Taste the happy, Michael....


Apparently there's nowhere to sleep in Edinburgh. Well, at least there's nowhere REASONABLE to sleep... Either you pay $200 a night or you sleep in a total sty in the outskirts of the city.
I've been looking for a place to stay in Edinburgh for a good month now. I might have to bite the bullet and pay more. Yipes!

On another, more fashionable note: I bought some clothes yesterday. And I know you're all SO very interested....

Actually I was on my way to the bus downtown and on an impulse I decided to look for new shorts (having broken my only pair. That's right... broken...). Instead of buying new shorts (because apparently Nordstrom doesn't sell a single pair of normal, short shorts, the hip bastards that they are), I came out with 2 shirts, some $70 jeans, and some half-way shorts. Call it a birthday splurge. I call it impulse shopping, and it usually strikes about 4-5 times a year. Other than those splurges I'm really rather frugal.

Man this is a boring post.

But you're still reading. HAH!

I could REALLY go for some sushi right now.

By Nordstrom's "fashioable shorts" do you mean the hot-pants or the half-pants? That's all shorts seem to be lately, hot pants so short you see cheeks or "shorts" so long and skinny it looks like you lost the calf section of actual pants in some freak accident.

What is wrong with the world? Does anyone actually look good in those shorts? Inquiring minds want to know.

Even Haley looks weird in those long shorts. Amy, you're exactly right, the lower half is just plain MISSING. The style is so odd.
And Froeline, a splurge every now and then is good for the soul, lousy with the pocket book, but good for the old soul.

Those are called "Formal Shorts". Yes. They have a title.

I'll see if I can remember where I stayed in Edinburgh (and by remember, I mean I'll ask the waif) and get back to you. It was a silly little space, but close to everything and cheap.
