Or I'm shopping in the wrong places. And I include Target in this. They shouldn't cost me more than $10. I'm just wanting a pair of crappy shower shoes, something to keep my feet off the grime for a quick few minutes.

I have a pair like that that are super thin but have held up amazingly well -- basically they are my house shoes but I have worn them out and about -- that cost like $3 at H&M a couple of years ago. Have you checked H&M and Old Navy?

ita, if they're just for the shower, go to a Walgreen's (or whatever big, chain drug store you have out there) and look in their seasonal aisle. They probably have the really cheap ones.

FLIPFLOPS ARE TOO FUCKING EXPENSIVE.

Old Navy. They used to be $2.50 a pair (and, I mean, made of $0.03 of foam rubber, you get what you pay for) and now I think they're $3. I have two pair, and they haven't spontaneously combusted on my feet yet!

$3.50 each OR for for $5! Many colors. Mine are on their 2nd summer of bumming around. Old Navy: [link]

H&M we don't have. Old Navy I'm sure we do.

Thursday. Week is ending. Week is ending.

Hustle was fun. I wonder if these thugs that they duped will come back to haunt them?

Yum -- I just had a cinnamon donut from the cafeteria that was both fresh and delicious. Not too much cinnamon or sugar on it, so a minimum of donut dust down my front, just the right size to feel indulged yet not overindulged.

Plus, I'm back at my old cube.

I was wondering that too, Sumi. Not my favorite ep, by far, but it was still fun.

I just wanted to thank you guys for the good thoughts on Monday. My friend is home now, still not healthy but much better. My brother still didn't come home, but this isn't any different than most of the days in the past three years anyway, so we're trying to take this as calmly as possible.

Thanks for letting me vent.

continued ~ma for Nilly's people. and hugs for Nilly.
