Magnus entered both of our LJ names into the Giant Battle Monster thingie that [livejournal.com profile] blookum posted. His little monster was pretty fierce. Unfortunately, I was a lame-o weakling. He assures me that his supergiant monster will protect my dinky little one. That's super, because I'm very busy guarding my nest and can't be bothered with such things.

Today was intended to be a super-fun outing adventure, but kinda turned out a little lazier than it could have been. We had big plans for swimming or shopping in either Lexington or Ashland or something like that. Then we got invited to lunch at the store.. they were fixing BLTs and thought we might want to come down. I really didn't want bacon, but thought I'd feel a little guilty if we turned them down for no reason. So we went. After five minutes, Dad mentions that there's a commercial yard sale at the restaraunt that went out of business (Boomerang's) and he'd like to go and would I mind watching the register while him and Magnus went out there? Anyway, the shortened version of this is that I ended up working for two unpaid hours on my day off. Yay. Well, two hours minus eating time. When we finally got out of there, we went to Carter Caves and played minigolf (I won! Yay!) and then came home. We were headed to Ashland, where I might or might not get a needed haircut, but we decided we didn't want to. Came home and took a nap instead. Magnus expends a tremendous amount of energy making me fall asleep. It's kind of weird, really.

I bought M two Monty Python type movies tonight, and we just finished watching Life of Brian. I hadn't seen it. Not my favorite, as it turns out. Not particularly fond of it, actually, though it wasn't terrible. And I lost my needle somewhere in the couch or on the floor. I got the urge to cross-stitch again last night and started one of our many tiny purchased-on-sale holiday kits. You know the ones, measuring about two inches square? I really haven't worked on anything since I started tatting.. I wish I could at least finish up the two projects I had going. Unfortunately, almost the only thing left on one of them was the bitchy delicate accents done in gold metallic. See what I mean? I promised it to Mom for Mother's Day last year, though, so it'd be nice to give it to her. *giggle* Anyway, I have this terrible habit of losing needles, which is another good reason for me to pursue another craft. :) This one was pretty blunt, at least.

Need to stop sitting on my feet. I was doing better with it, but have lately been sitting cross-legged again. Bad for me. Makes chiropractor gripe loudly. And makes legs, feet and assorted joints hurt. Looks like I'd eventually learn, doesn't it?

I've eaten at D's once.. I had the cajun turkey sandwich. It was decently good, but it rather reminded me of deli bologna with cayenne pepper on the edges. I loved the atmosphere, though. It's another place I really don't understand. Magnus didn't even know they existed until I went there with my cousin for lunch a while back. Why don't these out-of-the-way places (Main Street, out of the way.. humorous, really) advertise? And they're closed on Saturdays. Wtf? Why would a restaraunt be closed on Saturdays? Be closed on Mondays if you have to, but not Saturday! Argh. I still miss the China Garden (they were closed on Mondays, if you didn't catch the connection). They were the best Chinese place in town until that damned China Star ran them out of business. Don't like China Star, but the China Cafe in the Morehead Plaza is pretty good. And I'm still in mourning over Trevino's, even with the new Italian place. :)

La Finca's is by far my favorite, though, and I'd be extremely surprised if they went out of business at this point. As long as we have La Finca's, I'm happy. Can always go to Lexington to eat, though I was hoping the liquor by the drink thing they made such a huge deal out of would intice a Red Lobster or an Applebee's or something. Morehead has a lot of restaraunts, really.. they're just mostly fast food. *sigh*

Ah! La Finca is KING!!!

La Finca ruuuuuuuuuuuuules.

I doubt our economy could support even an Applebee's. Listen to me, "our" economy, like I still live there...
