So...let me tell you about my day.

[quirky]

I didn't really have plans, except I wanted to go to the Stepford store because they were having a sale on bookcases and I have so many books that I need to find some shelves fast.

So, first I went to Goodwill...just to peruse furniture and I wound up buying a shelf, some candles and a small garbage can that will match the bedroom.

Then I drove over to Stepford Store...and bought ingredients to make rice krispie bars. M. Didn't find any furniture and decided to go to the grocery store next. I checked out in the express lane and they have DVD's there for 7.50$ The one on top? "The Mask". This used to happen in Roscoe too when I would check out in the express lane (I usually do) I would be looking at "Ace Ventura Pet Detective."

I'm the kind of person who sees things and says, "What are the odds"? Out of thousands of possible DVD's it's a Jim Carrey movie .

Anyway, I left Target and drove towards the grocery store I wanted. I took a little shortcut that had me driving past the NOVA 6 cinema, where movies are $5 including popcorn and a drink.

Guess what's playing? "Fun with Dick and Jane." So I think "Fine, I'll drive past it and see what time "Fun with Dick and Jane" is playing. The window says - 2:45, I look down at my watch and it's 2:35.

So, I thought FINE!!! I'll go see the @#$%#@ movie!

I enjoyed it.

Awhile back I donated a bunch of clothes. It's a good way to get rid of clutter and it still helps someone ultimately.

I was trying (unsuccessfully) to fit all my clothes in my wardrobe yesterday. It's no use....some of them are gonna have to go. I usually put them in the first charity bag that pops through my letterbox for doorstep collection. It's a great idea.

Or them again....perhaps the more 'worthy' items could be flogged on ebay.....

[quirky]

I'm cranky...I just went back to the Kmart with the shoe rack I can't put together (the little screws won't even screw in). I could not find the receipt, but it's Martha Stewart brand....

The lady says unless I wrote a check for it, or put it on a debit card, she can't give me a refund or do an exchange. But I paid cash.

Then she called and talked to the "manager" and the manager said, no exchanges without a receipt.

I actually said, "Tell your manager that you just lost a customer for life. This is CLEARLY your merchandise."

And I drove to Wal Mart. Found a five shelf unit that's supposed to take 2 minutes to assemble. Bought two screwdrivers, plain and Phillips head and some gorilla glue for a lamp I'm working on fixing.

I have bent so many nails this morning. I'm no good at hammering.




Each morning I mentally set myself to get some thing or other done in the apartment.

[quirky]

Today I went to Goodwill again. Bought a roasting pan and a little wall hanging.

My total was 7.77

Then I went to Long John Silver's and there was a sign up on the take out window that said. "Remember, the number is 7."

Who started this dadgum numbers thing?

[fluffy]

my spooky number is 7.......... ..........what on earth did that mean at Long John Silvers???

fluffy

[quirky]

My license plate is Quirky 7.

THEY picked the number, not me.

[fluffy]

yeah....i just wondered what they meant by it...........was it a special deal on food or something??
