Braved the outlet mall which wasn't too bad, all things considered. Got a couple of shirts, a new pair of Lucky jeans (I'm afraid my One True Jean may be discontinued-- *sob*) and a wicked sexy pair of Miu Miu sandals on ridiculous discount.

Not a bad haul and I got to kill time with Mom. Only had to roll my eyes a few times as she took something like three phone calls from my father.

It seems odd to me that people go around looking to be offended. It happens enough with out looking to be offended.

There's been a major cock-up on our babysitting leaving us with no sitter for tonight. I've run down my emergency list and have not takers. We might be screwed.

Christmas stuff plastic bin #1 is packed and closed.

I am trying to coordinate a tomorrow wherein: mac goes to a friend's for a playdate, I and friend go to a spa for manis or pedis, and then I get my FSA stuff figured out so I can spend any money I have left. The spa won't answer their phone and I can't find all my FSA docs. Maybe in my search for paperwork, I can fill another bag or two of crap to get rid of.

Read All About It… Please!

The most literate cities in the US:

Emmett would be happy to give reviews on his many DS games. (He's currently loving Mario Kart.) He would also like to point out that when you buy Pokemon games (like Ruby or Pearl) used they often come loaded with wonderful, wonderful Pokemon from the previous user.

Mmmmm, I just had steak and eggs for lunch. FiL sent me home with several pounds of prime rib and I cut off a hunk and made it into littler chunks and pan fried it in butter and tossed in an egg and had it with toast and it was the decadence.

I mean, there are fancier things to have for breakfast and I've had most of them at Commander's Palace. But nothing makes me feel more like Diamond Jim Brady or a 19th Century Railroad Tycoon than steak and eggs.
