What I bought yesterday (long)

[Chris Braun]

Too much :-). Had the day off work and spent it running around and
shopping and stuff. Just for fun, here's an inclusive shopping list
-- some not AF-related:

At a diner -- breakfast with my trainer after workout: 2 fried eggs,
English muffin w/ butter, grapefruit juice (I guess I bought the
trainer session, too, though we pay by the month.)

At a 7-11 after breakfast: a dozen eggs and a 6-pack of Diet Pepsi (to
take home, not to eat then!)

At a restaurant -- lunch with my girlfriend, who spent the rest of the
day running around with me: Ahi tuna appetizer; lobster bisque; iced
tea

At Target:

- 2 pairs (a 2-pack) cotton Hello Kitty bikini panties, one red w/
blue trim and kitty in blue, other blue w/ kitty in red -- Sanrio
(completely frivolous but cute)

- l/s knit shirt, crew neck, w/ tiny horizontal stripes in shades
of pink -- Cherokee

- sports bra w/ horizontal stripes in grey, pink, yellow, red, white
-- Moret (I'm wanting to see if I can wear a 1X instead of a 2X; I
think they're getting a trifle loose)

- socks with pastel stripes in pale green, blue, pink, taupe --
Cherokee

- socks with stripes in tan, orange, green, yellow, brown --
Cherokee

- knee-high socks in white with some pink bands near the top --
xhiliration

- pink socks with blue kitty faces -- xhiliration

- hot-dog shaped bag in grey knit fabric (like gym sweats) with
fuchsia stripes -- xhiliration

- pink fabric bag w/ tan faux leather trim and white stripe up the
middle -- Isaac Mizrahi

- white & pink vinyl clutch bag w/ white persian kitty on side --
Life

- blue denim bag w/ red & white webbing strap -- xhiliration

- white faux leather bag -- xhiliration

- peach-colored canvas tote w/ picture of kitty in a cafe window --
xhiliration {Lots of bags. Until very recently I only had one at a
time, so I'm making up for lost time :-) .)

At Chico's (all their brand):

- jean-style jacket, linen/cotton blend, in an unusual watercolor
sort of street scene print in blues, pinks, yellows

- jean-style pants, linen/cotton blend, unusual painting-like design
in oranges, greys, greens, reds -- with a woman with flowing hair on
one leg and a white cat on the other

- linen pants -- taupe with geometric designs in rusts, greys, beige
-- sort of hieroglyphic looking print

- rust-colored knit l/s top in a rust color -- silk/nylon/rayon

- same top in a pale yellowish-green

- linen shirt -- button front, tunic-length w/ side slits, in bright
yellow

- same shirt in coral

- necklace w/ a bunch of strands of beads in golds, deep blues,
greys, w/ large round medallion

Then a massage.

At Payless, while my friend was having her massage:

- pointy-toed mid-calf boots in patchwork of faux leather in various
pink/mauve shades -- 4" heels (totally frivolous, but cheap) --
Predictions

- pumps w/ round toe, ankle strap, open sides, in a patchwork of
faux leather in shades of beige & brown -- Highlights

At CVS, also during her massage: People magazine. (I went in to look
for the CG TruBlend that I've been hearing about, but I couldn't find
it.)

At the gym where the massage studio is, for a snack, an ostrich/beef
jerky stick and a bottle of water.

At a Japanese restaurant: miso soup, Japanese salad, edamame, sushi
(flying fish roe, eel, salmon, tuna/avocado roll), iced tea

Then to a wine tasting (where we met up with my friend's DH; mine
doesn't care much about wine), then home. A nice day :-).

These are great, I have several colors also.

I love them too. It didn't initially attract my attention on the
hanger, but I loved it when I put it on.
