I just went to a deli (not my normal one), and I wonder if it was being robbed, or shaken down, or something. When I walked in, there was an older white guy standing across from the counter, but he wasn't talking to the deli guy, and the deli guy seemed nervous, or maybe just weird, and the vibe was just odd. Probably I'm reading stuff in, because I don't know what that guy is usually like (it took him forever to add up my order, but maybe it always does?), but I do wonder what was going on.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I think i'm getting another lovely spring cold. not to mention that i had to take my car in yesterday for an oil change and get the air conditioning looked at because it wasn't blowing cold. i have a feeling it's going to turn out to be an expensive overnight stay for my baby. apparently i need new brake pads for the front, new windshield wipers and i apparently have some kind of valve leak. there goes my stimulus check, i guess. fuck.
New brake pads and windshield wipers should be cheap, tiggy. Like, $100. If they're charging more than that, take it somewhere else, unless it's more than just the pads (was it squealing? Do you need new rotors or calipers too?)
That sounds creepy, Jesse...but I wish there were a deli around here where I could get a good bagel or egg sandwich!
I officially know I am old when I am *proud* of myself for sleeping until 10AM. LAME.
I slept until 9:30, which almost never happens to me. Dee-lish. I shall be well-rested for Indy tonight!

yeah, but add that to the other crap they've done and it's probably going to be more than i want. the diagnostic to see what was wrong with the air conditioning alone was going to be $125. *sigh*
The ceiling of the our usual cafe fell in last night - we had to go to panera for breakfast. Which was ok, but they don't know my coffee order, so I had to think.

Color me OLD. And man is my body still tired. Geeesh.
Friday I found the last gas station in the area selling gas for $3.71. Someday, I'm going to look back on this day and sigh for bygone times.
I just filled up for $39 and change. Not because of low gas prices, mind you; because my gas tank is only 10 gallons. And believe me, I'm thankful my gas tank is only 10 gallons. Sheesh!
No Y for me this morning as I was having spasms in my shoulders. mac's playdate with one friend, turned into 2 friend, so I was on the subway with 3 boys this morning - oh my. now they are playing (they were supposed to watch a movie, but they vetoed) and I have make some food, done the dishes, and am cleaning up the kitchen.
