STAYCATION - DAY 4

First things first. Thanks Jeff for the comment. I knew you would just LOVE what I said about "The Dark Knight".

I started the morning off in the usual way. With a drive to Dunkin Donuts for my large Hazelnut and paper. Then it was another walk around the prom with my 90's Walkman. But instead of Teddy and Meredith I listened to the competition. I felt much better about what we do after listening for a good hour and a half. Phew...we don't suck as bad as some. No...I won't name names.

Today was another errand running day. Wal-Mart day. I go 2-3 times a year and load up on the essentials...toilet paper, paper towels...ya know - that stuff. I shopped enough to get me to my next time off in December! Ahhhhh, the fun never ends for Lori's staycation!

Then I reorganized my bathroom cabinet (imagine a Virgo PMSing and you'd understand how that was fun for me). I also got the call from my mechanic (did I mention I dropped off my truck to get an oil change and look over?) It's six years old and I can tell it needed some TLC. Actually it needs about 750.00 worth off TLC and brake pads. This is turning into an expensive staycation.

I went to Silly's for dinner. I love that place. I sat outside for the first time, had a beer and left my "to go" order of chocolate cake on the table. My waiter could not have been nicer and chased me down. Phew...I'm having that later.

Tomorrow is haircut day and then Brenda Broder, (you know Brenda) is coming over for dinner! I'm making spice rubbed grilled chicken with a risotto and veggies...oh and salad. She hates salad...I'll eat hers.

And one more thing. I had a dream that I was at a food festival with tables upon tables upon tables of food. But I got there late and the only things left were jello, canned corn and cereals. How much would that suck!?
