today i.... (sunday edition)

had three cups of coffee for breakfast

hated on that horrible Gail from Coronation Street.  she's always been horrible...

saw a guy on Corrie who i saw in Manchester.  the one with the nice hair :)  they have 4 gay characters on Coronation Street.  while i think that is cool, i think it's also woefully unrealistic... i wish we had 4 gay people on our street :(  it's not fair.

changed clothes 18000 times.  everything was too scratchy.  or too short.  or too long.  or too pinchy.  or too ugly.  or too twee.  and everything was waaaaaay too annoying

drove to Coventry, Rhode Island.  which wasn't as far as it looked on the map (Rhode Island is cool like that ;) 

tried on a million coats and hated them all equally

bought hair color to eliminate the red in my hair.  not that there is any but i want to keep it that way :|

bought an entire cart of bird food (it's cold outside...)

procrastinated over Autocrat coffee syrup for hours.  i didn't get it (i didn't know what i would do with it except pour it over icecream, and icecream is always a bad idea.....)

sang along to Hunky Dory on the ride home and Danny fell asleep (because we sing like angels, clearly!!)  

had lunch at Bertucci's

wondered about the man with the fake-looking beard and odd glasses that don't suit him.  i have always thought he must be the CEO of Bertucci's who is 'working there' on Undercover Boss.  but he's always always there.... and as Aaron pointed out, there are never cameras following him.  hmmm curious.

tried on a million more coats in L.L. Bean.  blah - everything had a fatal flaw: no zippers on the pockets or too long or too lightweight or too heavy or too much money or too middle-aged (i'm obviously 12) or too jewel-toned or two-toned.  it was just AWFUL :(

went to another L.L. Bean because hey, i'm no quitter :)  tried on a squillion more coats and finally, as i was about to die of exhaustion and exasperation, i found my glass slipper coat.  zippers on the pockets!  extra pockets for tissues and gloves!  a little peek in the hood.  black, just black (and no soccer mom splashes of purple or silver)  i bought it!!  i have a coat!!!!

drove home via a stop in Middleboro - the city where you can't curse.  which is ironic seeing as it's the most annoying little asshole of a place.  cursing in Middleboro is essential to your survival - or you might spontaneously combust out of sheer frustration.

listened to Jilted John and ate a Mars Bar.  and Maltesers.  and cursed Middleboro for being the asshole of Massachusetts

danced around the closet in my new coat

curled my hair

straightened it

cuddled with dogs :)

winding roads through Rhode Island
reenacting my worst nightmare - my child being carried away by a huge pigeon :|
  don't worry, it was just a painting :)
 my favorite boots ever (hated Hunter, loved Tretorn... go figure)
Danny did judo bootcamp all weekend long... he is EXHAUSTED
 see that man in black on the left?  he's an undercover spy. 
i'm scared to get a picture of his actual face in case he has me assassinated.
that man on the right?  patience of a saint and always lets me have his burnt crusts:)
ps the merging of the photos is meant to be bad - shhhhhhhhhhhhh
