Meijer

Yesterday was an uneventful day. I got up and went to work like any other day I work 9-5. While at work I couldn't find a tape with some footage I needed on it. That kind of blew, but I am going to try and work my way around it.

After work I went running with my sis again. I kept thinking it was going to rain, and hoping it would, but alas it didn't. When we got to the park on this dreary not quite as warm day there was a ranger in the booth for park passes. Of course there was, I wasn't prepared for it today. I had to scramble to get my money out, that I luckily had, to buy the '08 pass. When I pulled in the ranger also told me I had a headlight out. I think this must be going around. Ando just changed his headlight about a month or so ago and Jenster changed hers last week. So now it is my turn. Teed told both of them that their headlights were out so I was going to wait for him to tell me too, but then decided to try and change it myself. I have a feeling that is going to make for a good blog tomorrow. Everything I have read says it is hard to change the headlight on a VW, go figure. I think VW makes everything hard on purpose.
OK, back to the run. It wasn't as bad as the day before, but we also ran a mile less since we really didn't feel like going and just went yesterday. Going 3 miles around a 2.5 mile path sucks. It is so demoralizing running past that start/stop line knowing you should be finished, but are adding on to get in an even 3 miles. I almost prefer adding the extra mile through the woods and not passing the start/stop line.

After running I went to Meijer to pick up a new headlight and eggs. That is all we needed, but of course that is not all I bought. There was a huge clearance sale that I had to stop at and look at all the crap. From far away I thought there was nothing good, but of course upon closer inspection I found some stuff worth buying. This included some Christmas decorations and a vase. I needed to get out of the clearance section fast before I picked anything else up. But going to the grocery side didn't really help. I picked up the eggs, but then say yogurt was on sale so I picked some of those up. Then I remembered we needed some shredded, or sprinkle if you are Jenster, cheese. I walked past the meat section and saw chicken on sale so I had to pick some up since we are out. Sorry if that offends any non meat eaters out there. Needless to say I probably should have picked a cart when first walking into the store instead of a basket. My basket was overflowing by the time I made it to the checkout line. Don't worry Teed the line was long and my bananas ripened while I was standing there. They need to open more lines on a weekday after work.

The rest of the night was just eating dinner and watching The Amazing Race from Sunday. Nothing terribly exciting.

I bought a gift for Ando, but he didn't get me anything(i.e. ring)
