A Mall Rat’s Train of Thought

I think that the most annoying thing, more than inconvenience itself, is an unscheduled inconvenience.

I came home this morning relieved that I had the morning to do what ever I chose to do, but apparently all my choices needed something we didn’t have…

I went straight to my room, flicked the light switch on and nothing…nooooo! There was no electricity.  Without batting an eyelash I headed for the shower (yes, in semi darkness), got ready and left as quickly as I arrived.

The malls had opened and I gladly parked and entered the cool building.  *sigh of relief* AC and WiFi!  What did we do without them?!

At the mall, i heard a good sermon and then went around to complete the items I needed to buy for our trip to DC… oh and a couple of things I wanted to buy…its 3 months deferred payment, 0% interest anyway… man that sales lady was good!  Nine West (ooops a give away!) should give her an award for being so convincing to vulnerable shoppers like me!

I happily roamed the mall, big paper bag in hand, with other heat stricken citizens and found my place at Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf. I would have been deliriously happy except the internet connection was not as great as it was this morning.

Goodness, and I realized I had forgotten my camera at home so ill just have to make do with my Omnia.  And in my haste I also left my earphones so I’m hoping my music gets drowned out by the ambient noise, and unless I get a dagger look from the person in the next table, I’m playing my tunes to keep me from dozing off. *from-duty yawn*

I decided I’d stay until the number coding is lifted.  There’s nothing worse than being bored besides being bored in the dark, right?!

*sigh*

I’m seriously getting sleepy, must be the dim lights here…but I don’t want to give away my spot near the charging area and the mall doesn’t look as cool as it was this morning.  3 more hours until I can get up and go.  This idle time is making me think of little nick knacks to buy…banish bad thoughts…

I wish the internet connection was better…..i wish the power would turn back on…
