I apparently am not as good as I’d like to be at the whole “sleeping in” thing. Yesterday, I was up at 7:15. Today, I was up at 8:15. Oh, well. It gives me time to do things. Exactly “what” those things are, I’m not sure yet.
Yesterday, SaraRules!, her mother and I went up to Park City. The weather was perfect — 70F and sunny, with light breezes. Perfect shopping weather.
Veni. Sumi. Vroomi.
We came. We shopped. We left.
After we got back to town, and dropped of the MIL, SaraRules! and I headed to Downtown Philly Cheesesteaks to get lunch. Cheesesteaks. Birch beer. Tastykakes. I’d definitely call that a lunchtime “win.” Back home for a bit and then off to coffee and dinner.
Today, I’m going to head up to Dr. Volt’s and see Valerie Finnigan at her book signing. There’s a barbecue at Pin-up Girl Espresso, as they are temporarily closing their Cottonwood Heights location while IHC builds a medical center on the 6200 block of Highland… so we’re definitely stopping there. And, I’m also trying to decide whether or not a trip to Almosta Junction is in my plans.
And, tonight: Falstaff.

And, of course, that reminded me of this: - Just a thought: Since a couple of studios are trying to shop superhero-/comic book-related properties, why not change their target stations? Instead of going for NBC/ABC/CBS, why not see about stations who might have a better demographic/target audience? To me, it seems as though USA Networks (“Characters welcome”) and/or SyFy (I still think that was about the most inane “name change” possible…) or even Warner Brothers’ own CW would have been ideal choices for some of the new programming. But that’s just my 2¢ worth.
