Once again I've lost track of days. I woke up thinking this was Saturday, and apparently missed Thursday altogether by mistaking it for Friday. I look at the kitchen and see that I didn't even eat dinner Thursday night. I guess I'll have it for breakfast today. Well sure, why not? I always appreciate a good excuse to drink a beer in the morning. The problem is I don't feel like cooking. When do I?
Because Safeway substituted a half dozen donuts for the dozen I wanted I'm now out until I go shopping again. And then I failed to order milk, so I'll soon be out of that too, and I ordered only one bottle of orange juice, which will also soon be gone. This means there must be another shopping trip this week. I'm aiming for Monday, since there was nothing on Safeway's Friday sale I wanted, and the other store does have one item on its Monday sale I'd like to have. But four mornings without donuts! I do have some cake, but it's rapidly turning stale. I could bake a batch of Pillsbury cinnamon rolls, If I remember, but I'm the guy who can't even remember what day it is. What are the odds? Not good.
Today is supposed to be balmy, and I should probably look on this as an opportunity to air out the apartment, but I'm not feeling cheerful. I'd like the weather to suit my mood, because altering my mood to fit the weather is never easy. The good news is that next week (a week from today in fact) we could be getting another rainy spell underway. Not only can we use the water (and any fresh snow that might come to the mountains) I'm sure my mood will still be appropriately dismal then. It almost always is any more. The next few sunny days I'll just have to suffer through. I've done it before. And it will be an excuse for still more beer. A silver lining, even with no clouds! I'll take it!
