I just walked into Old Navy, wearing a polo shirt, and bought six more polo shirts. What an uninteresting person I must have seemed to that cashier.

Posted in 'Dear Diary' with tags 'natalia, mp3, shopping'

Yesterday I took Natalia MP3 player shopping. She's been dutifully saving her allowance for five or six months, and she had finally saved up around $150. It was past my 10am bedtime, but she was really excited about going to get it, so I agreed to take her to buy it. We discussed what features she wanted, and at first it sounded like the iPod Shuffle would be an acceptable compromise, so we headed to CompUSA, the only store that had the Shuffle in stock. When we got the store and she saw it in person, though, she decided she wanted a player with a screen. I was impressed that she was mature enough to make that decision, even though that probably meant we'd have to mail-order it instead of taking it home that day (there isn't much selection in PR, since there's no Best Buys or Circuit Cities).
