Road Trip! San Antonio!
Now that the Writer's Strike is officially over, the writers will be back to work by Wednesday...but will your favorite show be back before Christmas? Check this list from TV Guide...apparently the hour-long dramas won't be seen before September (Heroes, Pushing Daisies, I'm looking at you)...Oh well, as long as 30 Rock comes back, we'll be good...we've done really well this Winter, we've been watching other cable shows, Netflix movies/tv and Dr. Katz...he rules...
Some days (most days) start out quiet and slow, and build to a momentum...yesterday we flew out the door and didn't get home until late...but we had a great time...it was a road trip to San Antonio, after I picked up Amelie from the doctor- she seems great...they said they removed lots of the sludge from her, and she was pumped full of fluids...she seems back to normal, running around and being her sassy self...
After she ran under the bed to settle down, we headed down the road to San Antonio for a day trip, hunting for the elusive MacBook Pro 17" Glossy screen...there seemed to be none in Austintown, and we located a few after hunting online, so off we went...
Its been ages since either of us had been to SA, but we're still pretty familiar with the town in general, especially the North part where we've been to Fiesta Texas and various yarn shops...Brian used to do consulting for David Robinson (of the Spurs) and he lives in the same general area, so it was just a matter of using my iPhone to map our location and find the shops we were looking for...And we had a blast, the Apple store was jammed with folks, but we dodged in and out w/ our goodies, then off to a PF Chang's lunch, then off to the Mini dealership for a quick test drive (the Mini Cooper S is really fast! and fun! and there were a bunch of Mini's in the dealership for servicing, so we could see variations of choices available...neat!)...And a stop at the massive outlet mall to the Polo shop to stock up on bath towels and then a jaunt home...
I think today we are staying home and I need to give the yard a good soaking...the blackberries are starting to put a few little sprouts on them, and everything needs a good drink...Nigella is making a peanut butter fudge sauce...she's such a goddess...
