OK, for all you who say I shouldn't hate the US for its inflexible rules, irresponsible people, fatness, lack of privacy, horrifying overuse of cars, and the 45 other things that are on my "Why America SUCKS" list--there is one thing that I like about the US. It has good bookstores.
I was in an enormous Barnes & Noble today that kept me entertained for nearly three hours. I bought 2 novels, two technical books, and a picture book for under $100. And I had lunch there, too.
Unfortunately, what should have been a bit of relaxation with my sandwich and latte was marred by the very loud (#6), mindless chatter and bickering of the cafe employees.
(And a side note: why is it so hard to find gloves in late January? I could have had flip flops and short sleeved t-shirts at three stores, but only one had any gloves--in two colors and two styles.)
Kuri, If all your problems are that you had to put up with yakamashi bookstore employees ruining your attempt for a relaxing lunch and that you couldn't find any gloves that you fancied....woman, I'll trade you lives any day!
: )
Cool more books for me to borrow when you get back! I hink you need t spend a couple more days in the bookstore - even with arguing employees...
Honey I think the problem may lie in that you've forgooten to be assertive. Exercise your American right to complain to management about things you are unhappy with :-)
Hell I do when I'm OS...especially Stateside...
You're definitly right about trying to find winter items now in stores. Here's the retail calendar as I've seen it lately. As soon as the last firework has fired on the 4th of July, the Halloween stuff comes out. At 6pm on Halloween night it all disappears and out comes the Christmas stuff. On Dec. 25, the spring stuff and Easter stuff comes out. As soon As Easter is over, the summer stuff comes out, and the whole cycle begins anew. We wanted to get another pair of boot type things for Evan last night and while the boots were gone, they did have buckets for sand. NEvermind its 10 degrees F and four feet of snow outside.
