Shopping and bad 'folders'...

Boyfriend and I had an outing yesterday. (No, neither of us came out of the closet, it was not that sort of outing so we're firmly staying out right where we are.) We hopped on the train to Leeds. Cost almost nothing and took almost no time - I don't know why I haven't done that before! Will do now though.

It's a nice city, bigger than Sheffield and looks a bit better too. There are less of those "what were the architects thinking" kind of buildings and more stylish [old] ones... Shopping's good as well but that may be cos it's a new place. I loved their market place though - butchers, fishmongers, fruit and flower stands. Wish they had something like that here rather than Castle Market - yuck!

I wasn't in the mood for shopping though and I blame my cold for that. Had to blow my nose every 10 steps so at times I just felt like sitting down on the pavement and never to walk again. But I didn't. Boyfriend went crazy as he doesn't really need any new stuff other than a pair of brown shoes. His closet (without him in it) is bulging and I fear it may break one of these days! He got 2 new pairs of trousers - really nice - and 2 new shirts - super nice - but my God is he slow in the changing rooms! I felt the years pass by.

What really annoys me (among many things but this one particular during yesterdays shopping) is when the cashiers cannot (will not?) fold the clothes properly before putting them in a bag. This girl just sort of rolled them up and shoved them in a bag when she ought to have used 2! This may seem like a stupid thing to get annoyed by - people are starving and dying in the world - but it did annoy the heck out of me and I just walked away. This "walking away" business proves I wasn't feeling very well. If I had been my normal self I most surely would have told her to redo it. I'm a bitch. I know. But I didn't ask for creased clothes. If I had wanted creased clothes I would have bought some. But these clothes were Boyfriend's and he didn't seem to mind as long as I kept calm so I guess the girl will go on working and just shoving other people's clothes in too small bags. She's on my "don't like" list and will probably stay there forever! I'm a sad petty girl...
