she does not deny her inner love for the thrift store

and neither can alex.

its possible that alex and i had too much fun yesterday. we headed to some thrift stores partly in search of a dresser and partly in search of the rest of those frames that i previously mentioned. yes, its true, i admit that i was sucked into the soap opera that i happen to open up in my living room floor just two days ago. and i couldn't ignore it, i had to find out the rest of the story. you see.. i bought these frames, just for the frames. and happen to open up this lady's life. it still baffles me that someone would just toss away such key mementos of their life like that. it also humors me that i would take a trip to clemson just to go to a thrift store, not to buy frames, but to buy (18 more) the frames just for the cards inside, and i thought heck we could use the frames at some point too, they are nice frames. just a piece of glass with a four small metal clasps gripping the glass.. very classy i must say. and the woman at the checkout register decided that since i was buying so many.. she would give them to me for what.... a quarter a piece! ha. we also found out that on wednesdays at goodwill its not just senior discount day! oh no, for only providing a flash of your student i.d. you too can get a college student discount! of 10% what what. but only on wednesdays. and only if you can show you are an academic student committed to a choice institution for higher education.


yes its true. i am a thrift store junkie.








oh yes, and the guitar hero experience....

alex pretty much rocked it out...

and i got booed off the stage.
