Tuesday
Today I started off by making a list! So many things needed to be done, namely getting:
- my tire plugged
- getting cat food
- buying more Vitamin Water
- going out to Fry’s
- Filene’s Basement
- pick up Charlotte so we could all have sushi together
So we started of with the tire, and moved onto cat food. The tire was easy $10 and plugged, and the cat food was fairly simple. Then Target for the Vitamin Water and boom the highway.
Spaghetti Junctions is always impressive!
Then we were in Gwinnett and at Fry’s.. That was ok, I then got lost on the way to Microcentre, but mdaniel came to the rescue and we succeeded! shazzamdabran decided he did not need a new laptop right away. So we drove back down to Atlanta (I am really proud of myself remembering all the short cuts and windy ways Mdaniel always takes), and so we caught very little traffic.
Filene’s Basement was great, who knows how many clothes shazzamdabran got, but a lot! Then off to Lenox and he got boots! Then to grab Charlotte and off to introduce shazzamdabran to Sushi. The food at Hashiguchi Jr was excellent as always, but the service was a little lacking. We dropped Charlotte off and swung by The Independant and played with anndr0id‘s Wii. Finally home and blessed sleep.
Wednesday
Another late day start, I think I made breakfast – poached eggs on toast? Hmmm, not sure. But, off to Little 5 points for Chuck Taylors and price a tattoo, and buy more clothes. Then to Virginia Highlands, and walking from one end to another, and stopping and looking at everything. This was not the greatest idea I have had, as it really strained my back. But, I got shazzamdabran to try raw oysters and we walked back to the car. That night was Badly Drawn Boy at the Loft, and so off we went. Guest list actually worked well and next new thing for shazzamdabran was Buttery Nipple shots
1 ounce Butterscotch Schnapps
1 ounce Irish Cream
Pour schnapps into an old-fashioned glass then slowly pour Irish Cream against side of glass. I am the worst infuence. But, we had to leave early as my back was seriously paining me.
Thursday
I had promised to take care of breakfast today, so we dropped the skydiving film off, and went to Whole Foods to meet Milton and eat! This time shazzamdabran, got the full walk around Whole Foods experience and taste things and see all the choices. We got sandwiches and several chocolate bars for his Dad – and one for me. Then Milton joined us, we ate and went off to Plaza Fiesta. Great, two people who speak not one iota of Spanish! But, we got a cowboy hat, and then off to meet teka for dinner at Figo. A yummy dinner was had, then back to teka‘s place for some music and more wine. After that, back to my place to get ready for 80’s Night, as everyone needs to see Masquerade…. We were to late for the NIN listening party, but, I saw some friends and got shazzamdabran drunk on Tequila…
Friday
Today I realized how quickly time had gone by! So many things still to do, and only a brief morning to get them done in. So first up breakfast at The Flying Biscuit, and a chance for grits. Then final presents to be picked up – Crocs – and a goodbye to all and take shazzamdabran to the airport.
Home to a peaceful house for me, for about 20 mins, then off to the Noise Festival at Eyedrum, then the Gravity Pub to see blackoutdaddy‘s wisdom teeth… and finally bed.
