500 pages of horse stuff!! Heaven :P
Yay, shopping as therapy is good. Wanna know why? Because, although I hate -shopping- as a sport, shopping as therapy lets you learn who you are :P Fear the logic, wherever it may be.
What I did today wasn't really shopping -- it was getting. I have a pre-set list of things that I can always use, therefore I run down this pre-set list (which lives in my head) and see what sorts of deals are on.
Stepped into FYE... looking for Doctor Who stuff, as I'm in the mood for it. Nothing seeing. Found 24 for $30, but I always buy two things from FYE at any given moment, so did not get it, as nothing else interested me.
Stepped into Walden's Bookstore, and the first thing I saw was The Ultimate Book of the Horse and Rider -- on sale. $10. Awesome picture references for breeds. Absolute heaven, I swear. I could have picked up cook books (japanese cuisine, as mum has stuff -- or microwave stuff, but the book was full of food I'd never heard of, much less would want to eat... it stayed there, heh) but I didn't.
Walked around a bit, sat down in the middle of the mall near the fountain and watched that for a little while... watched people mill about.
Went to Books.A.Million... walked directly to the manga... there were two people sitting in the floor on one end of the aisle, heh. They seemed really nice, started talking to me instantly, as if we knew each other (the girl actually asked if she knew me from somewhere, oddly enough oO;; )... Found what I had been thinking about looking for! Griffon and Sabine books :3 But... the set didn't have a price on it and the single books were almost $20 each >>; I wasn't gonna pay $60 for three itty bitty books, thanks >>;;; Didn't get anything from there...
For once, I walked out of a book store empty handed! lol
Went to Wal*Mart and picked up three skeins of yarn, three crochet needles (G/6, H/8, I/9) and black cross-stitch fabric.
...and a bottle of Vanilla Coke to go home with.
20 minutes from home, I stopped by the Tastee Hut and got a chocolate milkshake :P Best $2 I spent the entire day, heh ^^
Yes, I'm happy, now.
