This shredder doesn't have a cool name

azurite*yawn* This weekend started out Not Too Bad, unless spending money is a bad thing (and it probably will be, come next month, pre-financial aid check)-- Baba, Grandpa and I went to the Topanga Canyon mall, which is shaping up to be a killer place to shop-- they have an H&M! :D :D :D I went there and got some things, and I also snagged some new things at Victoria's Secret (they were having a SALE, I couldn't resist!). But the mall was so huge, after that, Baba and Grandpa were so tired, we ended up leaving... :(
Baba dropped Grandpa off at home and then Baba and I headed to Target to return the supposedly-faulty shredder we'd gotten the other day. I also picked up my photos-- turns out on camera was from my cousin Adam's bar mitzvah way back when, the other was from Hawaii (my underwater camera), and the last one was the Target cam from the DLP. The pictures look good, though the best ones might take a while to scan in... I was a cheapskate that didn't feel like getting the Kodak CD. As for the shredder, it turns out it wasn't faulty at all-- the manual just CONVENIENTLY neglected to mention that the emergency off switch also happened so SLIDE to the left and right to turn into Power/Auto and Reverse modes, something I didn't know about! I'd been plugging the damn thing into seven house sockets, to no avail, and then bam! At Target, it just works. Color me embarrassed! Anyway, it's working quite well, and there'll be no more worry of Baba and Grandpa throwing out things that have their identity or special info on them.
I have lots to shred myself, once I'm done doing Baba and Grandpa's papers.
