Yesterday turned out fine afterall. I didn't accomplish anything of note, work wise. In fact, I don't think I did any work at all. Yay for the weekend. The sky was gloomy when I left Lynchburg but the clouds had dispersed enough to let the sunshine in. I wandered around the crutchfields store for a bit before making arrangements to meet Beth at Ben and Jerry's. After a little ice cream and conversation we went across the parking lot's street to the Hallmark store for to buy here mum a belated birthday card. (That's where I was when I got a call from a certain West-coast friend.) After which we said a short good bye and parted company. I drove around town a bit then talked on the phone a bit then walked through the Food Of All Nations store for a bit. I was disappointed by the selection and found no authentic asian bowl of noodles type of thing to buy. They have some good looking already prepared meals there, but that isn't what I was shopping for. I then went over to Matt's house, watched the last of the UVA vs Hopkin's lacrosse game (UVA lost) and then Matt and I ate at Chili's. I had the Cajun Chicken Pasta and it was good. After that we just drove around some more (this time I was just along for the ride) through a new shopping center still under construction and out into the countryside. By that point the sun was shining brightly, the air floating clearly and the sky was... um.. being bluely. It was quite nice.
