saving

so all of this saving-for-the-wedding stuff is getting kind of old. i have always been a pretty frugal girl; i really never spend money on something i haven't thought through first. and i never get stressed, but i think i just kind of lost it for a minute today. new job, new house, new city, planning a wedding, i think it's all finally catching up with me. ;)

about an hour ago, the skies opened up above fort worth and let out a downpour of rain and lightning. in a panic, i raced home to let norman inside. i was soaked from head to toe. i think something snapped, because the last hour is a blur.

before heading back to work, hair dripping, clothes looking like i just stepped out of the shower, i made an impulsive trip to target. why? i'm not sure why. i didn't need anything from target (see how tight my rubber-band of emotions are, i was stressed b/c of a storm, i'm like a puppy). so anyway, remember that scene in father of the bride (yes, i know my audience)when steve martin gets stressed out in the grocery store over hot dog buns and ends up in jail? i think i probably looked about like that walking through target. i was wet, tired, frazzled, and walking funny because i had mud in my shoes from chasing norman...so i wasted some hard earned cash on the following (which i must say, is a good alternative to jail):

- front porch mat that reads "woof"
- bright blue sports bra (after all, i only have 45 of those things)
- two grey t-shirts (again, probably have 15 grey t's, so i definitely needed more)
- lipstick and lipliner (when do i wear lipstick?)
- some sort of magical tan lotion (i don't wear sunscreen, why do i need self tanner)

now i'm back at work. satisfied and feeling very wasteful. good times.
