Last Friday

And this Friday too. Aren't some people lucky?

What Did We Do?

How did we live fulfilled lives before the age of the Internet? My life has meaning, knowing that I can download two complete albums (one somewhat obscure) for $16.98 at 12:10 am, in my pajamas, while sitting on my bed.

Granted, I would be better off if I were fast asleep, but where's the fun in that?

It's Friday

So how do you think a single, slightly-eligible girl would spend her Friday night? Mine was typical.

Took a nap in the late afternoon, after watching a taped episode of Law & Order (library not open today, but I worked anyway, went to the dentist and Target)

Went out at 7pm for a visiting teaching appointment and was stood up

Stopped at Auto Zone to buy some fuses, and at the gas station to buy gasoline

Spent a happy 30 minutes at Publix, wandering the aisles and seeing the sights

Came out of Publix to find the freezing precip had started

Went through McDonald's drive-through for a diet soda as a Friday Night Treat

Am now home, preparing to "cook" steel cut oats for dinner

Will later probably watch some tv whilst picking up the front room, in preparation for my 9am visitors tomorrow

Hmm. Wonder why I'm still single.
