Alright, missed yesterday trying to get caught up on all the things at work. Anyway, Wednesday was a pretty uneventful day. I worked til noon and then headed down to Primanti's to pick up sandwiches for everyone. Terri picked me up and we headed home to pack the car and ride off into the sunset. I'm telling you, that drive across Pa. gets longer and longer each time. We got into Matt and Alison's at about 11:00 or so. I was greeted by Susie their "new" "old" dog. Susie is 7, but Matt and Alison just got her a few months ago from a friend whose living arrangements were no longer able to accomodate a dog. Susie does what they call "the lean." She'll walk up to you, turn her body towards you and lean on your legs til you pet her. Turns out she's right on my knee level and after 9 hours in the car, she didn't earn any points. But, that's ok. I don't like dogs anyway.
Thursday dawned or rained depending on your outlook. Matt, Terri, and I took Susie for a stumble. It wanted to be a run, but it wasn't. We tried. But, that's ok. I don't like dogs anyway. Terri and I tried to get our hair cut, but walk-ins are only welcome occasionally. So, we were told to come back at 4. Since Matt had dropped us off and went to get a dog license, we decided to walk to the nearby Store. They were closed for inventory. So, we were striking out all the way around. Matt was back by then and he had also struck out. Turns out he needed a rabies certificate that he left at home. But, that's ok. I don't like dogs anyway. Then we headed to the grocery store for dinner ingredients. I know we were in Connecticut, but you could never prove that looking at the magazine rack in the store. The only magazine that mentioned Ct. on the cover was a golf magazine which is a waste of the paper it is printed on. There were magazines for Boston, Rhode Island, and Vermont. I guess even Ct. people don't want to actually be in Ct.

This is your hint to move back to Pittsburgh...you know who you are.

After shopping and not buying Cottage cheese, we headed back to the house to have the Primanti's sandwiches for lunch. Then on to the haircut, but not the Store. Feeling about 5 pounds lighter with no hair, we headed back home and caught up with Alison just back from work. So, we hung out and watched Matt cook dinner and played Skipbo. A very interesting game. Though after Matt and I won several times Terri and Alison just wanted to know when dinner was going to be ready. The rest of Thursday was very laid back. As noted before Matt got his ass kicked several times at Trivial Pursuit and we all went to bed happy. And, on that note...we cue the music, or at least stop for a breather.
