry. Might as well buy a year's supply! None of the stores had manilla envelopes except for Staples, Office Max, and Walmart (which I finally bought them as they were cheapest there)
Giant also had all their school supplies 50% off, which is like Heaven for me! *drools at the yummy notebooks and pens and tape and things*
So I bought 3 packs of my favorites pens as well.
At Walmart I bought some mechanical pencils which should make working out math problems much easier for me. And I bought an Obi-Wan figure.
I saw it at Giant on Sunday but didn't buy it and have regretted it since. They're all sold out everywhere now, but I managed to find four of them at Walmart- the little Obi-Wan action figure with "Slashing Action". I'm sorry, but how could I resist Slashing Obi-Wan? *giggle* Definitely worth $5.50 just for the packaging.
I resisted the temptation to buy Bail and slash them together, since I'll probably keep Obi in his packaging.
Thanks for the fb on the hatching situation thus far. I appreciate all of it muchly.
Also I have a stupid question- I've read the sneezefic list description a few times through now and I know it's for *mostly* male sneezes in fics, but I have a female sneezing plot bunny I submitted to the hatching because I can't write it myself and would love to see it written about. Is that appropriate to do considering the hatchings are filtered into and based in the sneezefic list? I wasn't sure if it meant NO female sneezing or just mainly male. So... yes... thoughts/emplanation? Should I remove the bunny just in case?
