Timelies all!
Last time I had spare keys made, it was at the nearby Home Depot. They haven't been used yet. (I made them to give to the pet sitter who was going to give Boots her meds while we were away, but Boots passed on before that trip so the keys came back. I then gave a set to someone at the vet hospital who was going to look in on the kittens while we were away for the weekend, but she flaked on us. Luckily the kittens were ok, but I asked for the keys back)
I usually go to Ace Hardware for key cutting--they almost always do a good job, and if they do screw it up, they'll do new ones for free.
I can't wait to get out of here and pick up my new digital camera that's currently waiting for me at my apartment manager's office!! Oh, and I also think I have the oranges my dad's giving all of us kids for Xmas waiting (they said I had two packages there, and that's the only other thing I can think of that's coming via the post office). My very first digital camera--I'll be taking lots o' pics soon!
I just had to raid a coworker's snark drawer to avoid going to McDonald's. So instead I ate a mini bag of chips and some sort of diet granola bar.
I got my last keys at Ace. They had a number of fun designs.
snark drawer
I want one of these. (Yes, I know it was a typo, but...)
I think you have a snark drawer, dear.
O hivemind, why does garlic sometimes turn sort of aqua-green when you cook it? I think we've talked about this. The garlic bread looks so strange...
I drove away from one this weekend when the drive-through line wasn't moving fast enough.
Only reasonable. "Fast Food" needs to be at least one of those two things to be worth it.
Since I am wearing heels at work again, I bought myself some new ones - just got them in tonight: [link]

The first pair seems pretty comfortable as I am wearing them around the house tonight (I wore the 8 year old pair of black pumps that they are replacing all day today and my feet were not feeling great by 5, so this is a good sign). But I am in love with the brown ones. I really wish they had them in black also. or maybe a two-tone.
Post office
still
has not delivered my Christmas and birthday presents. I am ready to declare war.
Got keys cut at Ace easily. Tested them all on the way in. They work great. Clerks were funny boys. Quite unlike the jackass on a smoke break outside his mattress shop who told me to smile.
It was raining and the temperature was dropping, so rather than shoe shop, I went to Binny's and got some fancy sake.
