ase1.) Farmer's market (Okay, Bethesda Women's Co-op.)
1a.) Grape tomatoes in rubbermaid
1b.) Semi-impulse purchase: replacement silver necklace chain. (Original chain busted... July.)
2.) Bethesda library
2a.) Three Octavia Butler novels; neither of the pair I wanted
2b.) The Parable duology is not required reading during election season
2c.) Maybe it should be!
3.) Taste of Bethesda
3a.) Crush of humanity + backpack = annoying
3b.) Blood sugar drop: crankiness is the nicest adjective
3b1.) Uggs in DC are the triumph of advertising over sense.
3c.) Desire to kill young female hipsters carrying fluffy fashion dogs mitigated by chicken and rice. Bless you, Tara Thai, and your short line!
3d.) Cover bands win.
3e.) Cookies for the road.
4.) TJ's and Whole Foods
4a.) How to annoy customers: lie about being out of tortillas.
4b.) How to lose customers: jack Luna Bar prices 20%. Five snacks for the price of six!
5.) Next library
5a.) Parable duology: score!
5b.) How to suggest a book from the comfort of your laptop.
6.) Chili in the crockpot! Laptop + TV roommate bonding time.
6a.) Discover four hours later that crockpot was turned on, but not plugged in.
6b.) Someone's getting up at 4 AM to turn off the crockpot.
6c.) Didn't say anyone was staying up at 4 AM.
6d.) Snack on tomatoes and cookies. Thanks to rubbermaid, sitting at the bottom of the grocery backpack did them no harm. Yay! Pleasant change from last week's smashed, wet, seedy masses.
6e.) Everything that didn't hurt from walking all over two municipalities now hurts from laptop + futon anti-ergonomic principles. Ow.
Also, the weather was every kind of fantastic. I am tempted to use next week's midday dental appointment as an excuse to take an entire day off.
Finally, second picture from the bottom: welcome back, Hamlet.
