Last night I had the most restful sleep I've had in two weeks, despite a dream about testifying a custody hearing between Jackie & Neil. Later in the dream I trapped tiny mice under my highball glasses, all over the kitchen.

Work let us out at 3pm. There wasn't really much to do in Florida, as all the county offices were closed. For some reason, I couldn't get a single living person to answer the phone in Queens. Maybe the RNC madness drove all the assessors away. Either way, it was alternately slow and fast as we slogged through it all to the end.

After work, we picked up some odds and ends from the fabric store. Lots of buttons for Alan, and some beads for me. Our friendly neighborhood liquor store was glad to supply us with three excellent bottles of wine for the weekend. One has a penguin on the label, so I know Cate will like that one.

The Blockbuster nearest us is closing, which I didn't know until I walked into the store. This is a serious pain as it means if I want to rent a movie I must now drive to the one at Burnet and 2222. It's hellacious trying to get out of that parking lot. But at the closing store I snagged a copy of Master & Commander for $6. The traffic coming home was terrible.

Time to run some laundry while I catch a little Law & Order. I want that laundry done, so I can start drinking and watching movies.

Hope the weekend is better than the past few weeks have been. *hugs*

Elisa and I are planning a night of tequilla and movies if you'd like to join us. :)

I thought you lived near highland mall- maybe you don't live too far from the movie store on guadalupe? Or maybe I luv on airport? Personally I haaate chain video stores and always avoid them.

I'm surprised you could miss it! It's their huge location, two stories inside with tooons of vidoes. They just repainted it all big and ugly on the front just like they did with the guad location. As to where it is I am really horrible at telling where stuff is so I would just say look up the address and mapquest it.

Hmm alright then, thanks for letting me know.
