*WHEW* What a busy day!!
Time to relax... hold that thought. Let me pour a glass of wine... be right back.
Well. Never mind.
I have the wine, and a glass... but no cork screw. A lovely white wine, chilled, just waiting for me to open and enjoy... and I can't. I have been thwarted.
Bah. Figures.
Oh, well. I suppose I could dash down to the store and get a new cork screw... but really? I'm tired. It's been a busy day, and I really don't feel like "dashing" anywhere at the moment. I guess my lovely chilled Pinot Grigio will just have to wait for another day...
So. This morning I woke up and got dressed. Had to make a trip to the laundromat. The clothes situation was rather desperate. I usually do laundry twice a week, but I only did it once last week, and that was seven days ago. There was a mound of laundry, a veritable mountain of clothes, that really needed to be washed. And that chore is mine, so I went and did it.
I called Shanna while I was folding said clothes (after they had been washed and dried, of course) and you know what? I left a whole dryer full of clothes behind. I kid you not. I carried what I thought was everything out to the car, and left. I didn't realize my error til much, much later.
But I'll get to that in a moment.
After I got home with (most of) our clothes, it was right back out again, this time to do the shopping. Alpha and Beta tagged along, on the hope that they would get a "treat". Sucker that I am, I bought them vanilla ice cream cones from McDonald's. What can I say? They're too cute, sometimes, to say no to! Aaaand the cones were only .59 cents each... so an easy request to grant, right?
We did the shopping at one store, then on to Trader Joe's, quite possibly my favorite food store ever, and got a few things that you can *only* get at Trader Joe's. Then it was onto the Farmer's Market, where I bought some nectarines, apples, and plums. Oh, and a bag of baby carrots.
Then it was home again, home again, jiggedy jig. Just in time to get lunch made. Woo.
It was then, after lunch, that it dawned upon me that HOLY CRAP I left a load of clothes at the laundromat!! I tore out of there like a bat out of hell, jumped in the car, and proceeded to hit EVERY SINGLE RED LIGHT between me and the laundromat. I am not kidding.
Well, my mad dash turned out to be for naught since my clothes were, several HOURS later, still where I had left them. In that same dryer. And guess what... they weren't totally dry, either.
Whatever!!
I was just glad that they hadn't been made off with by some clothes stealing bandit. I mean, I have some fly threads.
Haha
Anyway, I came home and decided to dye my hair.
It wasn't as impulsive as it sounds. Since I did, in fact, get it cut.. oooo you haven't seen it yet, have you? Check it out!
Cute, no?
Anyway, I had already decided that after I got it cut, I was going to dye it. So I did. Earlier this afternoon. It's very dark now... darker than it was, anyway :)
After THAT, The Man and I decided to take a little trip to the mall. Just to walk around a bit, check stuff out. So we did that. And we got Vanilla Bean Frappucinos (sp??) from Starbucks (mmm tasty). The Man also got a book, Bloodheir by Brian Ruckley. It's the second book in his Godless World series.
Then we came home, and dinner was made.
And now I am writing this. Sans wine, since I was thwarted and all.

I'm glad you called whilst you folded said laundered duds!
Your hair is too cute ;) I bet it's soft. And smells good. I love the smell of freshly dyed hair. Too bad I'm not there :(
Cute do!
And wow, what a crazy busy day. I'm going to stay home and do nothing just to balance that out.
Okay, so I was already going to do that...
