Pie

Rain rain go away, don’t come back another day.  It’s a little soggy in my neck of the woods.  The temperatures feel much more like Winter than Spring but then again we are early in the season.  It was a good Saturday to spend in doors for the bulk of the morning.  I had my Gator for a paper weight laying on top of me, I kind of wish she would do that more often because it’s comforting to me.  She however wanted me to wake up and knew I was awake and ignoring her which made her decide to shuffle around on me.  I didn’t let it bother me but eventually I decide to give in. 

With that lunch was served for the cats.  I went back to my room and watched TV for a bit.  Then decided to get out and grab some lupper.  I hit up Cracker Barrel.  Had some Chicken Fried Chicken which was really good.  I decided to push it and ordered a piece of Buttermilk Pie.  It’s made with custard and buttermilk factors in some how.  When I first saw it on the menu a couple weeks back it didn’t sound good at all.  However, I figured today I would give it a try.  It was really sweet but good.  I had to eat it a bit slower than normal and they garnished it with fresh sliced Strawberry’s and a dollop of Whipped Cream on the side.  I was also hoping to get a glimpse of my waiter guy crush but he wasn’t around.  Ah well at least I had a good meal. 

When I was done I hit up the post office, nothing good or bad in the mail it was just the usual weekly pile up.  I was supposed to be going to get cat food but opted to come home instead.  The cats aren’t happy with me.  They have persuaded me to go back out and get their food even though we could go another day.  I will be doing that as soon as I am done with this post. 

The week is over with and I am thankful for that.  However, we have another one on tap and even though it’s only going to be 4 days it’s not something I look forward to.  However, it’s part of the circle of life I guess.  Work, Eat, Sleep. 

Bills are paid so I told the kids we can stay here another month.  Whoopie!  For some strange reason I am money ahead and one of my credit cards that is usually up actually has a $6 balance.  I hope this upward trend continues but I suspect it’s going to be short lived.  Still I am enjoying it.  Feels really nice. 

Friday is maintenance day on my vehicle.  Once that is done I think I will take a trip be it for a pizza or to the buffet.  I just need to get away and have a change of scenery even if it’s only for a couple hours.  I think it will do me good or so I hope.  As long as I don’t drop a bunch of money on maintenance I’ll be fine.  This is the time where they change filters and there is the question of how my 2 older tires are doing.  I also need a haircut, I should do that this weekend but feel like saving it for my day off. 

My DVR is empty because I cancelled my reoccurring recording of The Big Bang Theory.  The networks seem to rerun the series from the same point instead of starting at the very beginning.  I got tired of watch the same episodes over and over.  I have a few things recording tonight so that will give me something interesting to watch.  It is strange that with all of the channels and streaming content I have I still have problems finding something to watch.  It’s like picking out a restaurant. 

Oh the bidding war on my table saw ended.  I was too high and my brother gave up in frustration.  He tried to guilt me into lowering my price but I just dismissed it.  I imagine he won’t be in touch with me anytime soon because he isn’t happy with me but I could be wrong. 

Okay guess it’s time to grab that cat food.  Hope all is well in your neck of the woods.
