Adele has THE best laugh. I watched an episode of 'The Graham Norton Show' today and she was a guest (it was filmed the day before the royal wedding) and I just fell in love with her and wished I knew her intimately just so I could hear her laugh. I, on the other hand, do not have a good laugh. My middle brother and I, when truly tickled, go into a silent seizure and roll all over the place, amusing the hell out of one another and irritating our mother and others around to no end, which sets us off further.
My mother will be flying out late on September 1 to go with me to the clinic (I need me some shots) and I'm looking forward to it though I'm not sure what we'll do. The clinic, obviously, and then maybe my favorite pub, show her where I work, and drive her through the nicer areas around where I live. I did that today, sort of. I received a flier from Giant Eagle's Market District and went there with J. My god is this place big! I can tell I'm an adult because I literally thought "I wonder if they will go bankrupt because they can't maintain their overhead". But they are in Upper Arlington Proper, I believe, and so might have the audience required to sustain them. Super nice. HUGE wine section with two little kiosk type things where, if you buy a wine card, you can sample up to ten wines from the sort of fountain you see for sodas at convenience stores. I've seen this sort of thing in an episode of 'James May's Road Trip' when he and Oz came to California wine country (can you tell I watch a lot of BBC America?) and figured I'd never see it. But Giant Eagle is up to date. We wandered around and looked about and I just fell in love. It would be a good place to take a date because you can get some delicious looking and smelling food and then buy some wine and sit outside on a patio. Maybe I'll take mom there. I think she'd like it because the cafe area is reminiscent of what you find on cruise ships.
Other than that, I did some laundry, cleaned, and laid around, hoping my exhaustion would stay with me so that I can sleep tonight. I took PTO today but, of course, I checked my work email and did a limited number of things there. But mainly, I vegged and felt sorry for myself and then pulled myself together.
Here's hoping tomorrow is a better day. After all, yesterday I didn't have an appointment and today I do so things are already looking up!
