Had a great day yesterday. I am in a better place. I know I pissed off our neighbor yesterday morning though. I woke up at 3. Tried to fall back to sleep and ended up getting up at 3:20. I really wasn't paying much attention to things and decided to start laundry. At 3:20 in the morning. You don't realize just how loud a washing machine is until there's no other sounds going on. When it hit the spin cycle I was sure she was going to come bounding up the stairs to chew me out. I then tried to put the first load in the dryer and man was that even louder. I swear there's a small airplane in the laundry room. I then went into the bathroom to buzz my hair and that too apparently decided to be the loudest thing in the world. But I did get at least one load of laundry and my hair completed by 4:30am. At 6:50 I went to the store to get a couple of things that we weren't able to get at the grocery store on Friday.
I have often noticed something about stores early in the morning on weekends. Yesterday proved no different, and that is how many men are at a store right when it opens on the weekend. It's like we're all up and just want to get shit done. The store I went to yesterday morning was 99% male shoppers.
Got back around 7:15 and figured it was late enough to finish laundry. Had it all done by the time B got up around 8. Once she was up we went to the thrift store to see if we could find a mate to a soup bowl/mug she found there on Friday. Unfortunately it was gone. I however found two shirts for $10. We then went to Old Navy as I wanted to see about finding a couple more shirts. See I don't have very many casual long sleeve shirts. I either have short sleeve t-shirts or dress shirts and not much in between. That's what happens when you're a Californian all your life and live where the coldest it gets is 40 on the worse days. Managed to find a couple of shirts on sale for less than $25 total which made me happy.
Got back home, put away laundry, and took a nap. We had plans to go out to dinner with this couple we met a while back. We have been horrible at being able to keep social obligations due to my schedule and we knew we had to keep this one.
When we got up I played around with Plex some more. I managed to get one directory scanned in and need to figure out why it sees 243 out of 252 directories. It's got to be a naming thing and I need to figure out why. I think I figured out one directory. Also my friend did some tests on his Apple TV for me and they still haven't fixed the damn problem of multiple season shows collapsing in the list. I don't need 10 entries of Friends when I try to scroll through the tv show list thank you.
I also did some work stuff to help knock out some stuff I have to do tomorrow.
We went out around 5:50 and got to the restaurant around 6:45. We had a great dinner of Mexican food right on the river and then we all went for ice cream afterwards. We got home around 10, hung about for a while trying to play some HP but we both were too tired.
Nothing on the agenda for today. The wind is howling and the weather is awful. I figure we will be staying inside most of the day which is fine by me.
