It was too hot to cook yesterday, so we went to D'Angelos for subs (we still had $ leftover from last weekend's budget). Of course, when I got home I felt guilty for the inevitable rot of the food in our fridge if we didn't do something with it, and it had cooled down a bit so we decided to cook anyway. There's some turkey chilli and grilled jerk chicken in the fridge for later use. I can't wait to see what we get in our first farm share tonight, and figure out what to do with it :)

After cooking Brian and I sat on the front porch for a while, he with a laptop and me with either bubbles or a book. Its nice to have a bigger porch, have a place that's nice to sit, and have random passerbys that say hello. The crazy wind and rain moved us inside to sit near open windows to continue the breeze. Brian continued to geek (shocking) with the laptop and after reading some more I picked up my knitting. I have about a month to finish nephew's Gryffindor scarf for his birthday.

In not fun news, a squeak noise started coming from my front left wheel last night. Its very similar to the brake pad noise (squeal when I'm moving, stop when I'm braking). Its a good thing I'll have my butt parked at Saturn on Saturday morning anyway for the 120k tuneup (where they check the brakes). It may serve to be one expensive morning (ouch), so I'm waiting to pay bills until after that's taken care of.

Damn humidity. At least in Boston we don't have to deal with it too much during the year.

Is anyone going to goffee tonight? Brian and I were pondering it, but it wouldn't make a lot of sense if nobody else was going . . .

We did the "too hot to cook, let's go to D'angelo's" thing Tuesday night. It's a brilliant plan!

I love it when you two get into domestic mode! It is so cute! :)

Humidity sucks. I am in Myrtle Beach again and it is around 100 with the heat index. I have to carry around a cloth with me or else I am blinded by the sweat running off my forehead. Just miserable. And no monkey, to boot. :(

re: Car - I THINK I've heard that before in my old baby *sniff* but I'll be damned if I can remember what it is. Seems like everytime something went wrong, it was the caliper, so yes indeed, ouch.

In other news my Check Engine Soon light is on again. Stupid dealer, but THIS time one of the MEN knows what it is. I hate that I hate the women there!

On a different topic, everyone at my new job wears cute open toed shoes, with pedicures, and I'm being a lemming. Interested? I'll have to do some spa research, and I don't know what your schedule looks like. Lemme know.

Heh, I did jerk chicken last night as well, but we were out of charcoal so ended up sauteeing it instead of grilling. And sat on my back porch for a while watching the rain come down.
