saturday
Slept a ton this morning, then eventually made my way to the grocery store. There are two grocery stores here locally that are known to me. One is Wegmans, which is super nice and has all sorts of exotic and pricey (yet yummy and seductive) items and lots of prepared food. I would like to take some of my friends who appreciate food and grocery stores, such as Crista, there sometime. The other choice is Acme, which is more what I would think of as a traditional grocery store. Today I chose to go to Acme since I needed more "staple" kinda stuff, and non-food items such as detergent. Also Acme is easier to get to and generally thought to be cheaper.
The drive to the grocery store was fine. Shopping itself was OK too... I was kind of limited in my food purchasing since I am not down with The Zone yet, but we start that Monday. I mainly ended up getting things needed around the house, plus a supply of junk food for today and tomorrow. Yeah I know I should be fasting in anticipation of The Zone but I shopped while hungry and, well, I'm a bad man, y'know? I sort of had the two grocery stores confused in my mind I guess, since some things I thought Acme had were not to be found. Alas, this included clementines.
Two slightly odd things this morning. OK very slightly. First, a Mormon couple who live in the apartment complex here had left notes on - so far as I could see - every mailbox in the complex inviting interested parties to come by and learn about the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints or whatever their formal name is. The note also said something about having videotapes, bibles and genealogy for people. Now I know a lot of Indian-looking folks live here... I am not sure what their religions are or if they will show up in the genealogy charts. Hmmm. Wonder how bored I would have to be to give the Mormons a call? I wouldn't mind a free copy of their bible and I am sure I can give off an unsettling enough vibe to make them wash their hands of me quickly. The other slighty odd thing is that the mail carrier apparently had a package for me but instead of ringing the buzzer, just left a note about it. That happened in Chicago a lot too. Weird. I guess they just don't want to deal with waiting for you to answer the door? Or maybe they're -sniff- avoiding -choke- me -sob- !
I actually feel like just going for a ride for the hell of it, something that I would normally never, ever do. Hm. Maybe I will in a bit. I should take a walk somewhere, too. Also was thinking of going over to the office and taking some pics of the car, since I know that parking lot will be nice and empty today, and seeing if I can spot the kitties. Still not sure if there is anything that I can (or should - would my efforts truly help?) do for them. I bet they're thirsty though, we've had such a drought going on up here. I think I will take some water just in case. Not sure what kind of food I have that would be benign for them. Of course now they might just be eating garbage, unless Mama is catching mice and things for them.
The other thing that I feel like doing is, of course, napping. I should make myself try to draw some. Hm and I do need to exercise. I am just a giant sack of pudding with bones swimming around somewhere inside. Also I must do laundry later. Gee I could actually go to a video rental place too. Haven't done that in forever, since the one outside my apartment in Chicago converted to a pet supply store, in fact. It's a whole new world, just like the song in that Disney movie.
