Saturday night
Jun. 29th, 2002 11:26 pmToday has been long, hot, and uneventful, mostly. I had to work at the yard sale some.. I sat some clothes out and stayed with them for a while. Then I came back and ate lunch and did some work. I went back up in the afternoon to say hello, but nothing exciting was happening so I came back. Payed bills, balanced the checkbook. Magnus brought a Honda Accord home from work.. it was a tradein, and he was considering that we might buy it, but turned out that we didn't like it much. Anyway, had dinner at Pasquale's, and the parents came by for a little while. All in all, we sold $47 worth of stuff. That was pretty neat!
I want to order Alton Brown's cookbook (I'm Just Here for the Food: Food + Heat = Cooking) but if I order two items, shipping will be free. And the problem is not necessarily finding one book to buy, it's narrowing all the choices down. We love books.. and then there are the DVD possibilities. Troublesome.
Shannan gave me a candle, and it's made the house smell so nice! My eyes were tired, though, and the smoke/smell hasn't really helped. I suppose it might have been better if I'd thought to put it anywhere else in the house than right at my side.. Both of us had a hard time sleeping last night. For one thing, our dear neighbors decided at 12:30 to air their grievances with each other and the neighborhood. Actually, we were falling asleep, had just drifted off, when there was this huge metallic bang outside. I thought someone was breaking into the shop or something.. but seemingly, it was one of them shoving the other into the car or similar. Then the yelling started. ..One of them finally got really mad and left, slamming the door and roaring down the road in that angry sort of way.. engine revving loudly. Naturally, though, they were too mad to stay gone when they could be yelling at the other person, so they returned shortly afterwards for a short yelling bout.. and then they quieted down, possibly going in and making up. Who knows. It was Friday night, they were probably so drunk they don't remember it now.
I hate people.
M sold a car today! Yay baby!
