at eating in... it all began with my shopping addiction. Yes i've been to 3 banana republics in the last 3 days and 3 body shops in the last 3 days. It's quite amazing. It's also quite sad how few places Seattle has to shop. At any rate, returned the jacket that i was feeling a bit guilty about. It was a bit too big for me and looked way too similar to my current jacket.
I don't remember when or where I picked up my shopping habit, but from reading Michelle's blog I'm guessing I got it from wherever she did. I just get the urge to shop, especially when I'm feeling a bit lost. It helps me refocus. I seriously need a cheaper hobby. I think at some point I tried to displace clothes shopping with grocery shopping. Then I realized that my fridge and freezer were full and there was no way I was going to get through all that food. Next came the Target addiction, but seriously you can only stock up on so many things... lightbulbs, batteries, toilet paper, shampoo, etc. Needless to say I think I'm pretty well situated if all the lightbulbs went out in my house... then again maybe not since this house has weird lightbulbs... not your standard 60 watt bulbs. okay so you get the idea... luckily i don't need to shop with people so I don't put anyone else through my shopping expeditions. though my friends do say that I'm really not that bad of a shopper, i can usually decide within 5-10 mins if there's anything I want in a store...
anyways back to food. So i forgot my lunch this morning on the counter, so being lazy I ate in the cafeteria. Then I ended up at uvillage shopping with Andy and we stayed at the bookstore long enough for me to get hungry (~9pm - lunch was at 1pm). My blood sugar was dangerously low - I get really grouchy when I get hungry (Ivy can attest to this). We ended up having dinner at Cedar's which was really good, but I feel like i've failed my quest. Oh well there's always tomorrow.
