I have had a wonderful day. Clay offered to take me shopping & to dinner. I naturally took him up on the idea. I had him call to see what was open & to start the car while I grabbed my socks. Last night I accidentally put our couture pillows in the washer so I want to replace them ASAP. I read the label, really I did, but not all the way. Why don't they put the "don't put the core in the washer" in bold? Then I so would not have put them in the washer. They are still wet, even now. Well Clay called around & found that the store where we got them was closed today. Darn! He took me to REI instead. I am slowly coming to the school of thought that if your going to spend the money on clothing, make sure its worth it & a $10 pair of jeans will not last more then 3months. Sigh. When did it become common place to pay $50-100 for a pair of jean that wont fall apart in the first wash? I still cringe at the thought of paying more then $10 for a top. I tried on a few outfits at REI & it was so packed that I had to chase people out of the changing room I was using 5 times. (Get the hint people!) After REI we went to Gander Mountain. Clay Loves Gander Mountain.

I was bagging Clay for dinner buy the time we were done shopping. He asked where we were going & I smiled then directed him to Tokyo for sushi. I have been having dreams of fish for about 2weeks. Have you ever been craving something so bad that you start dreaming about it? That is where I have been. I use to eat sushi one or twice a month in Colorado, & I would live off of it if I could. I love it so. (Meow!) But Clay does not like it. Sigh, why did I marry him again? Oh Ya! I love the bloody fool.

The sushi was so good, I could not finish all of it, (my limit is 6), but still managed to have room for some green tea ice cream.  I am mad for it really. Light, cleansing & so perfect after some really great fish. (I wish I had some right now.Quiet tummy!) By the time we were all done the cat part of my mind was curled in a happy ball & purring.

At about midnight tonight Clay has to go to pick up his brother at the airport & I am debating on staying up with him or letting him go on his own. (On one hand : ) He has been very clingy lately. Ok, so my idea of clingy is any show of affection in front of anyone else, but still.... Ok, so I don't do cuddling does that make me a bad person? I do let him take my arm in public. LOL! (On the other hand : ) I think its best if I just let the boys be boys. Sometimes when you have two brothers together you just step aside & watch the fun ensue. Decisions, decisions, decisions.

I am I the only one that is just now getting all our holiday cards out? I hope not. I just found the right cards to send & I have to send a note with each one to every person so they wont think that I am just making this mass fake attempt at the art of being loving toward people. Does that sound paranoid to anyone else?
