Day 36--Materialist Wednesday

I was feeling blue this morning.  It sucks to come back from a vacation and not really feel "home".  This isn't my room or my house or my neighborhood, and as I've mentioned previously, I very much like San Diego but it's not where I should be if I pursue a career in writing or publishing.  So.  I knew I needed to change my attitude.  I needed to do something that made me feel more invested here.  So I did as every good American should do: I went shopping, haha.  And Jesus, I shopped.

The bf: "You've been saying 'Jesus' a lot around kinda religious people."
Me: "Well, it's better than saying 'fuck'."

[end tangent]
 
Here's my materialist Wednesday to fight the blues:

Finally bought my blue iPod Shuffle, and I fully plan on getting started with my fitness workout the rest of the summer.

Shopping, a girls best friend :) BTW, Target, we can never get away from spending money there, haha! Love that place :P

I love Target. It's like my Disneyland of fun things to look at and test out. I rarely leave that place empty-handed. Surprisingly, my favorite section is the book aisle. Since they have such limited space it's only the best of the most popular or most read.
