Yesterday and today have been great days.
Dec. 9th, 2011 06:44 pmThere was nothing spectacular about yesterday, just that I got up early enough (after going to bed early, so I was actually rested), and got to be awake for awhile and have most of a cup of coffee before taking my meds and having breakfast. I had time to read fic and update Tumblr and it was just nice and quiet.
I got to work early enough that since there was a good Supertramp song on, I just sat in the car, drumming on the steering wheel and singing along until it was over before going in, and that put me in a good mood for the rest of the day, and I finished a scarf and made two more, so yay. :)
Today wasn't all that spectacular either, especially since just as I was getting into the car to be at work early again today, Chris needed me at the company (I'd dropped him off at the motor pool at 0545), and I was 20 minutes or so late for work as a result. Though neither Della nor Teri seemed to notice, so all's well that ends well.
It was a pretty good day. My crochet friend Victor stopped by to ask why I hadn't been there last week (I'd been at home sick with plague--I mean a bad cold), since he'd brought his fiancee to meet me (I've taught him basic crochet, he's gotten quite good). That was a bummer but he did show me his cool titanium-alloy engagement ring (so cool that the guy gets one too, that should totally be a new tradition!) and I'll be seeing him tomorrow for our Saturday stitch-and-bitch. :)
AND, and this is the great thing that happened today, Chris came to get me early (after getting him at the company, we'd gone to the PX together and Chris took the car from there), and I had cash to pay for most of the new Elder Scrolls game so he was able to get that (AND they called him back into the store because right after he left, someone came in and turned in one, so they returned the unused new game and sold him the used one at the used price since there were no special codes or anything for buying new, and got the difference back in cash), and then he went to wander off...and then he came back with a box of something behind him, a big box like something you'd get a new laptop in, though it didn't look heavy enough in his hands to be a laptop case...and he told me to guess. I guessed "chocolate"--and I was right!
It was a huge-ass box of chocolates. A Whitman's Sampler. And when I was packing up to go the other shopkeepers (all women since the florist lady's husband wasn't around at that time) got to "awwww" over that nice thing that Chris did. Time to nom some with Chris and then go to bed, and then I'll bring what's left so share at work with my friends, especially the single ones because they deserve to be given chocolate too. :)
So, how're y'all doing?
