Updated Matthew Good collection, gourmet chocolate, shortbread, and more!
I went on a major shopping spree today after I did some important banking. Probably spent more money than I should have, but it's worth the cost... all I have to do now is mail Jennifer and Tara's cards (I need a US stamp), and get two wedding cards for Emily / Mike and Martin / Phyllis. Bumped into Marcel on the bus, which was nice: we talked about Elizabeth (busy with work at the funeral home), James (pursuing some kind of degree at Trinity?!), his mom (she's BLIND now?! EEP!), and hackers on his computer.
Staples: three 10-packs of good pens (half-price!)
Shoppers Drug Mart: a pack of four light bulbs (88ยข each), dryer sheets ($3 for 80 - since I'm now afraid of static half the time for some reason :P), an Easter card for Jennifer (tehgreenfairy) as it was the only one whose envelope would fit the New York sticker packs
Big Orange: a cantaloupe bubble tea
the Bay: blue washcloth, brown medium towel (replacements), on-sale "white chocolate with cranberry" shortbread, and on-sale shortbread with a milk chocolate centre (I saved money even though I didn't have a Bay card - SCORE!)
HMV: Hospital Music, 1995-2005: In A Coma, Vancouver, The Very Best of the Byrds, plus an HMV points card
London Drugs: three packs of index cards (a pack of 100 is $4 cheaper than a notepad!), kitchen towels (also replacements), dark chocolate Quadratini (haven't had that in forever), Japanese Bin-Bin rice crackers (ditto), Maxfield's Gourmet chocolate x2 (one for Jon and Harmony - thank GOD that their anniversary is past Lent!), Jon and Harmony's anniversary card, a new artsy mousepad (it DOES make a difference!), the 45-piece flatware set for Emily and Mike's wedding, and blue toothpaste
Got home, put stuff away, prepared other stuff, and talked to Teunis about coding (since 1992?!) / programming languages / various cover songs / Aqua's BARBIE GIRL / Bob Saget on a radio interview / R.E.M.'s LOSING MY RELIGION, Cannibal Corpse and others doing a cover of Peter Gabriel's SHOCK THE MONEY / REQUIEM FOR A DREAM.
