Another day in the valley.

Yesterday was good, for the most part.  Work went well.  The drive home wasn’t bad, either.  For a Friday.

Before heading to Clitorati, I stopped at CompUSAirways.  I needed a now mouse.  Okay, maybe I didn’t exactly “need” it, but I wanted one.  And I got one.  Then, I was off to coffee.  We had a decent turnout.  I also picked up Ray and Cool Hand Luke, for $7.99, each.  On to dinner.  Then home.  I wasn’t feeling exactly top-notch as dinner wound down; by the time I got home, I wasn’t feeling any better.  After an extended visit to the SanFac, I turned in.  Me… in bed… before 1:00 AM… on a Friday.  Go figure.

I slept in this morning.  When I made it out of bed, I simply lounged around the apartment.  I showered and got ready to do not much else for a bit.  A short while later, dropped by and invited me to join her for lunch.  I did.  We went to Hopper’s.  The food, as usual, was good… but the service was lacking – our waitress didn’t seem like she was fully in the game, so to speak.  And we weren’t the only ones to comment on it.  The ladies at the booth next to our table echoed our sentiments.

Leaving the restaurant, we made a stop at F.Y.E…. where I (finally) found a copy of Two Rooms: Celebrating the Songs of Elton John and Bernie Taupin.  I’ve been looking for this, locally, for the past few weeks.  Next stop, Target.  I needed to get cards and gifts for a wedding later in the day.  From there, Circuit City.  I am now the owner of Superman II: The Richard Donner Edition and Superman Returns.
Home to change and get ready for the wedding.  More correctly: The wedding reception.  (This is still Utah, after all.)  I ran into a few people whom I haven’t seen in a long while and and arrived a short while later.

Earlier in the day, asked me if I wanted to catch a movie.  I picked her up and, after a jaunt home to change, we saw Stranger than Fiction.  Will Ferrell is growing on me.  He’s getting rid of the stigma that I had associated with him from most of his tenure on Saturday Night Live.  Slowly, but he’s getting there.

I bailed on breakfast, opting instead to spend a leisurely soak reading Dark Force Rising.

Namaste.
