When does Stupid Late become Stupid Early?

LOML spent most of the night working his baseball thang this evening. Misterpher woke up with some congestion that was really ugly and in his throat. Of course, we have no Kali bichromicum to knock it out with. I'll be headed over tot he Super Sups as soon as they open to stock up.

So I guess I got to bed early enough to be awake enough right now to head for the 'puter.

Yesterday was glorious. We woke up, sent the squids to watch some vids, cooked up some bacon, had a huge breakfast, went to Kabloey's game (they lost, but I finally got to watch him play), saw friends whose son was playing a game on the other side of the partition (just like split screen tv!), stopped off at home base to allow the party to split. I took Misterpher and the Girl to the fabric/craft store to pick up more yarn. LOML and Kabloey went to the clubhouse to talk baseball.

Spent $$ at fabric store, but got a lot of stuff on sale. Even got the receipt with the "take our survey" tail on it. Twisted LOML arm - not too much- to meet us at Target Bell for lunch.

Walked over to get a pedicure. I saw an erstwhile cashier from TJ's in the Sally's window. I backtracked and stopped in to chat. She has "changed careers" and is going to beauty school. She has about 200 hours left before she can go on the floor. But shoot, I'll work to keep tabs on her. I'll work to keep tabs on anyone who knows my squids by name and is eager to see them again.

Spent the afternoon getting a pedicure. Didn't bring my knitting, but I did enjoy the ambiance. An 8yo girl was getting dolled up for something. A little boy about 4yo was in queue for a manicure. A tomboy-ish woman was getting her first full set. She had a date Saturday she was dolling up for. Her friend had to drag her in. The nail tech, a guy, said she was too pretty to be mistaken for a tomboy. My lady was new and told me about how she got lost on her way to work her second day out. The wax lady said Wow before she seared my upper lip and then complained about the short hairs on my chin.

What do you want lady? A complate moustache and beard before I get to you?

Got home. Girl saw the nails and wanted some of her own. She has it down pat: pick a couple of colors, set up the diaper on the bed, hold still until one set of nails is done, then wave the done hand until I ask her to hold still. Ever Misterpher came in and wanted some polish. This time it was a translucent opalescent job. The screaming pink colors just don't go over well with him. Understandable.

We had a movie night. Girl asked LOML to sit wiht her. They fell asleep. Went to JITB to pick up dinner. Not the best, but someone else cooked it and the dishes are disposable. The Girl is still asleep. LOML stayed up to a stupid late hour. (The one just before I woke up stupid early.) Finished reading "Salamandastron." Next family read book is "The Art of Raising a Puppy" to get us ready for a new family member.

So the finances are in order, waiting for the tax refund and I'll probably do the dishes before I make another breakfast mess.
