Dec. 26th, 2006 10:49 pmWent to the market today and Hager Arcade. Was just going to get a bottle of Jazz...but then I was really tempted to try something I've never heard of before. Steel Chardonnay. I like Chardonnay. This was different than other Chardonnays I've had. Less.....umm....diminutive? The flavor is larger. I can't think of any other way to describe it. Very green-apple aftertaste. After a bit of back and forth I got both.
Went out to Parck City, which was amazingly not busy. Went to Borders and decided to use some of my gift cardage. Got a copy of Ovid's Metamorphoses, and I was going to get the Gilded Tarot...I've wanted it for months now. But another one caught my attention, and I anded up getting the Archeon instead. The artwork is amazing. i asked if I could unwrap it to see before I bought it, and I love it. I also got a couple of Ghirardelli Peppermint Bark bars.
For giggles, I flipped through New Witch magazine. I liked it when it first came out, but I'm not really a fan anymore. It says that it's a "pagan" magazine, but it's really Neo-Wicca-centric and I never find anyhitng that makes it worth buying. The letters to the editor were interesting, like the one in the current issue from a woman who reads Sage Woman...a magazine by the same publisher that I just can't stomach to even flip through most of the time. So she decided to write in and let them know that she read the magazine for the first time and -oh my- it was so strange to read a magazine that lets men and women write for them. I believe her exact word was "foreign". Yeah! I mean men are allowed to write for magazines now and everything! What's next?
I have enough left on my gift cards that, with the 30% off coupon they gave me for next week, I can get the book of Greek temples that I've wanted for a bit now. I'll get the dvd's another time I guess...
I'm going to have breakfast with Jon in the morning, and I'll be leaving to come back to Baltimore tomorrow afternoon. This has been a much less stressful Christmas than the ones I've had since I moved to Baltimore.
And for the record, I am SO not a fan of country music. (edit: but OMG, Gretchen Wilson...wearing glasses? Umm....wow. I'll just turn the volume down. Mom's not watching the TV anymore.)
