All I ever buy on Thursdays is lunch, anyway, and I didn't today. Whee.

i bought lunch for a homeless guy that hangs out in front of the gym i go to.
does that count for or against me?

It's a self-scoring system.

I didn't spend a dime today but it didn't seem to bother the shrub one bit.

Why would a homeless guy hang out in front of a gym? If I were homeless, I'd hang out in front of Dunkin' Donuts or Wendy's or something.
Guess it worked out for him though.

I bought a cup of coffee.
When I returned home I pulled the lock assmebly out of my dead bolt when I tried to unlock the damn door. Anyway, it ended up being an $85 cup of coffee, so I think Gee-Dub would be pleased with me today.

Gee-Dub...I love it.
I've been in the house all day, but I am so curious about how the stores are doing. Have any of you been in the stores today? Briana, I know you have, was it any different from any other day? A little slower?

Despite my grand plans to purchase large amounts of ammo ... Since I am on day shift all freakin' month, my schedule and plans are quite disrupted.

I had to settle for buying lunch.

But I did engage in commerce, dammit.

Brianna - in phoenix, everyplace is a good place for a bum.

Actually, I was mighty impressed! Nary a soul except for me and the salesguy...and this is a big store (NOT Wal-mart, though) and I got right in and out. Seems even more important when you know that fairly good snow storm hit us today which usually sends EVERYONE out for some last minute thing or other.

I didn't spend any money today, but I didn't mean for that to happen. I've been laid up all week, so I haven't left the apartment much. And I was going to go to the grocery store, but decided against it. Then I was going to order takeout, and decided against that too. It was a complete accident...really.

Trilby · 01-20-2005, 10:57 PM

Is it the percocets doing this awful thing to you, Syc?

elSicomoro · 01-20-2005, 11:04 PM

That might have been a factor...I came out of that haze around 9:30.

did you finally go ahead and have your testicles removed, or have you injured yourself in some way that makes you require a cane?

Umm, does anyone know how to get green paint off one's ass?
