sticky

a lot of the people that are my age-ish will live here a while, leave, then come back. they get stuck. apperently edinburgh is very sticky.
i don't feel stuck yet. though i suppose i could see how it would happen if totally all of your friends were here. it's an intriguing city with plenty of cool places to hang out and one awesome cheese monger shop to visit daily (if you are bowel-worthy). i was wondering the other day if i would end up feeling the stickiness after being here a while, but then realized..
i like it plenty, but there's no way i could stay here indefinately. why? peanut butter. there's only like two kinds of peanut butter in the grocery stores and of those two kinds there's like maybe seven jars of each, tops, on the shelf. and it's none too cheap. i don't get it. until this afternoon i had gone two days without because sainsbury's which is behind jenners across from the walter scott monument that is next to the information/tourist center on princes street near waverly bridge hadn't restocked the shelves with the cheapest brand. absence makes the heart grow fonder - it's true. my long awaited bagette and peanut butter pic nic in the rain (fine scottish weather) was emmaculate.. that's too strong a description, it was delicious though, really really really delicious.

between damp pb sandwiches and free tea in the lounge at the hostel i've been looking for a job and finding the best places to walk to and sit at in the city. meanwhile i'm still working at the hostel to cover accomadation.
thanks for prayers.
i need them because they struggle in the orange juice department here too.
but the chocolate bars and biscuits demolish anything and everything in the US.
