'then i'll journal about my day'

Today, I got a just a wee bit of a late start on my trip. I was trying to verify my paypal account and because it's been inactive for so long, they did the whole rigamorole with me. I tried to go on line to the banking website, which I had just closed the window to, and was not allowed back on. So, I tried to call the bank. Was on hold, since it's sunday and no tellers ever work Sundays, God forbid.... for fifteen minutes before I gave up and said, fuck it. I'll do it later and high tailed it up to Columbus.

Despite the drive and the run around w/ paypal and the bank, I found myself in an excellent mood. It was nice to start the day off with a little dose of Pipsie. Even if she was (tired).

I called Dusty as soon as I arrived and was treated to her mother answering the phone. *rubs hands* This could be fun.

"Hi is Dusty there?"
"She's asleep, she got in real late last night"
".....(waiting for Dusty to get on phone)...."
"Who is this?"
"Hawk"
"From Kentucky?"
"Yep."
"Hold on, I'll go get her"
(Dusty answers phone)
"THE HAWK HAS LANDED, WAKE YOUR ASS UP!"
"I got in late last night...I'm still a bit tired."
"GUACAMOLE TIME. I've been driving for twoandahalf hours with nothing but Guacamole on my mind."
"So, we shouldn't keep you waiting too much longer..."
"Right."
"Ok, give me a minute to throw something on, I'll be there."

So, Dusty and I had a very lovely visit, I think we sat in Chipotle's dining room for the better part of two hours just chatting away about everything going on. What we are thinking about doing, what we've experienced, the coming new year, the coming movie ROTK. Lovely visit. Then, I asked her what her plans for the day was.
"Nada"

Right answer for me. Not sure if it was right answer for Miss Yawny. I showed her the way to Sunflower Natural food store where we looked around a bit and found the ultimate Vegan cookies. EXCELLENT. Dusty picked one up to try too. Her cookie was better than mine, but mine was good enough that the half that I saved taunted me the whole way home.

"Eat me" Said the cookie.
"No."
"eeeeeeeeaaat me" said the cookie.
"No. Stop asking."

(How about the double entendre in that?)

Then Dusty and I went to half price book store. The one that is frickin huge. Love it.
love it
love it.

It's as big as some libraries I've been to.

I opted out of the family excursion, unable to hook up with siblings.
So, went straight to the storage unit, got a bit more stuff, sorted a bit more trash, and went right home.

I still find myself feeling very good, and ready to clean the fuck out of the house.

rock on.

love you
