Thursday August 28, 2008

Best Part of the Day-
I found myself with a lil bit o' free time after working in the wee morn, yet before an afternoon meeting (Thursdays are supposed to be my free day afterall...).  I went to the crazily popular mall just a mile from work.  I took my sassy eye glasses in for the free annual adjustment (they literally fall off of my face since I stupidly let Liam use them as a play toy--sometimes it's just easier to let him play with the object of his desire).  I have never taken up any of the bizillion offers of "free" services with crap that I buy: camera lens cleaning, frame adjustments, vacuum filter changing, etc.  Today I did it.  I felt like a highly organized consumer.  It felt good.  And I look way less mentally ill with glasses that are not crooked on my face 100% of the time.
Also I bought 2 super cute (sweat shop labor, I am certain) shirts for $2.99 each.   Yeah for me, and I justify at that price, the sweat shop laborers were paid an almost fair wage--yeah for them?

Worst Part of the Day-
I rarely go to the mall, but when I do I enjoy the food court thang.  I often find myself at Sbarro Pizza as I must emotionally link my mall experiences with the scrumptious Sbarro.  Today I was a dissatisfied Sbarro customer.  The pizza dough was simultaneously doughy and rock hard.  It sucked.  I spent more on the pizza, bread stick & drink combo than I did on my 2 super cute shirts.  Boo.
