All this junk together cost me $192. Buuut I already have my first bid of $200, so no matter what, I'll be making money on Mr. Goldfinger. I'm pretty sad to see him go, I even cried a little yesterday when I put him on eBay. Why do I get so attached to stupid inanimate objects?
I then hit up the grocery store and they had a 20 pound bag of rice on sale... needless to say, I got it! That's a lot of rice. I looked funny carrying it around the store in one arm (I forgot to get a basket, I just had a handcart).
I made biscuits and gravy for dinner. I even opened my own biscuits! That's a big deal for me - usually I'm so afraid of things popping that I can't do it. It took me about 5 minutes of shaking and peeling, then dropping the biscuits and picking them up again to try again ... but I did it! :) Man, what a stupid thing to be afraid of. You should see me trying to blow up balloons!
Then I had poker night. Sarah canceled on us, so there were just 5: me, Dan, Shelby, Skyler, and Ron. I loved it! I lost, and I loved it! Those guys are so cool to hang with, maybe I need to have smaller poker nights. I went all-in on this bullshit hand because I had a flush ... and Dan calls me with a FULL HOUSE. Goddammit. Where did he pull a full fucking house out of?? I have an idea. I was doing so well though up until that point!
Tonight I think I'm going out for drinks with Idana, the girl who drove my ass back up to Fort Collins when Allen got me stranded in Alamosa because his clutch went out. I've been trying to hang out with her for a few weeks now, but we're always just really busy. (Well, not "busy" ... my plans usually involve going to a trivia night somewhere or hanging out with someone else ... so I can't really call myself busy, just occupied!)
Until then, I'll clean, I'll hang out, and maybe go spend some quality time with Mr. G before he gets sold.
