I'm Still Trying To Get Warm...

masterofmidgetsJust back from grocery shopping. It was...much more of an adventure that I had anticipated. The shopping part was not so much a problem - I went to Daiso and poked around, but sadly I got distracted by all the shiny and never found the chopsticks I was looking for. Oh well. Spent less money at TJ's than last time, but still got miso soup and crackers and organic apples and new kinds of cheese (herbed goat cheese, California cheddar, and something called raclette) and dark chocolate yay.
But then when I left the store I had to wait half an hour for the bus to come. And it was raining rather hard. And it was really, really windy - so windy, in fact, that it blew my umbrella inside out, which I thought only happened in cartoons and movies from the '20s. It was cold and damp and extremely unpleasant. I had to put my hair up in a bun to keep it from blowing in my face, but that made my ears and neck freeze. And then my grocery bag broke, because the bottom was wet from the rain! Thank god I bring my bookbag everywhere, or I don't know what I would have done. As it was, I still had to snag an abandoned plastic bag from the parking lot to put the stuff that wouldn't fit. I was very put out. And if all that weren't enough, when the bus finally came and I was going home, the bus driver missed my stop completely, so I had to walk the extra distance from the next past stop. With all my poorly distributed groceries. Still in the rain.
I WANT TO PUNCH THE UNIVERSE IN THE FACE.
