I had to run some errands this afternoon.
I had an appointment at the local VA to draw blood, because the vampires were thirsty. Well, they SAID that it was for an upcoming appointment with a local endocrinology clinic. OK, 😉 whatever works.
Then, since I was in the area, I stopped and picked up a few groceries. The checkout clerk was very flirty, but seemed like a nice guy. I thought he was that way with all the women customers, but not so with the woman who was behind me. Add one point to the daily gender-affirmation log.
I was going to stop and get gas, but the gas stations on the north end of the city wanted $2.99 - $3.17 per gallon. The Jeep was thirsty, so I headed back to the south of town, just a few blocks from my place, and filled up for $2.79 a gallon.
I saw on the news that Trump is now imposing a 100% tariff (effective 1 October) on all movies not made in the USA, as well as name-brand pharmaceuticals and furniture.
Fortunately, I get my drugs for free through the VA, and I just ordered my last piece of furniture (for now) on Amazon. It will be here on Wednesday. It is a PINK tall office chair. Some call it a drafting chair because in a strong wind... no, that's not right... because it is counter-height, so it fits a drafting table or a standing desk. I am hoping it will work for my workbenches.
The store didn't have much selection of boneless, skinless chicken thighs, but their gizzards were on sale. I picked up a couple of packages and some deviled egg potato salad for dinner.
Just another day in the life of Lori Dee. 😀
