$$: Shepard Fairey “Yes, We Did” Bumper Stickers
Total Spent Today: $3.00
MoveOn.org — $3.00
In September I bought six of the now-famous Shepard Fairey “Hope” Obama bumper stickers. Today I snagged five stickers featuring Fairey’s follow-up “Yes We Did” artwork.
The “Hope” stickers are all sold out. I’m thrilled that I managed to score some of this new design before it, too, sells out.

$$: Church & the Mall
Total Spent Today: $158.98
Talk about both ends of the spectrum. I spent the morning at church with both kids and the late afternoon at the mall with The Daughter. Sadly, today was a Shopping While Impaired (SWI) day — the first in a very long time. I still can’t tell whether I’m facing a major Fibromyalgia flare-up or [...]
$$: Starbucks, Pizza & an animated Zombie-Hand-in-a-Bowl
Whoo Hoo. I actually had a car at my disposal today. This is, I believe, the first Saturday in about two months that I’ve had a car to use. The Daughter is still fighting some sort of back-to-school-sniffles and since there were no tournaments and no college fairs to attend today, she stayed home, cleaned [...]
$$: Gas, Co-Pay, & Political Donation
Doctor Co-Pay — $25.00
I started my day the way everyone should — with a 20-minute cooling-my-heels session in my doctor’s office.
The reason for the appointment: to get a referral/prescription for a new sleep study test. I wasn’t sure which type of sleep study I needed (a couple of years ago I had two tests — one that [...]
$$: Bumper Stickers
The Husband drove me to my check-up with the surgeon today (although I’ve again stopped the Vicodin, I’m still way too much under the influence to consider driving). I expected to have a co-pay for the appointment but nope. I guess the check-up was built into his surgical fee.
When I got home, I found an [...]
Day 207: Political Donation & Food
Obama for America — $10.00
What is this, my third or fourth donation? I’ve been meaning to donate again for the last few months but never seem to get around to it. I know it will never happen, but I threw my $10 into Obama’s pot so I’d have a chance at his latest “dinner with [...]
Day 148: Religion, Politics, & Food
Church — $15.00
Weekly offering.
Old Navy — ($12.91)
Returned the two packages of men’s size small briefs. I was talking to the manager about something else and mentioned my frustration about
the fact that Old Navy’s boy’s size 18 pants have an inseam that is 4″ shorter than Gap’s boy’s size 18 pants;
Old Navy doesn’t offer an waist/inseam [...]
