“Drove downtown in the rain, 9:30 on a Tuesday night…”
Tuesday - 12 July 2011
Yesterday was the world’s longest Monday ever. Okay, that might be a slight exaggeration, but it was long. I think that was mostly due partially to the fact that I split my day to go to a doctor’s appointment with SaraRules! (She and both kids are doing well, by the way.) While I was out, I made a few stops:
- The Train Shoppe (What?! I was downtown already. Don’t judge me!)
- 7-Eleven, to partake in 7-11 Free Slurpee Day, and
- RubySnap, to pick up a few cookies. Tami, RubySnap’s owner and Director of Appetites, also introduced me to Nina, their Coffee Toffee cookie, topped with chocolate and a brazil nut:
I also made a quick stop at home before making it back to the office, where the clock taunted me for the next… six… hours…
After work, SaraRules! and I went to dinner at Pawit’s Royale Thai Cuisine. We ran a couple of errands - including failed stops at local 7-Elevens to partake of more free Slurpee goodness - before heading home for a lazy night watching Top Gear.
Before bed, I decided to do some sit-ups. My abs still hurt from Friday’s workout. Feh.
Today is also the birthday of my friends: Jake, Natalie and Paul:
This morning’s iTunes musical oleo included:
- Barenaked Ladies - Brian Wilson
- Orgy - Opticon
- Parliament - Testify
- Jonathan Coulton - Shop Vac
I consider that another good musical start to the day.
