Whimsy cont'd

     Looking for purpose for this day.  Nothing was completed yesterday.  Just a complete disorganized mess.  Something that could have and should have been avoided.

     Meandering drives.  Drive 10 miles in one direction, change mind, turn around, then back in the original direction. 2 things I did get accomplished.  Sort of.  Hit Barnes & Nobles book store.  Unfortunately packed.  Kiddies seemed to be holding a concert in the back.  Sounded dreadful but cute to see nonetheless.

     No point in my going for a look.  The pack was thick with parents and family.  That part was nice.  The part that wasn't?  I couldn't get into a groove.  I'm the sort that wanders the books store til the mood strikes.  Then I groove along.

     Often looking at books from authors I don't know.  Examining the bargain tables hoping for a gem.  Seemed to me there was and over abundance of teen stuff.  Wonder if that is where the market lies just now.

     Personally I didn't last long and decided to get gas.  I thought about the rest of the day.  Much had been eaten by traffic alone.  So many people on the road.  Odd.  Oh but this is shopping season I suppose.

     Queried I, what to do with the rest of the day.  Decided to return home for some lunch.  Dinner was a thought as well.  Was going to treat myself to some Halal food, unsure of the spelling there.

     Reasoning that would be costly I ate some of the whole wheat pasta I made for dinner earlier in the week.  Good not great.  Not to old either.  Then I had a thought, the car.  Should I get it washed?

     Spurred by the idea that they might be open I went to the local car wash.  Yup they were open.  Got the usual wash and vacuum.  Must say I am succeeding thus far in keeping it clean and mean.

     Tediously I waited.  Watched it go out for the detailing.  Tires, dash, windows.  It may be just me.  I'm always surprised how clean my windows are afterwards.  I really thing I may stop the occasional cigar in the car. 

     Unfortunately that has become a bit of a habit again.  And I've missed the contrived ashtray once or twice.  Thus I had little debate as to whether or not I should go.

     Vividly dreaming about my dinner I returned home.  Brother in law had been busy.  Cleaned his bathroom and vacuumed, and visited my sister.  He was tired.  He perused the menu and opted for the chicken fingers and fries.

     What did I get?  The combo plate.   Rice, skewer of chicken and beef, gyro meat and something else.  It is a lamb sausage like thing.  It is very good. And dessert I had baklava.  

     Here is where I fail dear reader.  So I see no point in continuing.  I especially though the thread in today's post was much better.

     Dinner was good.  Had and all right night's sleep.  Now it's shopping list time and then shopping.
