Today's News and Weather Report
Feb. 26th, 2010 09:21 pmThe weather was utterly gorgeous out; it was about 40F -- sunny and warm. :) Of course, the weather will be kind of iffy over the weekend but next week is supposed to be nice as well. Fingers crossed! After doing Serious Stuff, I indulged in a lunch at one of the local Chinese places in Hastings.
From there, I decided to go and visit Auntie and Uncle in GI, since I haven't seen them since before last Christmas and I do mean that literally. Auntie was happy to see me and so we chatted for about an hour. They seem happy enough and are doing ok, which is all that can be said for people who are in their mid-90's.
Then I went to one of the book stores there and *finally* picked up a copy of "Kushiel's Dart." I only had enough put aside for that one but they have all of the others in the series in stock, so I will probably pick them up later on. They also had some manga titles but I didn't find any copies of "Monster" or "Descendants of Darkness", and "Ai No Kusabi" needs to be special ordered.
Stupidly, I managed to lose the case for my cell phone. I haven't been any place so I haven't been carrying it and the place where I keep (kept) it is very close to where my wastebasket is -- and I'm pretty sure it fell in there when I didn't notice. Last Wednesday was pick-up day (the last pick-up of the month), and I usually only put my dumpsters out once a month... and yeah, it probably went. There is a very slim chance I might find it but I am not very optimistic. So, I bought another case -- but I honestly don't like it was well as the first one.
And last but hardly least -- Serious Stuff (aka the legal mess) might be coming to an end -- I hope!!!
