I buy the cheap-o $14 jeans from Walmart and usually go with a light blue and a dark blue pair. This time I bought a light blue pair labeled &#8220;low rise.&#8221; Didn&#8217;t know what that meant &#8211; didn&#8217;t think it mattered&#8230; Well, &#8220;low rise&#8221; means the waste is a little lower than one is used to. While wearing the jeans, I have this need to continually pull them up. The dark pair of jeans that I bought were &#8220;boot cut&#8221; jeans. Again, no clue what that meant, so I went ahead and bought them. Guess what? (Yeah, you folks all probably knew this already.) They&#8217;re just bell-bottoms with a new name. Cool! I&#8217;ve got bell bottoms! I haven&#8217;t had a pair of bell bottoms since I was 10 (or maybe younger). Mom liked them on me &#8211; says they&#8217;re slimming. I think these might become my new favorite jeans. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>In other shopping news, mom and I joined Sam&#8217;s Club today. This is one of those places where you pay $XX to join for a year and they have loads of bulk products and (supposedly) less expensive shit. I made out well &#8211; spent nearly $300!!! But I got some really cool shit. I bought a Rio S10 MP3 player (64MB internal RAM and a 32MB MMC card) and a 128MB SD card for less than $130. And it&#8217;s sweet. Already filled it up with Xmas music for our Thanksgiving trip to see Amy Lou. I also got some long-sleeved t-shirts for me and the science department since I&#8217;ve promised to make them department t-shirts. Haven&#8217;t made iron-on transfers for awhile, so I&#8217;ll need to get back into the swing of things. Also bought a sweater, some flourescent bulbs, computer puzzle games, and some Slimfast bars (the granola kind &#8211; great for breakfast). Oh yeah, got some socks and some sucky candies (long story) as well. <\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Twas a good time shopping. The folks didn&#8217;t buy as much as me &#8211; except that mother bought herself a new pair of glasses, and that did surpass my total. Whether or not I&#8217;ve made up for the cost of the club, I don&#8217;t really know. Nor do I care. The joy of shopping at Sams is just in seeing all the bulk items one could buy. I mean, I could have bought 3-lifetime supplies of ranch dressing, had I so desired! (I had no such desire.) Oh, and at the eye-place, they gave us each a small bottle of glasses cleaning fluid and a small cloth wipe. I love freebies. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p><strong>Current Mood:<\/strong> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/pagefillers.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/blah.gif\" alt=\"mood_blah\" width=\"50\" height=\"50\" \/> drained<br \/>\n<strong>Current Music:<\/strong> &#8220;In the Bleak Midwinter&#8221; by John Bowen \/ King&#8217;s College Choir<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I need to be careful when I buy jeans from now on.
