what we did on our weekend

saturday:

went to superwalmart, a place i love with all my heart. almost bought all the sad looking lavender plants that were on death row but realized i was not the best person to save them. bought every variety of vanilla yogurt they sell that i couldn't hear swishing around (i am absolutely in l-o-v-e with thick vanilla yogurt) and ate all the grapes on the way home :|

went home and watched toddlers and tiaras - i just don't get the facial expressions... i mean they are fascinating at all but do even pedophiles find them attractive? oh gosh and the little boy in the pageant... tragic :|

in a sudden burst of energy we rode our bikes! we had to go around the entire park all over again because i thought i saw a bear's claw while passing some pedestrians and had to investigate - it turned out to be a metal hook :|

went to soulless Costco in Tustin Ranch (nothing ranchy about it) and bought 8 tubs of coffee creamer which should last me at least 2.5 weeks. also refilled my printer ink!! horray no more desperately sad flashing light making me feel like a horrible printer owner! and my printer works again!! i can print Michaels and Joanns coupons!!! and the ink refills were only $8 :) uhuh! oh yeah! uhuh! oh yeah!! to quote several small children who live around here...

onto home depot for concrete to cover dead bodies with (just kidding;) and a beautiful laceleaf japanese maple tree thing that was too pretty to leave behind (i left it behind last time i went and rocked back and forth over it for the past week) also bought vegetable plant thingies to kill at a later date

then to petsmart to look for this mouse cage and Martha Stewart dog collars - i am woefully disappointed in her... doesn't she realize most people have TWO matching dogs and they are color coded for easy identification?? there must be a blue and a red everything in my particular world.... or i just can't buy it :(

went home and planted the plants and vegetables - was all pissed because the tomato plant i bought because it already had tomatoes attached tragically lost all it's tomatoes in transition, forcing me to have a small meltdown and actually consider sticking the tomatoes back on :|

sunday
dog beach!! and i didn't get peed on! but i felt sick and had to sit on a rock. went home sniffing fresh air with head very still to avoid car sickness. had ginger cat cookies and felt better.

went to a magical new place for lunch - John's incredible pizza! and it really is magical!! it is the lovechild of Chuck E Cheese, Dave and Busters AND Hometown Buffet (ok that's impossible... but sounds amazing right??! a big dancing mascot/all you can eat pizza/games!!) they had garlic breadsticks! and rich meaty dipping sauce!! pasta! and fizzy diet coke! and 20 different kinds of pizza, actually hot and yummy! and a latte maker!! and a room that played Tom and Jerry on a neverending loop for transfixed QUIET children! and a hot donut maker! and soft icecream! when we left, they even stamped our hands so we could go back, if we could ever ever ever eat again... it was like a dream, a very very good dream!!!

went home and looked at more beach rentals. found a promising looking one only to find on google maps a big warning flag that the pismo beach dunes are highly unsavory due to them being the only driveable ATV beach in California... good to know BEFORE you book, i suppose ;)

changed focus to buying dog collars. oh my word, why???!!! why do they all come in 13-17 inches or 19-26 when your dogs have 18 inch necks??! and why are they all so ugly?? zebra print....??! why???!

also watched united states of tara and still can't decide if i like it. sure i like the Aidan character and all ;)
