It took a lot for me to get moving today after getting so much done yesterday. I really just didn’t feel up to going out to face the world. After forcing myself out of the apartment I feel somewhat accomplished.
The world really feels small sometimes. Today while returning the U-Haul dolly, which we forgot to return yesterday, the person working the counter was a brother of an old friend of mine whom I haven’t seen in years. Unfortunately he was the only person working behind the counter as his counter part had yet to arrive. So with about 6 people waiting in front of me, I dug in and patiently waited. While waiting I chatted with a few other people who were waiting. So it got to be my turn, and after the usual, “I know you routine” and a quick catching up it was time to move on to business. All in all, it took about an hour to return something, lesson learned is never go to the U-Haul on a Sunday.
On the way back, I decided I should go do a little grocery shopping at the Trader Joe’s which is really close to my new home. Holy shit was it a mad house in there. Compounded by the fact I have never been this one, and haven’t shopped in a very long time, suffice to say it took me a while to get through there and I still don’t think I got everything I was looking for. After I finished wandering the aisles, I even attempted to make a little small talk with the attractive checkout girl. :) ahh beautiful women. So after the usual “Hi, how are you doing today”, I asked her when the best time was to shop here, she said during the weekday mornings were good. She even told me that she was dreading working this Wednesday. I then mentioned I just moved back here, and I think I got a little shy after that, because she asked me where I moved from. I stutterd a little bit and managed to say “South East Arizona, south of Tucson”. Maybe I should go back Wednesday and test the waters with more small talk.
So yah, today I pushed myself both physically and mentally. This feels kind of difficult getting my life back on track. Anyways I’m hurting pretty good right now, and I’m quite hungry as I haven’t eaten since last night. I’m glad that I went shopping and picked up some easy to make stuff. Mmm. I really missed Trader Joe’s.
That’s my day so far. I wonder if Egon will call me about going to see Beowulf in 3D at the Spectrum.
