We were shopping fools yesterday. And not the good kind of shopping. More like those errands that were put off because we were playing all weekend. Although we did make the mistake of setting foot into Ikea and left with a houseplant, festive napkins, 2 enormous fake sunflowers, and the tea light candles we went in for. LOL, right? After that we did penance at Target. You know, all those things we go to Target for… Oh, and Richard found some furniture he’d like to put outside on the patio to replace our lawn chairs! Sadly, due to Target’s not wanting to sell ‘floor models’ we weren’t able to procure said outdoor furniture. Richard did however collect everyone’s name and plans to contact the DM. Exciting! Then it was off to the Ralph’s for some much needed foodstuff. We work the next 6 days straight and no one wants to be running off to the grocery… It was there that we saw the Sauce Goddess! Her shirt was delightfully sassy so I asked her to pose for a photo. She was cute! The sauce she was demoing was pretty good too. We picked up a jar, but really we just wanted the shirts!! Will be ordering soon…

After all the excitement, and looking ahead at a very busy work-weekend I decided we should forgo the Blogger Meetup.  It would have been fun to go, but I really needed a quiet night in. Besides the huge Tweet-Up is just around the corner. We won’t be missing that one.

All in all it was a good day off. But ow, my wallet! Still sore! Heh!

Actually the internet came back to me just in time for bedtime, so I got back on the iChat, bid goodnight to any of my lingering peeps and off to bed I went. I slept in super late today too. Richard rarely sleeps in, so when he does I stay in bed too. It’s cozy like that!

Today is just a big ol’ day of chores. We have been working the last 6 days so the house is in just a tiny bit of disarray. I have finished a lot of it, but I still have to vacuum, change the bed, and empty all the trash cans. I really wanted to get my car washed today too. The weather just looks too questionable though. Probably should skip that. Then we have to go to 2 different grocery stores. Is that normal to have to go to more than one store? I understand going to the grocery and to Target. Two actual groceries seems odd. But we are odd. I gues it is about right then. Heh.

Well, I woke up. So that was good. It was about ten thirty. That’s mu usual time when I don’t have to be up early for work. I hate to sleep in later that that, but I rarely will get out of bed on my own before that. It was a normal day. Water, OJ with that Emergen-C stuff, coffee, and some cereal. I skipped the gym today. Actually we skipped the gym, so there was no one to make me feel all guilty. After getting showered and dressed we had a ton of stuff to do. Target, dry cleaners, Starbucks (well, as a side trip), and the aquarium/fish store. Of course there had to be a stop for lunch, so between the Target and the aquarium store we stopped at a taco stand. It was sadly right off the high school and was flooded with emo kids and skaters and stoners. I didn’t know that stoners were still a thing. Huh. So anyway, aside from the hoodlums and the random whaling this one kid in the parking lot received it was a pretty good place. Food-wise anyway.

At the aquarium place I think the fish guy, who was sorta scruffy and wore a belt with his cargo shorts to the side was kinda into my man. It was funny in that not funny way.
