I feel like such a loser. since I had to close my bank accounts and credit card because of the robbery I've had to pay for groceries with cash. not a problem, right? wrong. whenever i'm in line and someone only has cash on them and the items come out as more than they have, it usually takes them a long to to figure out what to return and i feel so bad for them because that must be REALLY EMBARRASSING. Although it doesn't bother me that I have to wait for them to figure out what to return, if it takes them a really long time then I start to get bothered. Well...I bought ten items and it came out to $39+! When I left I remembered that I had to add up roughly what i was buying because I had no other form of payment available besides the cash I had on me and when I got there I totally forgot. It didn't occur to me until I saw the total and I mean it is SO EXPENSIVE there. I could have bought the same items at Trader's and would have spent less than half that amount. I had $32.00 and change on me and first he just took away one thing and that brought it to $32.70 so he put that back and took away two different things which bought it to $35 something and then he asked what the $6.99 item was and I said it was that watermelon so he took that back and the bank called me yesterday and said they hadn't been able to close my accounts because there was a $9.95 charge (THEY SHOULD HAVE CLOSED IT LAST TUESDAY!!!) so I figured I would try my ATM card because the account might still be open but it wasn't and the cashier waived the $0.70 that I probably had in change but he just waived it which made me feel even worse even though there were people waiting. I FEEL LIKE SUCH A LOSER! It's obviously not that I don't have the money or the credit, it's that I had this robbery (which I mentioned to him, I was panicked, THIS HAS NEVER HAPPENED TO ME BEFORE) and I left there wanting to scream in frustration and embarrassment and I couldn't stop running it through my head. This is like one of those mistakes that my mother talks about, that I was bothered with her for because she kept going on and on and wanted approval about [her own mistake] but I don't tell my mother [or father] these things hardly ever because they make me feel worse even if that isn't their intension. I usually just tell my therapist and/or sister or after agonizing about it in my head for a few days I forget to tell either and it just goes away. I'm so embarrassed I want to crawl in a hole...
I've spent most of the day reading Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows which was slow moving all week, I just wasn't getting into it, too much going on. I have a hard time turning off the noise of the TV. I'm not fond of silence unless I'm at work or something, then I prefer it. Anyhow, I finally know what the "Deathly Hallows" refers to (I'm on page 519 of 759 pages). It's good. I don't think it will ever be my favorite for the lack of ... ACTION. There's a lot of arguing between Harry, Hermione & Ron in this book which gets old. There's also a lot of sitting and waiting and planning and deciding what to do next, where to go, etc. So far there's only one death that I wish hadn't happened, the others were characters I didn't care for. I don't know if more "good" people die but I sure hope not. I wish they had the house elves in the movies more. I love the other books where Dobby brings Harry a present and Hermione (?) or someone knits him hats (?) or something and he wears them all at once. lol I think I remember that happening. I loved Dobby in the second movie.
My parents both have their new computers and my mother's replaced some of her jewelry but I haven't been in the mood to think about replacing my Samsung. It's all very depressing and makes me a little paranoid. I wish my dad had just bought it at Circuit City last night but they told him they don't carry it in the store. Well, I guess I'll go back to reading. Hopefully I'll forget about my grocery store experience before I have to go back, although I could stall that by shopping at CVS, Trader Joe's in Pasadena, Trader Joe's in La Canada, and Vons (although I hate Vons). *sigh* I hate life.
