why did the monkey fall out of the tree?
because it was dead.

mad props to jake for his contribution to my repatoire of bad jokes.

so i went to walmart again yesterday. you must think i go there an awful lot, which would be a fairly correct assessment. it's just the cheapest place to buy everyday stuff. what's sad is that i went to walmart and spent FIFTY DOLLARS. this might be okay if it was food. but it wasn't. it was random stuff. let's look at the list. laundry detergent. fabric softener. pretty horse folders (stupid five star notebook). face cleanser. hair ties. hanes underwear and a $10 pair of pants (i left a ton of my clothes in des moines and my dad was supposed to bring them out last weekend, but now he's not coming until the end of this month, so i'm rotating on 3 pairs of pants right now and i can't do laundry whenever i feel like it-- costs an arm and a leg... AND i think i lost my favorite pair of jeans. i have no idea where they are. so sad). oh yeah, and a calcium supplement. i decided that even though i drink a lot of milk and eat a fair amount of dairy, i drink enough coffee that i should probably take calcium. caffeine inhibits calcium absorption into your system, in case you didn't know. so yeah, all pretty much necessary stuff. there must be more than that. it's funny how i don't feel like i've wasted money if it's on food at the grocery store, but when it's toiletries and other like items, well... different story.

i need to go study hebrew. more later. peace out.
