So... now I'll jump back to the end of the weekend saga, just because it's funny.
I was feeling down, before the work in the garage boosted my spirits. Then, since my home team was playing a local team, I figured I'd get some garlic parmesan wings and onion rings and watch the football game - not *that* kind of football, TTD. NQ has had plenty of time to get used to the term. Anyway, I just sat down and ate a couple rings and hadn't touched the wings yet (to the dismay of the begging cat!) when W texted me and asked if I wanted to order a pizza before she came over and we could eat while she did some laundry and then we could head out to the book store!
Yikes!!!!! I had completely forgotten she was coming.... so, I put the wings and rings in the oven on low heat and ran across the street and ordered a pizza.
