Nov 30, 2003 11:44

I went shopping yesterday -- my father is a generous man; he handed me a $100 bill after attending my play last week with instructions to buy myself a new pair of shoes and jeans while I was at it -- despite my better judgment at stepping into a mall during the weekend-after-Thanksgiving-consumer-madness.

I applaud you. I'd probably feel proud about it, myself.

I love you. You've just acted out something I've only dreamed of doing in fantasies.

Hehe. Thank you. I had more fun than I probably had any right having. Wish you were there!

Haha! I know exactly what you mean! And I got some satisfaction myself just from reading about you doing that. You big bad asshole, you. Tee hee!

Yes, I'm a mean, mean man. But seriously, I get so worked up seeing these kids strut around I feel I just have to do something. Not necessarily to teach them a lesson, because honestly they will probably never learn, but just to make me feel better.

asshole? no.
hero? certainly.
i applaud you, sir. i think you've inspired me.
