Panic shopping
Friday, January 22nd, 2016 06:38 pmWhy does everyone buy bread, milk, and eggs before a snowstorm?
For my part, I typically buy things I expect to want in the next few days, probably in larger quantities than usual to make sure I don't run out before I'm willing to leave the house. So no milk for me, because I never drink the stuff. Haven't bought any eggs this week because I have half a dozen now and I tend not to eat more than one a day. If anything is different about my shopping before a storm, it's that I buy lots of chocolate. I'm going to need those calories, after all!
Oh, and I bought a cheap pair of boots a few days ago. Don't know if they'll be any good for walking, but they'll provide more protection from the cold and the snow than the worn-out and well-ventilated running shoes I've been wandering around in lately.
I have half a dozen library books checked out. Decided not to borrow any DVDs. Here's hoping I won't regret that decision.
