Today my usual bus the #20 came a few minutes earlier than usual. I caught the next bus after that #2. I had to jog down the street to catch the light rail train on time. The train station looked a little more crowded than usual. All in all it looks like I’m going to be on time this morning.

CHRISTMAS SHOPPING PHASE I: Yesterday, I officially started my Christmas shopping. I went to The Gallery at Harbor Place. I started off wanting to get change so that I could buy snacks from out of the vending machine at work. I wanted to get something inexpensive like incense. I went into the Necessities variety store. I only saw incense for close to 4 bucks. They were imported from India.
I wanted to get change for a 5.

I tried to decide between getting cookies or chocolate which ever was less expensive. I think I may have worried the clerk in the store. He went around the back and fumbled around with sodas I got the feeling he was shadowing me. I ended up getting a pack of Snackwells vanilla cream wafer cookies total Weight Watchers point total 5.

Then as I was leaving I noticed that they had a number of cute figurines on sale 50% off. These would make really great Christmas presents for my coworkers.

Afterwards I went to Bath and Body Works. I bought a candle for Linda. The candle is exchangeable. So if she doesn’t want it she can just exchange it for something else.

WHAT I’M WEARING: Today it’s allegedly supposed to be getting up to the 60’s. So I came to work wearing a light fall jacket instead of my heavy winter coat. I feel chilly like I should not have bothered listening to the weather people.

I have on the long sleeve lavender pullover, blue jeans and black canvas tennis shoes. After Christmas I suppose I’ll go on a shoe and clothes buying rampage. I love how all the prices go down after Christmas. This is the main reason I have a lot of green long sleeve blouses and sweaters. Apparently green isn’t a very popular color for clothes in Baltimore. Hence, they can be found in abundance on the January after Christmas sales rack.
