Accumulating Junk

I have never been shopping so much in my life. Granted, I’m not much of a shopper. TJMaxx on a Tuesday morning is about all I can handle; I have the patience of a 3rd grade boy in ballet class when it comes to shopping, but still, I have put my record to extreme shame. Every morning we sit down, write a list of crap we need to do and buy, and then we spend the late morning and early afternoon tracking down such nonsensical items as “second back up, third type of bug spray-wipes only” and “gluten-free, sugar- free, vegan something or other for crazy, annoying cousin we only invited because she’s family” and fighting with the people at Staples to get the gosh darned copies right. It is pretty embarrassing when the Walmart greeter calls you by name and the supermarket check-out person asks you how your last purchase from yesterday turned out. Whatever. It’s my wedding and I don’t have a wedding planner so here I am.

Hint to future brides: expand your credit limit a couple months before your big day.
