Going online for a half hour turned into hours

My plan for today was to go look for a birthday present for my husband and to go back to my local supermarket to see if there is anything else on sale that we use or need.
Before doing that I decided to go on the computer. I was supposed to go only for about a half an hour, to check on mylot notifications and write a discussion, and check a few other things online.
Here I am hours later still on my laptop and I am not really in the mood to go anywhere anymore. But I have to force myself to go. It will be good for me to get out of the four walls.
At least being online for so long I published a lyric on HubPages and talked to an online friend I've not talked with for a while.

@LovingMyBabies Yep. And I don't want to give him money. Maybe I will just buy him some scratch-off lotto tickets like I did with mom if I won't be able to find anything for him.

When I don't feel like going out, there's nothing that can make me change my mind. LOL If you went out, It's happened to me before when I say I would surf the web for 30 minutes, and then I wind up here for 3 hours lol.

I ended up going to the mall after all. 
Time and time again I tell myself go shower first and then go online but I usually never do that and then it's hours later and I still haven't showered.

I didn't buy him anything. 
Plus, if I would've bought something he'd have seen it because he came to pick me up from the mall. I wanna shop for him when he is not around as I want it to be a surprise. But I did do some grocery shopping at Lidl and saved $10.
