Am I a bad shopper?

Scott and I went to the mall. *shudders visibly*

I went in with the intention of snagging some dress pants on sale, and didn't find any stores that weren't having sales. There was just the two issues of a) they weren't on sale enough or b) they were too long. I'm pretty durn short.

I found a decent-looking pair at Gap that I'm either going to have to roll up at the cuffs of or have hemmed.

I've also been looking for a pair of black pumps for a while and checked out a few stores for a pair that didn't look like they fell out of Sarah Jessica Parker's reject stash. Finding nothing I was willing to spend money on, I gave up. I guess I'll try web-shoeing tomorrow. *sigh*

I had a $15 Pottery Barn gift card from the office gift swap of last week. Let me tell you: $15 bucks doesn't get you very far at Pottery Barn, so my options were pretty limited considering I'm not in need of discounted placemats and Santa-patterned napkins. I spotted at the front a galvanized bin of paperwhite narcissis bulbs that were discounted 50% to $4.49 per bag. I bought three. I fully suspect that very few of the bulbs are viable as some of them upon inspection felt sort of soft, but I may get a few sprays of flowers out of them.

We went into Williams Sonoma to see if they carried travel mugs (no). Does anyone else feel like they need to make reservations and wear a jacket and tie to go into that store?

My feet hurt. I think I have blisters. That's what I get for wearing three-inch heels for 13 hours.
