The Weekend

 

Things I enjoyed this weekend:

  • My long, pointless, and aimless Saturday drive which ended in Sacramento, and involved taking lots of pictures, some of which I may post some day…
  • The new Target in Albany, with its two levels, its cheap food department, and its seeming lack of long lines…
  • Even more cheap stuff at the new Winco in Vacaville…
  • Lunch at one of the only Chick-fil-A outlets in California…
  • Dinner at Gaspare’s Friday night with Dan, Jamie, and Eugene…
  • The Three Faces of Eve

Things I could have skipped this weekend:

  • Doing emergency repairs on the kitchen sink — using a combination of duct tape and electrical tape — in a valiant effort to keep the damned thing working until we move into an apartment in Charlotte which (we hope) doesn’t have 90-year-old plumbing…
  • The traffic on the Bay Bridge last night as my cheap frozen food from Target and extra Chick-fil-A takeout began wilting in the car…
  • Having to wrap myself in two comforters because I (a) have no circulation to speak of lately, and (b) had no boy to snuggle with…
