Buzzkill
1.5 hours sitting in the Honda dealership waiting area to get my oil changed. I thought that I’d have the place all to myself seeing as how everyone should be at the beach this Memorial Day weekend. Not so much.
To reward myself for my patience, I forked over $7.50 on a ticket to see The Hangover 2. Just as but-gusting as the first one! Zach Galifiankis plays Allen, ”a stay at home son” (I dated one of those!), who drinks Fanta from a bag while trying to piece together clues with Ed Helms and Bradley Cooper and a drug-running monkey on what happened on the eve of Ed Helms’ wedding. The movie was rated R, but that didn’t stop one couple from bringing their small child to the 12:15 showing. Talk about a buzzkill. I purposely go see rated R movies and drink at bars because those are places I know children will not be.
$11 on eye cream at Nordstrom Rack because I have reached that age where eye cream needs to be introduced into my make up regime. I seem to have developed frown lines from my disapproving glances at the parenting skills of strangers.
Reading can feed the soul. After I checked out “Exit through the gift shop”, a documentary about Banksy, I noticed a sign across the street offering free Rita’s Italian ice to one and all. Don’t mind if I do. Once home, I noticed an email in my Match.com inbox from an Italian. I should invite him to Rita’s. My treat.
