it's raining, it's pouring... and i probably ought to be asleep right now.

ok, well. i'll try to post every other day. maybe every day is a little too much for me to handle right now.

had another night terror last night, which was good. i love getting my face sucked off in recurring dreams. wonderful. there was also something about missing limbs, a room with wood flooring and walls covered in mirrors, the color orange, s&m, and a maniacal middle aged man. oh, and i was a boy. fun stuff. kyle apparently tried to wake me up but couldn't. i resent that. next time he has full permission to use a frying pan. either that wakes me up, or it knocks out my brain function, thus eliminating said freaky dreams. win-win.

oh, and, the weather sucks. i can't figure out if my mood is mimicking it, or if it's mimicking my mood. chicken and the egg.

i also realized how easy it is to shoplift today. i had bought a belt at target a few weeks ago and ment to return it today, so i stuffed it in my purse to avoid seeking out a shopping bag for a tiny little belt. i went into target and forgot to go to the returns counter first, so i began shopping. i was over at the belt isle, remembered i had my belt with me, and took it out of my purse to see which belt it was on the rack (so as to buy a smaller size.) i continued to stuff it back into my purse, which was left unzipped, pick out my new belt, and carry on. as i was checking out, i took my wallet out of my purse, thus partially exposing the belt within. no one noticed. no one cared. i then walked out of the store, put my purchases in my car, and walked back in to the returns counter. no questions asked.

"man," said i to myself, "it would be quite easy to take two belts: one goes in the shopping cart, one goes in the purse. then ," pondered i, "i could take the belt in my bag back in to the returns counter, use the receipt where it shows i purchased a belt, and return that belt for cash! then i would have one belt, plus the money i paid for it, back in my purse! what fools they are at target...." and then i thought: "then again, if i managed to put the belt in my purse in the first place, i guess there's no need for buying another belt... what fools i is."

on another note, my adorable 1940's tan pump heels were adorably uncomfortable after five hours of wear. that depresses me. but i did find an all vegan pair of boat shoes at target! they're soft and squishy and look like Sperry knock-offs and only cost 30 bucks. i'm in love.

the important thing to come away from this post with is that i am holding a gigantic homemade reese's cup the size of my palm. and you aren't.
