- When I go shopping I usually take a basket and dump everything I see (which I like) in the basket. I then edit my selection while I walk around the shop. Sorry sales people, I am that annoying person who leaves stuff in different parts of the store.
- Ruy sometimes gets shocked when he sees the number of things inside my cart or basket. He doesn’t realize that those have not been screened.
- I do the same with books. Last week, I had 8 books in my basket and I ended up buying 2.
- Speaking of books. I went to National Bookstore last Sunday with Ruy and Andrea. Ruy came up to me holding 2 books. One was a small coffee table book about handbags which was marked down to 200 and another is a book about motivation which was marked down to 150. I had to keep myself from smiling…these were the books I ended up not buying last week. Imagine he was able to pick these out of the thousand of books in the shop. Amazing huh?
- I prefer going to shops on my own. I really take a lot of time when shopping and only a handful of people have the patience to stay with me. Ruy tries but he still gets impatient sometimes.
- Ruy offered to buy me Crocs last Sunday. I told him not to bother. I love how comfy they are but I cannot stand looking at my feet when I’m wearing crocs. We spent the money on clothes, shoes and nipples for Andrea…then we bought food from the grocery. I think that’s money better spent.

someone once said, “i don’t care how incredibly comfy crocs are; you look like a dumbass!” crocs will be so convenient when i start working in the lab/hospital but, like you, i can’t stand looking in the mirror while wearing them. it’s such a fashion faux pas, no? they only look good on kids and really old men.
