Sunday Delights

For every bad day there has to be a good. This Sunday was one of those. Even with the lost hour—which actually helped because I went to bed earlier—every added up today to make it a fun one.

First Naomi and I went shopping. She wanted to go to the zoo but with my sleeping in—it wasn’t going to happen. I’m not normally thrilled by my night hours but I wasn’t in a zoo mood so it all balanced out. We went dress shopping to find her a dress for a wedding next weekend. I ended up getting her to by a sexy little halter-top dress in aqua.

This is only important because she’s a bigger girl—she says it herself—so convincing her to try on something so sexy and daring was very different for her. And it looks really great. Hot actually. (Of course I then ended up buying a pair of really cute pants that are just hot and drrty…)

After that I came home and changed to take Nick out for his birthday dinner. This is a huge step forward for us and I was really nervous. But it went well even though I did order something that I couldn’t eat. I have an odd phobia of eating meat on the bone in public—I just find it nasty. But the spinach was good and the caser salad was better and so I managed to eat something. And the meal was rather surprising but that will be a whole other post.

And finally Kirby and I met up later and had coffee and waffles. We just hung out and talked—about writing and her film class presentation, clothes (however briefly) and more about ourselves then the usual rehashing of everyone else.

At the end of the night it was stress-free and rather fun day. Though I did find time to get sucked into a rather bad film. Those are 2 hours I will never get back. But it can’t all be perfect.
