a very good day was had by all
hmm, let's see how many posts i can make today.
after abigail_m and i picked poeticdream up from work i tasted a divine concoction she prepared for me: 2x sipping chocolate + 1 shot of espresso + half and half. omfg good! (and it would have been $$$ if i had had to pay for it; ahhh the perks of having a beautiful barista babe for a wife)
we went to mall*wart and bought cat food, random stuff we didn't need, and wipes for abby. we then sojourned over to tj maxx and found some mixing bowls we liked, a pink argyle towel for abby, and a bowl with a kitty inside it. the clerk at the register scanned the towel and the kitty bowl. that's it. she bagged it all. i, incredulously, paid and failed to hide my excitement as we left. eight mixing bowls for free! yay!
after this bit of serendipitous good luck, we went to goodwill and i bought way too many pants (frank can have some of my extras) and OMG robin bought me an awesome retro IBM MUG, shaped like a computer and monitor! seriously! (pictures forthcoming).
then, dinner time rolled around, finding us at suzuki's sushi (the best li'l sushi shop in town). the damage ($53.57) included:

- unagi nigiri
- breakwater maki (tuna and avocado)
- salmon sashimi
- shittake nigiri (yes, shittake mushrooms on top of rice-heavenly)
