Or something like that. I’m not sure.
Today was Beth’s last day at school, so my days spent at home with Kirstin are more or less over, at least on the ‘regular’ basis. That means a bit of a return to productiveville for me, which will be a Good Thing. But it’ll be a bit of a bittersweet thing. No more sleeping in a bit later while Kirstin takes an early morning nap…or feeding and entertaining her while watching The Price Is Right.
We had the annual church choir party tonight, which was a good time. The turnout was really quite poor, though, which was a bit upsetting. Who knows what happened. One of the streets adjacent to the location of the party is currently completely closed while they do work, so parking was a bit interesting. But maybe there were other things going on as well. At any rate, it was still a good time.
When we got home from said event, Beth encountered a loose dog in our yard. It happened to be Koshka. Her swivel chain connector thing (I forget what they’re called off hand) finally broke loose, so she was loose in the yard. Fortunately, we’ve got a bit of a ‘pack,’ so she didn’t go too far. It didn’t take long to temporarily fix the situation, and I’ll get a new swivel tomorrow. But the thing lasted around a year and a half, so that’s not too bad.
In other completely random news, this post is quite disconnected. At least that’s how I feel I’m writing.
Anyway, back to the random news I really intended. A few of my boss’s kids were going to rent some movies, and I asked them if they could find out if one local place had ‘Shaun of the Dead’ as it’d been recommended to me. They came back and apparently didn’t find the title at the one location. So I called the other video store in town and asked, to be told (off the cuff, I might add) by the employee that they had two copies and he could set one aside for me if I liked. I told him it’d not be necessary (since the earliest I’d rent it would be this weekend anyway), but that I was just curious. So I’m not sure if it’s more interesting to find out that a small town video store actually had the video (let alone two copies), OR if the fact that the guy knew exactly what I was talking about without looking anything up is more strange.
Who knows…but I know that I’ll have to finally rent this movie to see what it’s all about. Minda recommended it some time ago and it came up the last time she was here.
Anyway, seeing as how I really don’t have anything else to ramble about, I’m calling it a night.
Until next time…
