So Dad took me shopping tonight, since I was running low on food, and I was out of kitty litter. Made a run to Barnes and Noble, where I ended up getting a number of books, including Animal Farm and the first three books of the John Carter of Mars series in one volume (which was a bargain book). We ended up heading to Wal-Mart to buy kitty litter ( Read more... )

So Mom ended up taking me shopping on Sunday. She wanted to do some shopping of her own, but she forgot her checkbook, so she was somewhat limited in that regard. I hit Barnes and Noble first and got six new books -- two books on songwriting, a D&D Essentials book covering the Feywild, the Pathfinder Bestiary, the second installment of the D&D ( Read more... )

...and hopefully it won't fucking rain like last year.

Quick recap of what's gone down:

• Went shopping with Dad again. We forewent Barnes and Noble this time, and we ended up getting enough food and other stuff to last me a while.
• Mom and I did some much-needed cleaning work at my place in preparation for inspections. As it turns out, they only ( Read more... )

So Dad picked me up to go grocery shopping. Dad wanted to find some boots and do some shopping of his own, and I wanted to see what new books were available for D&D 4E at Barnes and Noble. Dad gave me a half-hour in the store, and I bought four new books: Psionic Power, which expands on the options available to Ardents, Battleminds, Monks and ( Read more... )

So Mom came by to take me shopping again this weekend. She said she wanted to get in and out of there as quickly as possible, but I still managed to convince her to drop me off at Barnes and Noble for a half hour, since there was a gas heater she wanted to look at in Farm and Fleet and Sears for some property that she owned near her place. At least ( Read more... )

So Mom took me shopping again today. I hadn't been to La Crosse in a while, and hadn't been to Barnes and Noble since a few months ago, as I was trying to keep my spending under control since that last big overdraft. On the way there, we went over a survey that was sent to me from the Census Bureau, which covered such shit as what kind of building ( Read more... )

So another birthday has rolled around, and I am 29 years old now ( Read more... )

Went shopping with the folks again. About the only thing I got other than groceries was a package of toilet paper that I saw on display as I was just getting started (since I was running out of ammunition at home). Spent close to 200 bucks and I didn't go to Barnes and Noble like that other time I was in town, so I didn't have to worry about ( Read more... )

So Mom took me shopping again this weekend. Mom's first stop was Farm and Fleet, which she said needed to be done first due to it only being possible to get there going into Onalaska (and Mom had plenty to say about the stupidity of that particular choice of route design). She went to get some kind of metal hitch thing for Dad, but I walked away ( Read more... )

So Mom visited me the other day. We had a nice chat and I brought up the fact that I was running out of checks. Turns out that the last time she ordered some new checks the bank fucked up the order and so it didn't get through. Nice. We went shopping yesterday on account of I was running out of food and because I only had a few checks left, we had ( Read more... )
