productive sunday

rmToday I have managed to:
- Go to Costco. This is both time consuming and not. I'm very mission oriented there, and it's only a little more than a half-mile from our house. I walk over with a granny cart and wheel it all back. That said, we also live on the fourth floor of a walk-up, which means once I get the stuff home I have to ferry it up the stairs in handfuls. Not so bad with a few packages of chicken tikka or gluten-free basil meatballs. Sorta of sucky when it's a case of vitamin water (although $16 for a case of 20 as opposed to the $40 it would cost individually at the bodega is worth it). So it took four trips up and down the stairs to get all the groceries in and the cart up and away, but now I have the previously mentioned food, gluten-free rainbow cake (Passover: good for the Jews, good for the celiacs) and shampoo & conditioner.
- Go to Macy's and _not_ buy a couple of shirts I sorta decided I loved (in a "wow, these are hideous" way) in the boys department because they weren't that cheap, they don't go that well with my suits, and the collars are always a little wonky on the boys shirts, and I'll be finally choosing fabrics for some shirts I've already paid for from Duchess soon. I did get a sweater vest and a new tie though.
- Do work.
So now I am going home and watching a bunch of White Collar, which I suspect I'll like but not be moved by. Torchwood is such a fucked up and spotty show, but it's set a pretty high bar emotionally in terms of my response to it. So there you go.
Loved how light it stayed out today, even if it was a very dim, grey miserable light.
Tomorrow: tons of work and Indian food with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

Date: 2010-03-15 03:37 pm (UTC)Charcoal fine houndstooth (so it's a "dark" suit and doesn't read as anything other than a black suit, but isn't a black suit) with burgundy vertical stripe lining. I'm getting the waistcoat with the big silver paisley lining/back.
The big paisley lining fabric on waistcoats was the one thing all four of us got in common. :)
