so tonight i took jeanette to the junction to buy some stuff. we were proud of ourselves - in and out in less than 5 minutes. all shopping should be this efficient. you see, this summer i received a wonderful gift, but couldn't use it until i had my purchase from tonight. not that i have any particular reason to use it, but what's the point of having a gift that is unusable? if you know what i mean, great. if not, feel free to refrain from asking unnecessary questions. the end.
