Check it: a new Tuesday linky to join up to. I know some people who did Random Tuesday used that post but I’m just not discovering this. Hence, double dippin’.

So, I think I’ll talk about shopping. Let’s set some things straight: I hardly ever shop… in the sense of “Honey, I’m going to the mall and I’ll be back in a few hours”, and then come home with a few bags that include clothes and shoes and whatever else I could find. Lord knows I am waaay too money conscious to even allow myself to buy A top, let alone bags worth.

But over the last couple months  – when I have been exceedingly broke – I began making a mental list of all the stuff I’m gonna buy when the money comes in. And I’m gonna share it with you right now. Don’t you feel special??

– Yur buds! These look awesome and I hear that they actually stay in your ears because of the design. They’re specified to your ear – as per your photo with the scale compared to a quarter – so they fit like a glove. I don’t have too many issues with my headphones until I get up past 7-8 miles.

– a new dish drainer. Lame, I know, but we need one and I can never seem to squeeze it into budget.

– this t-shirt, because it isn’t the typical Back to the Future tee you see all the time. And I effing love that movie.

– A new pair of running shoes. Mine definitely have over 400 miles on them and I want to break in the new ones before my half at the end of October.

– A new phone! My ATT contract is up on 11/19 and I want to switch to Verizon. Don’t know what phone I’m gonna get but whatever it is, it’ll be better than mine, which is now two years old.

And that’s it, my friends. I know I had other stuff on the list but it’s at home in my journal on my bedside table and, well, I’m at work, conducting student conferences. Joy!
