So yesterday I started some sad drivel about how boring my life is and that work sucked and ….blah blah blah….
Today, after a great night’s sleep and feeling a little bit better (I say this as I sneeze), life is seeming so much sweeter. I think someone snuck in late last night and did something to my coffee…..because it is a gloomy gloomy day in Washington! The hills in the distance have a fresh white powder and the air is crisp. I want to get in my little red rocket and just drive but with gas being a low (hahaha) $3.37 I hesitated after my errands and find myself instead looking longingly out the window as I type this….I have half a mind to bundle up and go finish this on the back stoop.
I got in a great chat with my best friend over coffee this morning, my wonderful workout after made me aware that I was not as healthy as first thought (I was wheezing at one point) and then I had shopping to do! I went first to the post office to grab some stamps and mail off a long overdue package. There I had this very sweet guy fluster over having to share the counter as I loaded my flat rate box, it was cute but he was way too young. Next I went on to Big R, where I was told had the biggest selection of workboots in the area for reasonable prices. There I found and purchased my first pair of steel toed boots….with pink trim…. *grin* I followed this quick foot purchase by heading to payless to see if they had any cheap cute summery shoes…they had nothing!!!! Black chunky slip resistant work shoes…. Yuck!
Last on my list was a stop at the VC to grab a post card of the area because I haven’t found a single one anywhere else….and I wanted to pick up some Vivacious Vicky to drink and send out. Well, they have stopped carrying Vivacious Vicky but the lady convinced me to pick up this Dark Star that she called “truth serum”. “Let it breath if you think it’s a little strong, that will bring out the berry flavor more”….lady you’re talking to the wrong person…and then I stated that one of the girls at work had married the guy that owned one of the wines….and she told me no….um I happen to know the girl didn’t lie….whatever…
After grabbing the postcard I needed to send off to a 3rd grade class I decided it was time to hit up the Ortho people for some more supplies. I am sitting at a light, singing along to Leanne Rimes, tapping the steering wheel, lost in my own little world when I look over to my left and this guy in the turn lane smiles at me….I just kept on singing….glad I made your day buddy. I missed my chance at the ortho place, they had all gone for the day, which means I get to struggle with the wire brushes that they gave me last time….that suck! Oh well. Anyways, that is the end of my small little story.

"One Way Ticket?" :-D
That's always my go-to LR song.
I'm glad someone snuck in with some happy stuff for your coffee: I had to go out for coffee this morning, but it was worth it. Though I prefer Friday morning coffee to Saturday morning coffee ;)
It struck me the other night that we are getting old, though: we used to have "drinks night" to talk, now we have coffee! LOL
Also, for the record, I don't think your life is boring. Shopping, walks along the Greenway are planned, working out, etc. But I understand the desire for something "different."
*head hug*
