I thought I'd lost my wallet. After the marathon, SO and I went out for lunch, and when I went to pull my wallet out of my purse, it wasn't there. (Luckily he had his anyhow.) I knew I'd had it Saturday, since I paid for groceries, but it could have fallen out at the last store, in my car, SO's car, the van belonging to one of the marathon relay ( Read more... )

I have made an appointment at a spa, whee! The afternoon of Saturday 2 April will be devoted to physical pampering, thanks to relatives who gave me money for my birthday. *g ( Read more... )

A few days ago I saw a car with a Rhode Island license plate. Not a common sight around here, I can tell you. I see Hawaii and Alaska ones every now and again, but I can't recall seeing RI here before ( Read more... )

I look at them, and I think, "Organ donors!" (I also have seen 1 motorcyclist driving solo, with a helmet and jacket, although going about 10 mph over the limit ( Read more... )

I'm having it done at the dealer's where I bought the car (yay coupons) which is in the city where Other University is located, so it made sense to just come down early. Once that's finished I'll go find some lunch somewhere and then hang out maybe at the mall or a bookstore for a while; my parking ( Read more... )

So, buying the car yesterday took rather longer than expected, but we did finally get it done. ( Car stuff )

It's not all that hot, but it's terribly humid, has sprinkled/showered intermittently much of the day and will continue to do so for the next few days. And I just got back from a 3-mile walk with Juno, who doesn't seem to mind the humidity. This is the worst weather in a way, cool enough that the AC doesn't really kick on, but the humidity makes it ( Read more... )
