Y5 D222

Today is 222. Funny since B and I were talking about Room 222 the other night. Yeah, I am old go away. Anyone else remember that show? Good because then you'd be old if you did. We were talking about Golden Girls and Maude and how everything back then was a spinoff of everything else. For those who don't remember Happy Days was actually a spinoff of Room 222. There's your useless trivia for the day. Enjoy.

Anyway, yeah I am in a pretty good mood today. We took care of B's birthday present yesterday. A month early, but we had to do it. I am sending her home for her birthday for a week. I took care of the plane ticket yesterday. This will be the first time she has seen her family since June. She is super excited even though it is a month away still. As a result we ended up going on a bag search yesterday. We went to the mall and to a couple of stores. She found a nice 19" wheeled carrier for only $70. It is perfect for her. Light enough to carry around airports, small enough to almost go under a seat if need be, but not too bulky if it has to go in the overhead. Success.

We also looked at rings while we were out. Yes, those kind of rings. She is a very realistic person thank goodness. She isn't one of these women who wants a $5000 ring and is a spoiled brat about it. Sometimes it's nice being with someone from the midwest. They have much more realistic expectations about things. She found some nice ones from $1500-$2000. Doable. Still crazy, but within reality. Plus it made her happy to be looking at them and that's what really matters.

We had a quick dinner out of some greek food then headed home. We then had another Grey's marathon. She loves that show. I find it amusing at times but also a bit whiny. There are certain characters and story lines I don't like, but I don't hate watching it.

So far this year is starting off pretty well. Only 364 days to go.
