On Vaugely Unpleasant But Neccessary Tasks

I go clothes shopping about twice a year, and very much tend toward things that're on sale or clearance. My favorite store is and always has been Mervyn's, so I'm fairly upset (for me, anyway) about it going out of business. I can't stand Kohl's, so I guess I'm going to have to start shopping at Sears or JCPenny's instead and hope they have stuff I might wear. (The sad sad thing about life is that even though I live close to high-end stores, I don't like what they carry, finding it generally ugly and overpriced.) I still miss the bighugeginormous thrift store that I used to shop at; all the Goodwills and Salvation Armies around here are tiny and don't sort things by size which makes them too much effort for me.

So, tonight I went clothes shopping. Four jeans, three tops, two bras, a pair of slacks, a sweater, two packets of undies and a marcasite pendant and earring set later, I'm done for the next six months. Now I can toss out my old jeans, some undies, and a pair of slacks which were all getting rather holey.

Now I just have to go get my annual haircut. The one I haven't gotten in about three years. *sigh* Goodbye, waist-length hair.

I'm going to miss Mervyn's.
