felt really good in the morning. It was payday, I picked up a 6 inch touch screen monitor from a co worker on the cheap, got a box of cupcakes from the bakesale for the programming team.
Daily highlights, in order of appearance...
1) Stopped in at the Wigles mart for breakfast as I do every morning. As I left there was a HUGE butterfly flopping a bit next to my car. It wasn't hurt but was gorgeous and very large. The wingspan had to have been at least 6 inches. Figuring he would get smushed by a car tire I caught him on the edge of a magazine I was carrying and set him on the sidewalk...That and I didn't want to hit him backing out.
2) Joe, my coworker passed me a piece of paper folded and stapled like an envelope... he told me I had to open it fast. As I opened it he informed me that he farted in it. I admit, I laughed. It was juvenile but it's fun to have juvenile friends some times. Then he told me I should try that on the girls. Somehow I don't think that would go over as well.
3) Went to a great Tai Sushi restaurant for lunch with a co-worker. About half way into the meal an old friend, Frankie Avery walked in and sat down at the bar. I wasn't sure it was her as it had been a few years but she started talking to the chefs and one of the waiters like they were old friends. After my meal I got up and gave her a hug. As usual she was ecstatic to see me and after a moment of chat we swapped business cards.
For a little background, Frankie used to be a radio talk show psychic where she would take calls on a popular AM station and I was one of her first contacts in Knoxville. I helped man the incoming phone calls and was a guest on her show a few times.
Anyhow, it was good to see her.
4) No day isn't complete without giving large amounts of kisses and hugs to my family, especially Jean and Hannah.
5) Had Hannah's sis and her bo over for a movie. We watched 'Hot Fuzz'. Great flick. I notice more things and laugh just as hard every time I see it. Our library now doubles as a movie room with a great position for the projector and big screen. Its a bit of a chore to setup but we have done it more than a few times so it doesn't take too much time.
6) AWESOME BEATING! My back was hurting and sometimes I just need a little abuse. Hannah gave me a long massage and back beating to work out my mussels. I do love that. It sets me up to sleep great.
