1. I sent my sister her belated birthday gift yesterday. My mom had thought of the obvious solution: chocolate. And other foods as an afterthought. Rather than buy a ridiculously expensive package online, I customized on a run to Trader Joe's. (You know, that's the kind of store that makes me imagine an alternate life in which I buy all the stuff I haven't had there. Is it just me?) Sarah was puppyishly excited to hear she was getting a package, even without hearing the contents were edible.
2. Note to self: Stop renting video games. Period. You may be learning a tidbit of culture from them, you may even be having fun with them all seven nights, but ultimately there are better ways to spend your time. You know what happened with your last seven rentals. Basically, if you're certain from the outset that it's for you, buy it or put it on your wish list; otherwise, leave it alone.
3. It's not worth it to me to buy an LJ upgrade, partly because I don't feel like stocking up on icons or even alternating the ones I already have. But the realist in me does not prevent the dreamer (ever strong) from thinking of icons I'd like. They would give readers a new impression of me. What I'd most like right now is an iPod spoof featuring the silhouette of Alfred Hitchcock, the caption being "iConfess." I might have the capacity to make it myself, but again, I don't expect to doff the keaton face anytime soon.
