Sunday 27 May 2007

This morning Mom & Dad went to church, reluctantly leaving me home despite the offer of free donuts! i just puttered around until they returned, then we went shopping at petsmart, office max, office depot, and bj's warehouse club: i managed not to buy anything! (i did get mom to buy a few groceries.) mom & dad's new hobby is their 55-gallon aquarium. while they were doing some weekly maintenance on it, they accidently got the background of the tank wet and were taken aback by how beautiful it looked. they checked at petsmart and a clerk told them indeed to wet the back of the tank before applying the background, so the picture here is in fact taken tomorrow (is that cheating?) after they stuck the background to the wet glass.

after shopping we went to another ribs place, norris', to join chuck, ed, and charley for dinner to celebrate ed's birthday. kris did not join us because natalie was still sick and had spent the day in bed (they're thinking tonsilitis) and also because there is little at norris' her diet allows her to eat. i had a grilled hamburger with mushrooms and onions because i had already had ribs. so we repaired after dinner to Kris' house for birthday cake and presents.



we had a good visit, i recovered my ashtray left on kris' patio, and got in around 830p.
