How jealous are you?
The original plan for today was very simple:- drop Cammi off @ Mom's & have breakfast
- go to work
- go to the mall at lunch to pick up some baby things for my girlfriend's baby shower this weekend
- go back to work
- leave @ 4 & head over to the hair cuttery for a much needed trim
- do 2 games @ Southern
- stop by the grocery store on the way home & pick up a few things for dinner
- pick up Cammi & head home to make dinner for myself & Todd & Liz
See? Simple.
The reality has gone somewhat different (you know what they say about best laid plans).
I woke up running late so didn't have time to full-on shower. It was more of a quick rinse body, rinse hair, check status of hair on legs & pits - not too bad, long skirt & sleeves will be fine. Got to Mom's when I'm usually leaving & she's on the way out. Apparently she needed to get gas because she wouldn't have time after class before she had to go to her game. Oh, and could I stop by today & let the girls out since she wouldn't be back until 7?
Ok, so breakfast in the car. No mall at lunch because I've got to go home to let the dogs out.
Can't skip the mall though because the shower is tomorrow and since I'm not going I need Liz to take it tonight. So as soon as I leave work I'm there. That means that my hair cut has to wait. Because I don't already have the gift I can't wrap it at work - not good.
Driving to my Mom's I have to pass the grocery store and while I wasn't planning it, I decided to go in. This saves me from having to do it later and allows a little time for gift wrapping after the games.
I pulled into the parking lot, got a space and started in. Then I noticed the gigantic hot dog in the spaces near the door.
Yes, you guessed it - I had happened upon the Oscar Mayer Wienermobile! I was so excited and started talking to the official "hot doggers" about it and what they're doing. There is apparently a contest to win it for a day (how cool would that be???) and they're out promoting it.
I went into the store and entered on my way out. I also got to spin the prize wheel and, even though I didn't win it I had been so excited they let me anyway, I GOT MY PICTURE TAKEN WITH THE WIENERMOBILE!!! I am so framing it and putting it on my mantle!
Like I said, I know. You're jealous.
And the bonus, as if there could be more - I did after all get a real picture with the wienermobile - I am only going to not do one thing on my list of tasks!
