I went out! And did many errands, but not all of them. I had to come home for lunch.

I bought a coat which was half-off, but still kind of expensive, so I think I should go to Filene's Basement and Marshall's before I actually wear it, to be sure. Also there was a jacket I was IN LOVE WITH, but isn't practical to be my main jacket, so I left it behind.

Timelies all!

Did a few things today- went to the lab to deal with my cell lines, got a new pack of strings for my guitar(long overdue for changing) and picked up my comics from the comic book store.

I have mild envy of you Jesse for getting to buy jackets and coats on a regular basis.

Sounds like people are being productive and mostly with fun fulfilling things. Cool.

I got up too early today and I'm sure I'll be crashing later. I'm in the position of having to noodge but not annoy my brother so the raised bed thing can be finished today, hopefully before it rains. Forecast still calls for it although it looks great outside.

Got some good feedback on the video I made last night so I'll have to think of what song I can do next. (I'm paranoid about getting nailed for copyright so it's hard to think of things people want to see yet aren't likely to get me in trouble.) ETA: Holy crap! It just got blogged on Ukulelia.

ita, I'm sorry to hear about the pain meds running out. I sure hope you get a good ER visit where they listen to you and get it right.

That's great news, dcp!

Liese - Javier Castellano on Prince Will I Am moved off the rail into the path of Romp (ridden by Martin Garcia) - Romp almost went down, Garcia came out of the saddle - somehow they both got back together but in the mix - Romp bounced out into A U Miner (ridden by Borel). Borel clearly thought that his horse could have won - as it is the Stewards disqualified Prince Will I Am moving Gabriel's Hill to 2nd and AU Miner to 3rd.

My favorite Blood Horse headline: Flay's Filly Fillets Foes

Love it.

(Awww, ABC just showed an ad for Henry the Navigator featuring babies sired by him - including an adorable half-brother to Smarty Jones.)

I'm so scattered. Of course I agree with Beverly: great news, dcp! Yay!

Breeder's Cup: Interesting, a daughter of More than Ready won the Juvenile Fillies Turf and a son of More than Ready won the Juvenile (Colts/geldings) Turf. Both ridden by Garrett Gomez and trained by Todd Pletcher. Rough Sailing slipped on the first turn and is being taken off by the horse ambulance. The track vet says he has some swelling on his right front. (Sadly, this was the horse ridden by Rosie Napravnik - she rode Informed Decision in the Filly & Mare Sprint yesterday.)

BTW, did I mention that the winner of the "Marathon" is trained by a woman? And he has a goat as a companion.

Heh. Coats are awesome now, but will soon become a painful necessity...

Breeder's Cup: 2 races; 2 injured horses - they had to euthanize Rough Sailing - he'd broken his shoulder. Atta Boy Roy - just taken off in an ambulance. They'll radiograph him but the vet believes that he's injured a suspensitory ligament. (That doesn't sound right.)
