If only the fashion police could see me now...
I pulled on whatever was lying around when I got out of bed this morning. Long chartreuse shorts, and aqua tee shirt and hot pink & purple stripped footies. Packed together with an awesome head of bed-hair and I can see more discerning people spazzing out with apoplectic seizures. Awesome!
I had breakfast and I'm killing a little time marveling at the weak sunshine (it was supposed to be stormy all day) while I wait to go to my plasma appointment (gotta put in another raffle ticket for that $500 gift certificate). I got a look at the box for that flat screen TV they're giving away. I though maybe it would be a 20-something incher? Nope. 47 inches! WTF? A couple of weeks ago the electronics department re-worked their TV wall, which is a giant undertaking. It begins down with the little 15" models (right next to the 19" that I bought) and works its way all the way to the end to the new, whopping! 80" TV. I could hang that sucker on the wall opposite my balcony doors (if the wall was that big) and the people living behind my apartment complex could use it as a drive-in theater! It makes me cross-eyed to stand 20 feet away from it and watch. It's stupidly huge. Who the hell needs an 80" TV!? Although I suppose if I had a home theater it would be nifty. The 70" one is only slightly less idiotic. Remember when people were really chuffed that they had a 36" TV?
While it's still cool I have the oven cranked up and I'm roasting a couple of heads of garlic (it smells absolutely divine!). It'll cool while I'm gone and then I'm going to make some Roasted Garlic Hummus when I get home. I can't have flat-bread (no one has come up with a low carb one that I know of) so I'll use my low-carb tortillas (better than many regular tortillas I've tasted). After all they use the same ingredients: flour and water and a little salt. Plus veggies, of course. A great low carb snack. I wish I had my za'atar already to sprinkle on it. It should be here on Tues. Maybe I'll have some hummus left by then. If not? Another batch!
OK, time to get ready to sell my bodily fluids.
And the sun is still shining!
Later!
