They make me so depressed. 

The place I used to always buy my natural foods, the Whole Grocer, sold out to Whole Foods about a year ago.  The new Whole Foods store is now complete and the old store that used to be the Whole Grocer is being cleaned out, so everything was on sale 30% off.  I thought, wow, this will be my chance to try some of the things that are always too expensive to even try, and get some things for a couple of people I still owe gifts to.  But even with the prospect of gift-giving and at 30% off most of the stuff was STILL too expensive.  Even so, I carefully thought about it for a half hour and found a few things that seemed like a good idea.  They all fit in one of the smaller shopping bags. 

$112.  One Hundred and Twelve Dollars. 

That was over an hour ago and my heart is still fluttering in my throat.  It's a good job I didn't faint or shriek, "What!?  NO!  This is wrong!" 

On the other hand maybe I should have.  [expletive deleted]

ETA:
Also, I changed my journal layout. Change is always difficult for me, whether the change of stores I used to love or my own personal space. With my journal, I chose and like the changes, but it's still hard to get used to, especially feeling all flustered as I do at the moment.

Now must get things done. Going to the gym when Eor gets home. :)

In retrospect, the seven different shades of dark brown lipstick were probably the worst choice among the things I bought.  It's not like I even wear lipstick, I certainly don't need seven more lying around staring at me accusatorially for ignoring them.  If I were to carefully wash my hands and test them by touching my very clean finger on them in order to choose the least horrible of the shades, is there anyone among you who likes dark brown lipsticks and might like to try these?

I had to put the sidebar back on the right.  It wasn't indenting comments properly, and this I cannot stand.  It confuses me.
