A Shopping Day, yay
Jun. 30th, 2013 10:31 pmSo, I had a lovely shopping day Saturday. And I proved to myself that I can certainly haul around up to fifteen pounds of bagged cat litter, get in a vehicle, and get home, if I had no one to drive me to a store. While Adam, Charlotte and I were at PetSmart, I bought a bag of "Arm&Hammer Essentials Natural Clumping Litter", which made the claim that due to pine and baking soda, the litter did the work of thirty pounds at half the weight. I imagined that if it worked, it would be the easiest litter to get by myself when taking a bus (Also, previous Arm&Hammer brand litters had worked very well and I had heard lovely reviews for this one).
Adam and Charlotte had gone to Home Depot, so while waiting for them, I carried the bag around for a few minutes, testing it on my shoulders, in my arms, by each hand, etc. Then I found canned food and treats and got a cart, and by that time I found Adam and Charlotte in the fish section, getting a new fish tank stand.
Previously we had been at Wal-Mart, where I bought a few needed toiletries and socks for half the price at a CVS, Adam got all his tires replaced, and we got a few new things for the new downstairs. Charlotte and I also found paint for my work room. We had brought along my little Fluttershy toy, explaining to the highly amused lady that we wanted to try and color match the yellow body of the My Little Pony. The color matching machine couldn't work with the toy since the toy kept casting a shadow at all angles, and the computer didn't get the yellow properly, so we just physically matched Fluttershy against a bunch of swatches and came away with Canary Song.
(Which got me realizing that I really needed to tell people: Just because I love the TV show doesn't mean I want to see or hear about everything possibly related. This realization came after Adam showed me a photo of a handmade cloth doll of a "Ghost Pony" that was one of the freakiest, creepiest, most nightmarish things I have ever seen. People have been sending me erotica art, random pictures, and bizarre fanfiction. Don't do that. Please don't send me Pony porn. For the love of Luna, please don't do that. At least ask me first. Same with TMNT, Futurama, Simpsons, Adventure Time, and pretty much everything I've mentioned that I like. Sometimes I just enjoy something simply to enjoy it - although I am proud to own Pony and Ninja Turtle clothing, toys, etc. As for Futurama and others, I just watch and quote, that's all, fini.)
Also, my neck is ridiculously stiff and painful. My head is throbbing and might at some point become a migraine. Stupid head.
Also, now the fish tank is back downstairs. My work room feels more open and quiet. Although I might miss falling asleep to the humming and bubbling of the filters.
