I was going to get up and go to the supermarket early today. I am....almost ready to go? Pretty sure it will still be better than 4pm today or after work tomorrow.
Trader Joe's was busy yesterday, and a little busier than a regular Saturday, but not bonkers. The only problem -- and we usually run into this problem on a Saturday anyway -- was finding parking. So Tim dropped me off and I started shopping while he circled the parking lot until someone left.
Meara, I'm supposed to run 7 miles today. But it's COLD and it's supposed to RAIN and I really don't want to! So I may postpone and run tomorrow. I don't know how anyone runs in cooler climates. I guarantee I never would have started my running if I didn't live in SoCal.
Hahaha! Whereas I say if I hadn't moved away from a place that is hot in the summer I never would've started running! It's 36 here (which is super cold for Seattle!!) and I'm in my car with my coat on--trying to decide how long I can stay in here and still have time to hit the ports potty before the race starts!
I bought almost all my thanksgiving stuff Friday because I didn't want to wait and be like "oh clap they have no onions" or whatever.
Supermarket was totally fine! Maybe more shoppers than usual, but also more staff -- I didn't even wait in line at all.
Also, pretty pleased that I've been craving a coffee frappe (aka milkshake, people from Elsewhere), so I just bought some ice cream and made one! Luckily, I already had coffee syrup in the house.
Today is our Fakesgiving. I am doing nothing. It all feels off and I am the big traditionalist. Faking an acceptable mood. Everyone is on devices and I forgot to charge my kindle so I have nothing to read.
Timelies all!
Am being ear wormed with "The Ballad of Captain America's Disapproving Face".
That doesn't sound like a promising start to the Fakesgiving, but perhaps there's something enjoyable and appropriately festive to watch on Netflix? I'm a fan of Home for the Holidays myself. And if all else fails, I am offering that I can be available later today if you'd like to hang out with someone virtually and dish the what.
Yeah virtually hanging out is going to be my highlight I bet. I seem to be lonelier every year. I think living with friends and or forcing myself to date is on the horizon. I may need a national search matchmaker.
I wish we lived closer so we could hang in person
