Jan. 17th, 2007 09:08 pmI purchased this strange green tea granola from Target today because it looked interesting. Surprisingly, it's not bad. I really like Target's proprietary food brand--they make a lot of food that's pretty tasty, pretty cheap, and doesn't have all sorts of fake shit in it. Also, they make these fantastic jalapeƱo cheddar potato chips that are To Die For.
In addition, I purchased chocolate (yay!) and macadamia nuts (yay!) and another skein of yarn to finish up my sister's scarf o' doom.
Most importantly, however, I got the monster pack of Sharpies and five brand-new Pilot .5 mm pens. Since I can never find a Sharpie when I need one and those pens are the only ones I ever write with, these are Important Purchases. Sharpies are like safety pins--prolific when you don't need them and strangely skittish when you do. Except for the yellow and light green ones, which turn up in hordes every time you go looking for their siblings. It's one of my pet theories that all Sharpies turn yellow or light green after a fortnight, in the same way tapes all turn to Queen. (Oh, Gaiman and Pratchett, you geniuses.) As an added bonus to the solution of the Sharpie Dilemma, I now have enough pens to give them their own mug separate from the knitting needles, which makes my aesthetic sense a little happier.
I am so lame sometimes omg.
I can't figure out what to write next. I think I want to work on some of my original stuff, but I haven't felt very drawn to poetry lately and my prose is very much all dialogue. And I'm working a split double tomorrow--11 to 2 and then again from 5 to 10:30--so of course I'll have very little time to do much of anything. But my paycheck will be beautiful.
This feels very pointless. Today has felt very pointless. Every once in a while, it's nice to live a pointless day.

Also, forgot to DL SPN this morning. Forgot it was on last night! I am such a horrible, horrible fan. I also have a shirt from Ms. Moten that says "feed a musician, download legally." Yeah, right.
