Tuesday's tribulations

Just got home from Monkeytown a short while ago. A successful trip work-wise, but not as much so shopping wise.

Got the muffin tins I've been wanting, now I can ditch the old ones. Also got my much revered Belgain chocolate.

Upon discovering that the owner of an imports store in Fredericton had now opened up shop in Moncton, I set off today deciding I was going to find myself a hip scarf for when dance class starts up again in the fall. I am currently borrowing one from my office roomie and need to eventually give that back to her. I stopped by the store but to my dismay they had very little in the way of hip scarves, similar to the limited selection that I saw in Montreal. What they did have was too large for me. This appears to be my problem - no one expects a skinny belly dancer. So I have resigned myself to the fact that I am going to have to buy something online. I'd just rather be able to see it in person before buying.

Made a stop into Chapters to buy a book, but it wasn't 30% off like it is online, so much for that plan. After looking at it, not sure I want it anymore anyway.

Stopped at Costco and got some chicken, steak, a magazine, bug lantern refills (though I can't find the bug lanterns) and some power bars for work. Not much in the way of books today, I didn't see anything that interested me. I already have a pile of books and magazines to catch up on anyway, so just as well.

For the first time in quite a while, I am off to bed early. Looking forward to a little bit of extra sleep :)

Yeah, if you're looking for table-top Citronella torches, we can help you out. But ignore my email on the matter, cuz that's what I thought you were talking about.

I'd also be interested in checking out belly dancing. I hear its a great, and fun, workout.
