I was insanely tired at work. I kept on having waking dreams and stuff (that I can't remember). For lunch I walked to Cyclo Pho and got takeout. Although at first I walked in the other direction because I'd remembered seeing a deli over there when I walked from the train station. But when I got to the deli the cupboard was bare. I'm serious; the place had hardly anything in it and there was nobody behind the counter. I left.
This Pho place, however, is really cool. You get a big lunch with soup for under $5.00 (well, exactly $5.00 with tip). The place itself is setup to look like it's an outdoor cafe in some French quarter of Vietnam. You come in through the west wall, which is all windows and door. The south wall (to your right) is painted to look like the face of a building with an alley next to it. The north wall (to your left) is painted like beautiful Vietnamese scenery. And the east wall (in front of you) is where the counter is, but they've put up a faux grass-hutch roof over it so it looks like you're outside the whole time. It's great. The food ain't bad either, just a little oily.
Anyway, I've been copying a ton of CDs onto my computer at work, and then selecting "All Music" and putting that on shuffle. Yesterday I put on some Buckethead and Cibo Matto.
Carrie had already left for her class by the time I got home, so I went out to Panamonica's for din-dins. I didn't know anybody there that night (except for all the people who work there of course), and I didn't stay very long; just long enough for a Crazy Turkey sammitch and a Mike's Hard Lime.
Then I drove to the drugstore and picked up my $0.70 prescription. Why can't they ALL be that cheap? I also bought something for Carrie.
I came home and designed the reply postcard for our wedding invitations. By making it a postcard we don't have to purchase tiny little envelopes for 'em, thus saving on the cash. I also played some more Mega Man 8. I can't get by the first Wily stage. Can you believe that? I spent a lot of time, though, going back through old stages and collecting money for upgrades.
Um, what else? Oh, yeah! I dug through the disgusting garage and found a window fan and a big tall standup oscillating fan. I put 'em both in the bedroom to help keep it cool, baby, 'cause we gots us a heatwave a-comin'! Yee-haw!
I had Carrie go over the postcard design when she got back, then I printed 'em out. I even printed our address on the backside so that doesn't have to be done by hand. She cut them all out with a paper cutter. Then she made nachos while I ate some more of that gigantor brownie thang in bed.
It was actually cool when we went to bed--cool enough that we used the blanket much earlier than normal. And with the fan noise I was able to fall right asleep. Aaah, white noise. My only true friend. Carrie also got a pretty good night's sleep becasue of that thing I'd bought her at the drugstore. It was technically mine to use, but it was really more for her.
SnoreStop Extinguisher!
Yes, that's right. Ever since I came down with that really bad cold a while back, I've done something I never used to do. Snore. But last night Carrie said I actually didn't snore, so let's hear it for this SnoreStop stuff. It had better work; it sure as f**k cost enough.
