To smash things or not, that is the question.
Got a bunch of running around errands done today. Delivered a 6' tall weathervane to a lady in Wayland that had purchased it from my boss at his last show. Boss paid me like $60 to deliver it too. Nice! Lady was very stuck up rich and snobby. Found out when I got there that the nail that is used as a cotter pin type device was missing. Oh great, just what snobby $ Lady wants to hear, right? So, being the recoursful person that I am, I went to my tool bucket. Man I love tools! I happened to have an old hook project in the bottom that was made out of just the right size stock to work, grabbed my cuttey-type-plyers and in a few minutes I had an improvised cotter pin! I was so proud.
Then I was off fabric shopping for a couple of custom garb orders I have reciently acquired. Went to the Fabric Place and got some amazing green heavyweight twill for $2 a yard! There was a very small tear in part of the fabric so I talked the lady into giving it to me at half price. I find the best deals. Then off to Jo-Ann's. I have recently gotten their 40% off cupons e-mailed to me so I printed out like four in hopes that it would work more than once. It did! Score! Nothing better than saving $.
Stopped at Home Goods ( thought it was a Bed Bath and Beyond, but I was wrong so I stopped anyway) to look for a wooden scrub brush as mine is currently doing a lovely job of evading me. So, on the very off chance that this store would have it I went in. Now, don't get me wrong, these types of stores have nice thing, but they are so pretentious. They are designed to make people feel like the things they posses are not good enough and they need to buy new things, nicer things, color-coordinated matching things in trendy designs. Like if you don't buy these things then you are not a good person because your things are not good enbough, that type of atmousphere. As I'm walking down the aisle of all glass things I just had this overwhelming urge to run down the aisle with my arms outspread knocking all the items off the shelf until the hit the floor with a satisifying smashing symphony. Yeah, I'm wierd. Needless to say, I resisted the urge.
Now I have a huge backlog of homework to do. Yay fun!
