Season 7, 8 and 9 on Scrubs on DVD.

[insert obligatory "But Scrubs ended at season eight..." joke here]

(There actually are at least a few good things about the Scrubs: Med School season - Kerry Bishé, Michael Mosley, and Eliza Coupe, for example.)

More groceries, more gas for the car and a few more STAR WARS action figures.

I have been feeling nostalgic about Jim Henson lately, so I just bought Labyrinth and The Dark Crystal on blu ray. I'm looking forward to the special features.

Just_Bob · April 11 2012, 04:19 AM

The new iPAD and a birthday gift for my former girlfriend's daughter.

Praetor_Shinzon · April 11 2012, 05:05 AM

bought the latest issue of Famous Monsters, the one with a Dark Shadows cover.

A Starbucks drink right before I checked out of my hotel in Baltimore.

^ hope you had fun.

For some reason, I've been hankering for fast food these past couple of days. Must be the pink slime thread, making me hungry. Anyway, I bought a Whopper for lunch yesterday, and a Quarter-Pounder with Cheese today. I think I've satisfied the craving for now. At least, my heart is now whimpering quietly in a corner. That's the same thing, right?

Just purchased 7 cotton hipsters from Soma; they were having a sale.

I may look like a horror show on the outside, but underneath it all, I have on pretty undies.

Food. And a couple Easter-ish things on sale for 70% off.

I have to admit, the mental image of you sitting there in your elegant clothes, eating that crap, is quite disturbing.

Picked up some stuff to make a proper beef stir-fry at the H.E.B.

Well, both the clothes and the occasional fast food lunch are treats, so they are complementary in a way. And helpfully, total burger intake is limited by the clothes, as too many burgers and the clothes won't fit. It's a gastro-sartorial homeostatic negative feedback loop...

Thanks, I sure did! I saw two games in Baltimore (Camden Yards) and three in Philadelphia (Citizens Bank Park). Had a great time at all of them. (Also: in Baltimore I met the totally awesome Tora Ziyal.)

Now that's two ballparks I can cross off the list...next stops: Atlanta, Tampa Bay, Miami.

Latest purchase: coffee and egg/bacon sandwich at Philadelphia airport.

My stone (6 yards) arrived after work last night. Took about 2 hours to shovel and rake. Unfortunately there wasn't enough stone to do the picnic table area (which will require another 2 or so yards).

Here's the before.

And the after...

and yes... my bones are sore this morning
