Saturday
Bright and early at 1:00pm-ish Dawg and I ventured out into the world to do errands.

First errand was dry cleaning. When we got there a black SUV pulled up next to us with Donkey in the driver’s seat and The Steff’s mom in the passenger’s seat. The irony of this is that Donkey just got back into town Friday night after being gone for a very long time for some work training.

Dropped off the dry cleaning (Dawg’s uniform shirts) and headed to the laundromat to drop off our laundry. Other than being called the Long Island Lolitas (the woman behind the counter couldn’t remember who we were so guessed our name was “Fisher”) the laundromat was uneventful.

We then headed to Georgia Diner — my favorite — where I had a turkey sandwich and Dawg had a bacon cheeseburger with fries. YUM. After the diner we headed over to Target where we bought:

3 dress shirts (for me)
1 pair of trousers (for me)
1 short-sleeved shirt (for me)
1 A&W Root Beer (for Dawg)
1 Axe smell-really-good-turn-good-girls-naughty kit (for Dawg)
1 crock pot
1 toaster
3 soup bowls
2 cereal bowls
1 flatware set

We then headed over to the Super Stop & Shop and did a full shopping. They now carry my favorite beer, Three Philosophers, so I was happy to buy some there instead of having to go all the way to New Jersey for New York-brewed beer.

After shopping we came home and got the sweetest parking spot directly in front of the apartment building then unloaded the truck. Some time later we had Bourbon rotisserie chicken from the supermarket (VERY tasty) and Stove Top stuffing with gravy. Ahhhhhhhh. And then Dawg did most of the dishes in the sink because he is the best boyfriend EVAR.

To celebrate me getting a job Dawg broke out the Absinthe. Here’s a little video of preparing the Absinthe:

It was my first time trying it. I didn’t like it even a little bit and I didn’t drink enough to see faeries (spelling very much intentional) so I’ll have to try again to acquire that taste. Oh well. Dawg, on the other hand, enjoyed his Absinthe. He’s had it many times before and appreciates its anise-y taste. We tried watching SNL while drinking the Absinthe but it was a repeat so we just turned off the TV and went to bed.

Sunday
A night of sleep later I woke up at 7:07am to kitties wanting their treat. I got up to feed them and almost went back to bed but instead I chose to finish washing the dishes left in the sink then clean the kitchen and bathroom. At 9:28am I crawled back into bed and Dawg fluttered his eyes opened, grabbed me to him, and told me he was getting up so we could be ready for another day of errands. Argh, I had hoped to go back to sleep. He said I should!, so I did until 10:30am when I woke up and took a quick shower then we headed out.

First errand of the day was for me to drive my poor neglected Kia that hasn’t been driven in about two weeks to the Queens Center Mall for clothes and shoe shopping and lunch at the food court. Here’s some mall footage and a bonus bit of footage back home using one of the objects purchased:

Purchased at Payless:
1 pair black Predictions sneakers
1 pair brown Lower East Side knee-high boots

Purchased at JC Penney:
1 V-Neck sweater
1 Cable V-Neck sweater
1 Crewneck sweater

Purchased at Taco Bell (for me):
3 crunchy tacos supreme
1 fountain soda Pepsi

Purchased at Charley’s (for Dawg):
1 Philly cheesesteak with cheddar and barbecue sauce
1 loaded fries (cheese and bacon)
1 fountain soda Coke

Purchased at IT’SUGAR:
1 t-shirt with something naughty about licking a Tootsie roll pop
The rest I can’t tell you because it’s a present for someone who reads my blog. :winks:

Purchased at Macy’s:
1 Calvin Klein down/fleece-lined winter jacket originally priced $200 but purchased for $79.99 (go, Poppy!)

Purchased at ALDO:
1 pair business shoes
1 belt
1 shoe gloss kit

Purchased at Pretzel Time:
2 plain pretzels
1 fountain soda

After shopping we drove over to pick up the laundry from the day before then drove to East Meets West to pick up Chinese food to eat during “True Blood” tonight.

When we got home I got a call from Dawg’s mom (she calls me to make plans; I love that) and now we’re having pot roast dinner at her house on Wednesday, yippy!

And that brings you up to current. Probably more stuff will happen tonight but my prediction is that involves Chinese food, “True Blood”, and things you don’t want to hear about. :winks:

So, yup, that’s the weekend. Hope you had a good one! I know we did!
