Sweet Surrendor

Today I am home from work. I woke up this morning and felt like a pile of...well, you know what I mean. I called the office and told my favorite annoying co-worker that today I will not be coming in. While she proceeded to tell me that it will be hectic at the office while I'm not there I had already started thinking about how I will spend my day. When I hung up the phone I think she was telling me to get better soon, I'm not sure, I barely listen to her most of the time.

The plan:
Pray Lily sleeps in so I can sleep for just another hour or two.
Wake up, call Mom and see if she can watch Lily for the day while I get some much needed rest and work on some house chores.
Run to the grocery store and pick up some pork chops for dinner tonight. I've been hungry for pork chops lately and I know exactly how I'm going to make them.

The outcome:
YES! I got to sleep in until 8:00am! Damn that felt good.
Lily and I got up and each grabbed a breakfast bar and some juice. I called my Mom and YES she will watch Lily for a few hours. So we get dressed and grab a few random things Lily feels must accompany her to Grandma's today. (Everyday it's something different. Today it was a huge bear, I would have rather left at home and an old cell phone of mine that I let her play with.)
And we're off. Conveniently Burger King is on the way so we swing through drive-thru and grab a bacon, egg and cheese croissant and some french toast sticks.

I spent a couple hours over there relaxing and talking with my Mom when I remembered the pork chops, so off to the grocery store I went.
While at the grocery store I couldn't help but notice all the weird looks I kept getting. I'm wondering "what the hell are these people looking at" when it dawned on me...I probably look some what crazy in my pink baseball hat, over sized sunglasses, ratty jeans, Adidas sandals and an over sized tshirt that says 'STOP CHECKING ME OUT'. But, what do I care...at least I know why they're looking at me now. Proceed with shopping.

So I'm home now. I've got my pork chops marinating in a salt & pepper blend. I did clean the kitchen a little bit but I really don't feel up to doing anything else but check up on my various internet ventures and lay down. And on that note, I'm going to lay down. :o)
