Good Things/Bad Things
Sep. 23rd, 2007 09:13 pmGood things about the day:
+ I went back to Petsmart today and the kitty I wrote about yesterday has been adopted! Hooray!
+ Dustin took me out to Chili's for dinner and because I had a giftcard, it only cost us $7. Hooray!
+ I got a lot of chores done around the house and I feel like things are more organized now. Hooray!
+ On Friday at 3 p.m., Dustin found out that he's now on Monday-Friday schedule, which means that we get WHOLE WEEKENDS together now. Hooray!
+Dustin started to look up treatment options for my mealworm allergy, and now I've taken over the search, and it seems like there ARE options out there that have been written about in medical journals. Hooray!
+ I met up with Sarah for lunch and we had a great time catching up for over two hours! Hooray for meeting up with old friends!
+ I gained a new LJ friend today!![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
lady_amorika, who is not only in ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
weddingplans, but she's also in loversfaraway, getwellgrandma, AND is already friends with almariel, so I know we'll be good lj friends. Hooray!
Bad things about the day:
- My purse, which is an army-green messenger bag I got for $2 at a Goodwill four years ago, is finally on its last string. It keeps on breaking and the compartments inside are just destroyed. I've found a replacement purse that isn't too girly, it's a messenger bag style, and has the compartments that I want. The only bad thing? It's a Vera Bradley purse. Which sucks because I don't want to pay the exhorbetant price that comes with having a designer name bag. If anyone knows of a good knockoff Vera Bradley website or resource, please let me know. I'm actually pretty pissed that I like a designer bag. I want a cheap bag, dammit!
- The new cat that we got a week ago today still isn't too happy to see me or Dustin. She's very interested in the cats and wants to play with them (although our cats still aren't too sure about her yet), but she has absolutely no interest in us. If that's the cat she turns out to be, I guess that's okay. I'll love her for who she is and all that jazz. But a bit of me hopes that the utterly terrifying look she gets in her eyes every time Dustin or I enters the same room will pass and she'll realize that we're good people and we just want her to be happy.
- I went to Bed, Bath & Beyond to buy a wedding gift for my cousin's wedding next weekend and it took me twenty minutes to check out and get my gift wrapped. And there was no one in line ahead of me! The woman who checked me out actually put my gift in the "reshelve" pile instead of giving it to me or gift wrapping it. What a silly lady. When another woman finally came over to gift wrap it, she would wrap a bit, then wander off and do something else, then come back, then wander off again. It was annoying.
