The challenge that is shopping...

How hard should it be to go to a store and find what you want? Well, yesterday was the kind of day I dread. A friend and I were shopping at Leon's and it was just sad that we couldn't get someone to help us. We waited and I contemplated passing out and see if that would help. I do wonder about what is the policy at stores if someone were to just collapse. Does the person just stay on the ground for almost an hour before being found or does something else happen? It could well be beyond sad that I have such thoughts, but I do...

In a similar vein, I wonder what will my date tomorrow bring. Could it be a new friendship? Could it be something more? There are times where I feel I just want to be loved. Is that so much to ask? Maybe it is. I do know that I don't mind having a "human crying machine" title, which is a bit of a mixed thing, really. On the one hand, this does mean that I'm more open about being sensitive and tearing up. At the same time, I'm not sure if I should be doing something to handle this differently. It is kind of like that, "Just be who you are," line that drives me nuts at times.
