...Where she'll go, nobody knows
Jun. 27th, 2008 10:15 pmThat is how I feel about today. I got up too early because my body has adjusted to getting less sleep, and I puttered around, thinking I would go somewhere before I went to my lesson at 2. Did I? Well, going to the ATM to get money for the lesson may or may not count, My usual one was out of order, so I had to go back to my apartment to ask Ben, the RA, where others were. Turns out the other was half a block from my usual ATM. Sigh. If I had not been sidetracked in this manner, I probably would have gotten to the grocery store.
On the upside, I did get to explore my neighborhood more thoroughly, it was fun. My lesson was probably the best out of all five I've had here, and, alas, it was my last, as well. Barbara, I will not miss your over-talking and over-demonstrating, and the mental gymnastics I had to perform to keep on track in my lesson, but I am grateful for your upbeat attitude and straight-forwardness, see you Monday (chamber rehearsal).
Nothing to do now except go home and shop at the yarn store and get groceries, right? Well...I grabbed some ice cream on the way home, thinking they would close at five. And then I thought the grocery store would close at five as well when I looked up and saw that it was 4:55pm. So, no groceries or yarn, darn it. I get online and read blogs for (cringe) and hour and forty-five minutes (I can say that in German: ein Uhr und vierundfunfzig Minuten, hah!). Then Andrew came in. He had groceries. I asked "Where did the food come from?" And he said, "The grocery store."
I realized at this point that it was Friday, not Saturday, and therefore the stores close at seven, not five. I had fifteen minutes (funfzehn Minuten, heeheehee), so I went, and bought more groceries at one time then I ever had before. I couldn't fit it all into the Whole Foods sack that Mother generously donated for the trip (more about shopping oddities later). I came back, put it all away. And I wasn't hungry. This is odd. Usually the reason I buy more food than usual is because I am hungry. That was not the case this time.
Again, though, no time for a yarn store visit. I am determined it will be done tomorrow.
I am finally hungry, and it is 10:30 pm here. I am making more spaghetti (yes, again, I haven't run out yet).
See ya'll tomorrow.
