I started breaking in a new pair of Birkenstocks today. Not fun.
Went to the Farmer's Market expecting to pick up some oatmeal bread... but they were doing some sort of weird Earth Day celebration instead of the usual Sunday market. There were like "chants" and masks... uh. Weird. And the Compost Fair was set up, so there were lots of earth worms.
Ended up at the Commons to burn off my odd morning energy (this was around 11am. Me. Dressed, made up, and eager to get out before 11am on a Sunday. WEIRD.) Ate at Viva Taquera. They've got awesome burritos and sangria (little early for sangria, though).
Went meandering around the Commons. Bought a couple Ani CDs at the used record shop.
Spent money at House of Shalimar. I got the cutest purse ever. Ever ever. It's by Bungalow 360... they don't have it up on the website, though. It fits everything I need... and a little more. Sweet. (PS: That's the button from my museum vigil I hosted... kids are still wearing them around campus. YAY!) I also picked up a peace sign car magnet. At first I was like, "What's 1.20.09 supposed to mean?" And then it hit me. Uh duh.
As you can see in the picture, I also bought some soap. Coconut and papaya with vanilla beans smells like the beach and olive butter with avocado and green tea leaves smells clean. I got it at the Africa store called Diaspora. Very neat place and nice owners.
Anyways, I've got homework due in every single class tomorrow. Plus an 8:30am thesis meeting to prepare for (that's far too early for criticism, I think). All I wanna do is nap. Sigh.
