Friday The 13th!

.. and all that jazz...

Jk. That sutff doesn't really bother me.
... But just for safe measures, Sydni and I didn't do anything intensely precarious tonight. Haha.

The Friday fun started at work, when we did our weekly Friday lunch. This week it was Rusty Bucket, which was a sure blast from the past. I've not been there since I lived in Norwood... which was just, yenno, a mere six years ago. [Holy cow]. Anyway, not mad.. it was delicious, and Elisa, Nikki and I promised we wouldn't speak in detail of how carniverous we looked inhaling our lunch. Hah.. (:

rusty bucket veggie burger... y-u-M.

ahhhhhdore her.

After work, it was straight to get Sydni and off to do some grocery shopping. It's always an adventure with her, and tonight, because of a couple of select things that I couldn't find at Target or really just anywhere else, I settled on Wal-Mart. Sydni gave me her own shopping list:

[As read aloud to me from her "list," which was actually a {beautiful} purple circle with polka dot spots inside it.. apparently each signifying a grocery item. I've yet to decipher this code.. but I digress...]

1. Bread
2. Peanut Jelly [yes, the blend of two great things]
3. Pasketti [spaghetti]
4. Carrots & Ranch Dressing
5. Yogurt
6. Waffles, but "not the kind with spots" [aka blueberries or chocolate chips]
7. A castle. Maybe next time on that one.
8. A pony.

We didn't get the castle, but we may or may not have made some freely adapted arrangements for a pony.. (:

Aaaaaaaand, I almost failed to mention: today was the first day that I walked outside before work to air that just felt like fall. You know.. that crisp pinch and that leafy smell, or whatever the scientists will call it. I realized it's finally turning seasons, and while that means many things, the first and most important thing is that it's indicative of BEANIE SEASON!
-- What's beanie season? Easy: It's a span of time in which the weather will allow the wearing of beanies. Haha. I refrained all summer, since I already have a solar panel built onto the top of my head. Wearing a beanie on top of that would probably melt me.



beanie season!!!

The evening consisted of Syd and I sticking close to the house; it's been bike riding, bubble blowing and coloring. She's fighting off sleep now, and I think it's time I help her - and me - get some shut eye. Tomorrow's soccer practice and whatever else we can get ourselves into.

G'Nite!

OBEY.

I'm not the type of person that typically needs a lot of incentive to get excited.

In fact, I get pretty pumped over some of the simplest things: new skeens of yarn, cool buttons, a thrifty bracelet, poppyseed dressing, puppies... yenno. Pretty basic.

I also [and bear with me; this will eventually tie together & make sense] have horrible luck when it comes to getting things I order online. More than a handful of times now have I made online purchases and regardless of where I have it shipped [home or office], there has been some glitch each time and I either never receive it or I do... three months after the ETA 2-4 business day thing.

Welp, this was no different. After weeks of false hopes ignited by both the FedEx & UPS trucks parking outside our building every..single...day [with deliveries for the other businesses here], I got an email from a seller I'd used that the item I had purchased had been returned to sender as undeliverable as addressed.

BULL!

So.. instead of requesting a refund like any normal person would, I emailed back with a more detailed shipping address and crossed my fingers. And waited.

... and waited..
.........

AND THEN....

TGIF!!

mustard yellow. obey. beanie.
magic.

It's here!
My collection of beanies is nearly complete in the capacity of owning one in each staple color. Mustard yellow was one of the few missing links in my wardrobe, so I consulted the world wide web and combined my love of OBEY with my obsession with beanies... and ended up [finally] owning this.

Hooray!

HAPPY FRIDAY!!
