Today I went to the library– always a good place to be. I stopped at the magazines for sale cart and found two issues of National Geographic I wanted to buy. There are always cool pictures in there and I’m working on collecting pictures to make books of interesting things for Morgan. Anyway, National Geographics are a whopping 10 cents each. (I would think they’d be more than other magazines, but for some reason they are cheaper.) So I went to the desk to pay for them, and realized I only had 14 cents in my wallet. And I had no cash because I’d given the $2 I previously had to a homeless guy. Somehow that seemed ironic–that I couldn’t pay 20 cents at the library because I’d given my cash away…? Anyway, how lame is it to not have 20 cents? Luckily there was some change in my car, so all was well. I just had to put them back on the cart while I went to the car, feeling a little silly that I was actually putting my 20 cent items back because I couldn’t buy them.
I also got to check out some older issues of Mothering magazine, which got me pretty excited. I can’t wait to sit and read them. A magazine that actually contains ads for things like cloth diapers and has cover stories such as “Best natural toys of 2007″ (I told you the issues were a little old) and “What Holland can teach us about birth” and “Culinary adventures for Toddlers” sounds right up my alley. Whee!
