I had a pretty good day today. Every now and then I just get the urge and I take off driving somewhere. I didn't have much to do at work. I had planned to go to my dad's, but since I left the stuff I needed to take to him at home, I headed for Colorado Springs. It drives Marcus crazy when I do that. We used to live down there and I kind of miss it. It's so dang pretty there. I love looking off to the west and seeing Pike's Peak looming there. If I had a really good paying job, I wouldn't mind living there again. We were really, really, really poor the last time. I used to sell my plasma so we could eat every week. *shudder* I used to doorhang flyers on people's doors, too. I was amazed how familiar all those neighborhoods I used to walk were. It's been like seven or eight years since we lived there. I was also floored by how big the Springs has gotten. Oh, well. They got some snow last night. I like checking out craft stores, so I did that. A lot of the stores I used to frequent are totally gone now. I was kind of sad. I guess they can't compete with Hobby Lobby, Michaels and WalMart. :(

I cut Marcus' hair for him tonight. I also cut my knuckle. Owwww. I messed up the back a bit, but that's the risk he takes to save a few bucks. I'm all covered in tiny little hairs and I itch like crazy, but I can't take a shower until he cleans up the mess of hair in the bathroom. We also discovered (at a really bad time) that we are out of vacuum cleaner bags and the one in the vacuum is totally full. I wish the somebody who used the last bag would've mentioned it. Oh, well, I'll get some tomorrow.

I saw something really funny today. I was behind one of those trucks that pump out septic systems. I think the company was Colorado Pumping. Anyway, the saying painted on the back said "A Royal Flush beats a Full House." Hee Hee
