Poetry

I worked 9 to 5 yesterday and learned a little bit more about Final Cut, an editing system. DJ showed Watkins and I how to do some editing and some basics of Final Cut. When Watkins called last week to see when he could come up to watch some editing he asked if I wanted anything and of course I said money. Really who couldn't use more money. He brought me a beer instead, but hey that is better than a poke in the eye with a stick.

After work I went back to Target, like I said I was going to, to pick up some birthday cards. I don't like cards, they are all stupid and you just throw them away after a week. I bought two anyway, one for my uncle, that we are going to a dinner for on Sunday, and one for my mom, whose birthday is February 1st. Since I was at Target I thought I would stop in Meijer to pick a few things up. By now you should all know that I can't just pick up a few things when I go to the grocery. I was at least smart enough to realize this when I first walked in so I grabbed a cart instead of a basket. The overall bill did end up being a little less than I had expected, bonus!

At home I put away my purchases and waited for Ando to come home and see what he wanted for dinner. We made our own pizza with artichoke, turkey-roni, pepperoncini's, garlic & feta. We needed something quick since we had to go down to Publico for a poetry reading. The poetry reading was not as bad as I thought it was going to be. It was an easy set up and only 10 people read their poems. I think each person had 5 minutes or so and could read as many or as few of their poems as they wanted. We brought our own beer down to enjoy while the readings were going on. Ando also bought a Bud Lite Clamato. Yes, it is Bud Lite with Clam and Tomato juices. Nothing about it sounded appealing to me, but whatever floats his boat. Rando decided to split it with him, but go figure they couldn't finish it. I think they wanted to like it, but just couldn't in the end.

We came home and went our separate ways as usual; I watched Project Runway and Ando played on the internet upstairs. Day over.

I was upset because Xavier lost, no ring to cheer me up.
