Today was the day we had to take BFF to the airport and let her return home. Alas. But FIRST! There was shopping! We went to The Mall, Oh Help Me Jesus, Target and Barnes and Noble. I didn't really find anything at The Mall, Oh Help Me Jesus, but BFF found these shoes, and flailed over them. Turns out they were cheaper than she could find them online, plus she didn't have to pay shipping, so she tried them on for three seconds and they were hers. Also! It was just chilly enough to warrant the drinking of the first Hot Apple Blast of the season from Caribou. It was delicious. And mom's treat, so even better!
After that we went to Target where I again didn't find anything other than some Burt's Bees lip balm, but Mom found a few things she wanted, though at this point I forget what. Heh.
Then, we went to the one place I can ALWAYS manage to spend money. Barnes and Noble. Horribly overpriced? Yes. Do I care? Not particularly. While there I found A Great and Terrible Beauty and Wicked (the first book). The cashier encouraged me to read the second book even if I didn't care for the first, as she didn't like the first but thought the second was very, very good. I probably will.
Then it was time to see BFF off. The parting happened fairly quickly, mostly just a hug and "Bye! Call me when you get there! Safe travels!" I was sad to see her go, but she'll be back eventually, so it's okay. In retrospect, however, the "Safe travels!" was a dweeb thing to say. May as well have been "Best wishes!" Ah well. It was still a good day.
I spent money, sure, but it was on BOOKS (mostly). BOOKS, guys.
