I have to be at work at 7:30 in the morning...It's 2:12 AM right now. I went to Wal-Mart at 12:30 AM to get the new Bruce Hornsby CD, but it turns out- they don't put CD's out themselves, they have people come in and put all those up...and no telling if they'll even have it. I tried called twice to see if they had CD's out at midnight the day they're released, like they do with DVD's, but I could never get anyone in electronics to answer. So, I went, and it wasn't there...so, I was thinking maybe I would get a DVD. So, I look and I see a few CD's under 30 bucks (I had like $27, I believe), and I looked some more...and some more. I picked up the Invader Zim Vol 1 DVD. I like that show, I wanted the DVD when it came out, it's only $20, I'll get it. Then, I saw Aqua Teen Hungerforce Vol 2, and I have vol 1, so I picked it up and walked around with it for a bit (it was the last one they had on the shelf). Then, I saw they had the newest Rocket Power movie on DVD, which I taped from Nickelodeon, but this one has 3 bonus episodes...nah, I don't want this.
So, I started looking at computer games...saw a few that looked interesting. Maybe I will buy one of the sims games- the cheap kind...like rollercoaster tycoon, or maybe Carnival Cruise Line sim, or maybe mall sim, or theme park sim, or circus sim, or maybe one of those horror games with puzzles in them, 3D environments, finding clues to solve a mystery...or maybe I will get this one I noticed in back- I forget the name, but it was a presidential candidate game where you choose a candidate and try to win election by going on TV, smearing your opponent, getting the backing of various groups in the country, etc. So, I had that one in my hands for a while- it was only $20, I would get it.
By now, I had been there a while, and I felt nervous...like someone was thinking, why the hell has this guy been here looking over this small selection of DVD's and games for an hr and a half. Maybe I look stupid, maybe they think I'm trying to steal something! Nah...I don't look the type. Who knows tho. I've been here a long time, and there's so many good dvd's and games that there's too much to choose from, and it feels like my brain might explode. Then, I'm thinking- maybe I should wait and get something I really want when I get paid and have more money to spend...like Boomtown season 1 on DVD which is 37, or one of the other tv shows on dvd I want. They have a bunch of Jimmy Neutron episodes- hmmm. Nah. I should wait. Wait until the Bruce Hornsby is actually in stores tomorrow and get it like I had planned.
So, I left. Well, not before going over to thea area where they have school and office supplies, looking for big post it notes WITHOUT the sticky stuff...don't see any, so I went out the door.
I'm driving away and McDonald's is right there, and I'm planning on stopping there, because I AM hungry, and I did eat really early today- at about 4PM, which is all I had all day...but, I got into the turn lane, yet didn't turn. I shouldn't spend any money, I thought...I should save it and do what I was going to do. I don't need food at 2 AM anyhow.
So, now it's 2:22 AM, and I don't feel tired enough to go to sleep, but I have to get up at 6:30 and be there by 7:30...I guess I'll go in there and watch TV. Maybe Dr. Katz on tape. Man, I should have stopped at McDonald's...
