Saturday

[innerslytherin]

Had a good day today. Mom and I drove up to Jasper-Pulaski Fish and Wildlife Area to see the sandhill cranes. At the height of fall migration (which is October) there are something like 30,000 sandhills there. Today there couldn't have been that many, but I'm guessing there were a few thousand. It was incredible how many of them there were, and how wonderfully noisy and gorgeous and awkward yet beautiful they were.

On the way home we stopped quickly at JC Penney, where I bought a pair of brown dress boots (I had JUST BARELY given up on the brown dress boots I've been wearing for at least 5 years), a black wool men's peacoat (because the women's didn't have inside pockets WTF?!), and a pair of Levi's (men's, because those also fit me better) for like $170 total. I'm incredibly happy that Black Friday sales now extend to Saturday. LOL I also got a couple of new nail polish colors because Sally Beauty is right next to Michael's, where Mom and I also stopped.

Of course, I have only gotten about 400 words written so far. You guys, I might not make NaNo this year. *sigh*

There are not too many things that can beat finding a good pair of jeans and not having to pay through the nose for them. These days though, I am much more of a cyber Monday kinda girl. Malls and crowds are one of my major phobias......I can have panic attacks. Last year though I did get a $200 wool coat for my Dad for $89. That was pretty sweet.

Sorry about Nano, maybe next year. Of course there is still two more days to write your ass off.

No kidding! I've decided that one of my first indulgences when I win the lottery, though, is going to be a custom-tailored pair of jeans. Something that'll ride low on my hips to take into account my short torso, and be long enough, and that won't pinch at the wrong places. LOL
