Post-Thanksgiving Activities

Well, there's the obvious shopping. I found out something else on Monday night. Usually around 8pm, the gym start to thin out a bit. Not this Monday... I got there around 8:30 and the place was slammed. I guess everyone was working off Thanksgiving dinner. Speaking of, I had turkey with the usual stuffing, mashed potatoes, etc. Since then, I've had turkey by itself, with rice, and with mac and cheese. I guess I'll make a turkey sandwich tomorrow. I think I only have enough turkey for another three meals or so.

Crazy soccer parents!

So I live next to a soccer field with many weekends filled with soccer matches. On weekday nights, there's often practices going on. Well... some of these parents and coaches need to calm down! They're just freakin kids! It's not boot camp! Last time I checked, kids are suppose to be playing sports to have fun.

Why the pins?

So I just got some new dress shirts. Why do they have a bazillion pins in them? And there's tons of extra packaging stuff, like the plastic collar support thing, and the cardboard middle that the shirt wraps around. I think they should just get rid of all that stuff. Sure, the shirt will get wrinkled, but I don't care about that. I'd rather pay less if they got rid of all the excess stuff.

Lots of travel = less gray hair?

So I was traveling all over the world the past month and half. Though I didn't get much sleep, I still seem to have reduced the number of gray hairs I usually get. Low stress is good.

Buying in bulk not always cheaper

So I was buying some OJ at the grocery store and had the option of the bigger or smaller bottle. I instinctively went to grab the bigger bottle thinking it'd be cheaper per oz, but I thought I should check the label. Turns out the smaller bottle was also cheaper per oz. Go figure. Of course, there was the milk that cost as much to buy a half gallon as a full gallon; so the half gallon was twice the price per oz.
