fun with keyboards
not even going to try to use the caps because the shift key is in an unfamiliar place and when i try to use it, i end up with \\\\ instead. so no caps. sorry.
it's saturday--we're about halfway done with our trip . we spent today on shopping excursions. we started off in camden town at the camden market, which was fun. i found some killer coats and i am hoping that they will still have some type of coat in june when i come back...didn't want to buy one today. i bought a hat instead. it's olive and all distressed and soooo not something i would spend money on back home, but i like it, so bought.
then we went to harrods, which was positively mobbed with touristst and since i'm no longer eating sweets, sort of a bore for me. it was nice to see reactions to it, though. after that we went to lunch at mc'ds. yum. not. two of the adults and i stopped at eat. on the way and got a sandwich, then went to get fries. mcds was crammed full of people and we barely managed to get a table for the group, but we did. i saved half of my sandwich to eat later ebcause i can't eat a whole one of the ciabatta ham and swiss. well, somehow the stupid thing got thrown away when we left. that makes me ill, partly because it cost £3.53 9 (X2 for the dollar amount), but mostly because i was looking forward to eating it tonight when i got back to the hotel. oh well.
then we headed over to covent garden after stopping at the hotel. i wandered around covent garden, all the way back down to leicster square and then finally to soho looking for a foot locker for one of the kids. i thought we would never find it--we got different directions from every person whom we asked. finally, after almost 40 minutes of looking, we found it.
dinner was chinese, but all i would eat was the carby part and two of the kids wouldn't eat any of it, so we went and had dinner at bella italia instead. very good. we had garlic bread and pizza---carbs go better with cheese.
am off to go see blue man group now. it doesn't start until nine. i imagine i will be sound asleep 10 minutes into the show. i'm starting to feel the sleep deprivation today.
