Borders Closes - The end of an era

Borders was probably the single most contributing factor to my credit card debt in the late 1990s - early 2000s. I spent hundreds if not thousands of dollars on computer programming books. Then in 2004 I remember shopping one day with my brand new smartphone, a sidekick. I wanted to buy Make Magazine but I decided to try looking up the price online and it was way cheaper. I ordered the magazine right there from my phone. It remember because it was the first time I ever bought something online and I was real sketched out about entering my credit card number in. Shortly thereafter I bought all of my computer books on amazon. Now border is out of business. I guess it all makes sense. Now I shop from my phone all the time.

I will miss the experience of going to the bookstore (e:paul,32098)

Its so funny to see genres broken down by different percentages off. If you want magazine you should go now, they are going quick but they are 50% off.

I put on my shoes and I'm ready for the weekend

I bought three pairs of shoes for WEMF. A pair of breathable walking shoes, new sandals, and a replacement pair for my WEMF 2008 shoes which are failing apart on the inside. I know its crazy but who knows when this will ever happen again.

I was having the hardest time deciding between size 12 and 13 but at the last minute I looked on Google which said to go big for exercise because your feet swell with exertion.

The best part was that the sandals I almost paid $110 for last week were on clearance for $49. (e:tinypliny) and I actually closed down the mall. To get back to the car we had to travel down some employee hallway which tiny said was murder central.

I feel so fat now that I am medium instead of extra small.

This picture of tiny is so nuts because we were moving so fast.

Weirdest Foods

From this week. The tinyest chicken legs at India Gate. Try and tell me they are not pidgeons.

The thinest NY strip steak I have ever seen.

And the fattiest chocolate. Check out those callories and fat.

Deadly Nightshade

At brushwood (e:yesthatcasey) told me he likes to eat random red berries from bushes. He wasnt sure which berries so he tried this one random berry but decided it was the wrong one. I was terrified but he didn't die. For future reference this is deadly nightshade and what I was afraid he was going to eat.
