Today's lunch table looked nothing like the one above. Instead, today's meal was at the Mexican restaurant down the hill from me, lunching with a friend from the Census.

Given how cloudy the skies looked when I got up, I wasn't enthusiastic about getting dressed and out in the world as Marian today. What made things worse, is when I started to use my electric razor, one of the rotating blades wasn't being held in place. Unfortunately, I couldn't fix this problem and had to place a rush order with Amazon for a replacement. In spite of this, I was able to get myself made up and out the door in time for lunch.
It was nice to meet my friend again for our monthly lunch, and we caught up on what was going on in each other's lives. All too soon, lunch was over and we parted until next month. After we parted, I went to Kohl's to drop off a broken silicone vegetable steamer I'm returning to Amazon. One of the 3 legs were broken, and another didn't have a silicone sheath over a plastic leg. Luckily, I don't have to cook in my non-stick pots and pans for a while. Then after that, It was off to Poughkeepsie to do some shopping at Target and Lane Bryant.
A little while back, I bought some sexy lingerie to wear at home. And when I saw the robe in the above picture, I felt it might be the perfect compliment to some lingerie I bought 2-3 weeks ago. (Sometimes, a T-girl wants to wear pretty things, even if her body doesn't do these garments justice.) Unfortunately, I didn't see this garment in Lane Bryant, although the site said it could be found in the store. (I guess I'll have to mail order it soon.) Once done with Lane Bryant, it was off to Target to see if I could find a really cheap electric razor - which none were in my price range. So I guess that I'll have to make do until the replacement shaving head comes in a day or two.
Now, it was time to go home. Before I started off, I found that we might yet have another weather related delay in scheduled driveway/parking lot work - I'm glad I can use my brother as a fall back. In addition, I finally got a response from my sleep doctor - he says that he hasn't received the results of my sleep test. AARGH! This is hard to believe. But I'll have to accept this for now, and will complain if I don't have more information when I get back from Bermuda.

While writing this entry, NYC's Mayor has just been indicted by the Feds. It'll be interesting to see what happens in local politics, as NYC only votes Republican when the Democrats have gone too far - and this is too far for most of us....
