Wow, I'm updating up a storm here! After a great quite night yesterday I went on a shopping purge today. I don't know why I do it. I spent my lunch hour at the dreaded Target and ended up hobbling to the check out lanes. A full basket and a comforter slung over my back made it really hard to walk! I seem to have came to the conclusion quite some time ago that shopping makes me happy. I know it's such a damn typical girl thing to say. Yet I actually hate shopping. I loathe crowds and don't even get me started on looking for god damn shoes! I tend to get really happy about shopping for shit that I actually need. Yes I get a buzz off of it. Today I was more pumped over cleaning products being on sale then the free lunch I got from work. I must be getting old! My sad existence was brought to a happy medium by cleaning products... I think that's the first time I've actually admitted it.
After I got back from my shopping extravaganza, a girl from work asked me to take a day off. I was kind of offended at first! I mean wouldn't you be! I kind of took offense in the first place because I dislike her. Then she told me she really needed the overtime and gave me the sad story of broke up with boyfriend, blah blah blah. This is the first time I've actually been asked by her to take time off. Actually I think it's the first time ever I've had a coworker ask me to take a day off. So I took friday off, even though things are tight for me too. At least I have paid time off!
I am going to see Choke on Thursday night. Which is something I've been looking forward to. I am really a big fan of Chuck's work. Choke was probably my favorite book out of all that I've read. Yes I do have my gripes about him as most people do. He's so great at sucking you into the story, yet I always feel his endings are far too rushed to tie ends together. This isn't always a bad thing but to me it is. Usually after reading his books I'm just left with that 'what the hell' kind of feeling.
I'm actually excited that I don't have work on friday, so I'm hoping the rest of my week goes quick! I hope you all have a quick week as well! Yes I'm pulling a Chuck and ending it at that!

I never go shopping during the day. Like you, I can't stand being around crowds when I'm shopping. . . so I usually go after I'm done work (after 10pm) when the stores are all but barren.
Choke isn't playing in my town which is ridiculous because most movies play here. Choke is one of the few Chuck books I haven't read. Still waiting for Survivor to be made into a movie.
Wish I had Friday off! =P
