First, though, a look at the WSAV weather song to check for low notes.
Today was to be a glorious day, and a fabulous night, too!
Tomorrow would start out well, but it seems that the bottom was to drop clean out overnight, leaving naught but cold Hell for the next two days.
Well, ain't that some shiite?
That just meant I needed to bring my robe and slippers, and my coat, too.
Forewarned is forearmed.
They were really excited to be taking this junket to Atlantic City!!!
I would be, too.
They were glad that their dear dog would be in my hands, here at their house.
Stella can be a bit nervous sometimes, so I'm glad I'll have her on her own turf.
She's a Heinz 57, part Labrador, part Rhodesian something, and she looks like a racing hound to me.
She also looks kinda sorta like my Toffee, though her eyes aren't as pretty.
(smile!)
After Dawn and Chris headed off to the airport, I set up my computer, to make sure I'd have wifi access - perfect!
I checked in with my first niece... were we meeting in Richmond Hill for chips and cheese this afternoon?
Nope, her alternator had gone out, so she was stuck in Hinesville.
Time for an alternate plan: the 3:30 PM screening of "Sarah's Oil", with my A*List, then to the Food Lion of Georgetown for milk and supplies.
Yes, that would be just fine!
The movie, about Sarah Rector, an 11-year-old with Creek ancestors - just like me! - was granted 160 acres of Oklahoma land by the federal government.
Maybe I could get in on that deal!
Nope, it was only for black descendants, and I'm I-C-E, remember?
I liked the movie, which, for once, was absolutely true to the previews I'd seen.
Very nice, though I doubt I'll see it again.
I'm glad so many others were out for a sunny-day matinee for it, though.
They all seemed to enjoy it like I did, too.
(smile!)
Food Lion had my milk, my favorite soups, my favorite yogurts, and even a Red Baron Brick Oven Three-Meat Pizza - and it was on sale, too!
Yes, that will be very nice, maybe for tomorrow night!
So good to have access to a working oven!
Stella was glad to see me and didn't even bark - good girl!
She likes to pretend she's a watchdog, but she's really an 'alarm' dog.
She's also quite a mooch!
I didn't want to share the Cheetos with her, so she got some of her snacks instead.
Together, we watched movie after movie!
"Star Wars", followed by "Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back"!
Very nice, even though there were 'mercials.
Very nice, even though there were 'mercials.
Then I found "Guardians Of The Galaxy: Vol. 2", catching it a few scenes before Yondu and Rocket and baby Groot break out of the brig and wreak havoc on Taser-face's mutinous crew, all as "Come A Little Bit Closer" wafted through the ship - perfect!!!
After that, I caught "Shawshank Redemption", just a few scenes before the prison detail set about tarring the roof, with 'Andy' securing beers for all of them... and getting accounting work at the prison instead of the laundry shift - perfect!
Yes, I look forward to seeing lots of movies the next few days!
