- I didn’t know they still did this but today at the drugstore, besides requesting a price check over the loudspeaker, the cashier actually described the product as well for everyone in the store to hear. Lucky for me it was only a bottle of hair conditioner, but I thought they only did that kind of thing in movies or t.v. shows, for comedy…? It also got me thinking as to whether or not she would have done that if the item, were say, a tube of KY Jelly, or a value box of magnum condoms…???
Above: It probably wouldn’t be this funny in real life…

This coming week is National Pizza Week in America. The holiday was celebrated last November in the UK for the purposes of “…increas[ing] awareness of pizza as a mealtime favourite…,” according to their Pizza, Pasta, & Italian Food Association. Since when was pizza not a ‘mealtime favourite’? Too bad I gorged myself on Pizza Hut earlier this week – I got so sick that the thought of eating pizza, at least for now, just does not sound good to me. Still, it’s a hell of a holiday.

Maybe it was the aforementioned, pizza-binge, or maybe it was the surprisingly painful renal ultrasound I had the very next day, but I felt sick this whole week, suffering from a lot rare migraines. It was probably the ultrasound as it left my whole middle sore; I felt like I’d gotten beaten up. Those ultrasound technicians push down hard – I didn’t know if she was trying to get an image of my kidneys or if she was trying to straight up cut them out of me.

I’m sincerely considering getting a personal loan from Virgin Money. Obviously, I wouldn’t get a loan to pay off other loans or bills – that just continues a vicious cycle of debt. I would definitely use it to get myself started and self-employed, but any kind of money lending is always suspicious to me. That’s weird as my father works as a loan broker – I think I know too much of what actually goes on and how things really work. But Richard Branson’s cheery, forward-looking outlook helps.
