I had to wash my hair with soap.
Oh, the horror! I hope you had conditioner.

At the gym, the elliptical machines and treadmills have TVs, and on the elliptical machines, you can plug your headphones into the TV and thus watch MTV Classic and Fuse. On the treadmills, there's no place to plug in your headphones, so you have to listen to your own music on your own portable device.



Infuriating!


Just kidding, although I'd rather get to watch MTV Classic and Fuse.

An e-coupon didn't work at the grocery store because the item was already on sale. They have to make money somehow.

Against my better judgment, I went into Tuesday Morning today, with a vague idea of picking up a random gift thing to have on hand - in other words, no reason at all other than to scope things out.

And to buy things I do not need. I spent $49 on things I do not need - a mug, some salad tong things, some silicone oven mitts, some sachets to hang in my closet, and a candle. Do you see a single thing on that list that I actually need because I sure don't.

Oh, and some cute napkins. Can't forget about those!

I know this is a common complaint and some people get offended by it, but I've been treated to more than my fair share of "TMI" yoga pant/legging sightings lately. I was waiting in the car at the grocery store and had already witnessed a couple of them. The third time was this woman at the front of the store, standing with her back to me, intent on her phone. What she didn't seem to realize is that the sign right next to her read "USDA Choice." It would have made for a funny photo, but I'm much too classy for that.

It has rained on and off for the past three days. I moved all my potted plants closer to the front door, onto the (covered)porch, because the heavy rain would otherwise beat them down and they would get waterlogged. But with no exposure to rain at all, they got dried out and wilty. So I had to go out today and water my plants while it rained ten feet away.

The breakfast sandwich that I bought this morning was just OK.

I'm in SW Florida and right now it's 42 degrees. WTH? Sunday it rained all day and never got out of the 50's and this is our "dry" season. I finally broke down and bought a space heater. And this is a first world problem because people "up north" are dealing with wind chills of -50.

My tech savvy younger son fixed my mousepad laptop situation. He put duct tape on it. :-)

I bought a small harp from a friend of mine. It's out of tune and the instructions say, "Wear safety glasses when adjusting the strings." Now I'm scared of knocking my eyeballs out while tuning my cool little harp. It hardly seems worth the risk.

Y'all are cracking me up!

OK, first world problem of today.

I ordered a cargo net for my Mercedes SUV. It came in today. It is basically useless - I don't even understand what the purpose is. Apparently it's a "luggage" net. What the heck is that?

So I had to get on Amazon and order some yeehaw thang - no telling what it will be like but it can't be worse than this thing.
