not cheap

i think i have poison ivy from this weekend's activities.
after classes last night, i came home and passed out - with my ballet slippers on. i woke up this morning and my ankle was itching. felt a bump. scratched at it. thought maybe a bug bit me. and then i got into the shower and thought - SHIT. i probably have poison ivy and i've been scratching at it. now its going to spread god knows where! SHIT.

i brought an anti-itch cream with me to work, but have no rubbing alcohol at home for later, but really, i'm not itchy unless i think "i should be itchy", so i went to the Atlantic Station target for supplies.

i can never escape target with at least 2 more items that i did not intend to buy.

i walked out nearly $100 later with rubbing alcohol, a Botkier for Target purse (yes, its a hot, cheap, mess, but I actually really like it), a t-shirt, some shorts, some hair things, tampons.... apparently, money grows on trees. I then went to the Pizza Hut express and bought a personal pan pizza combo. i must be stopped. way too many carbs. i know better.

while i was sitting, i was people watching and lots of moms were buying school supplies. it made me think of my mom. i remember my mom looking for the best deals on filler paper. Paper! She would die if she knew how much I just spend on stuff i don't need. i don't know why i didn't learn better from her.
