168: friday

hubby brings home the bacon and i take it to the big skillet (the bank) every friday.

this friday was business as usual.

baby bliss and i went to grandma's for a late breakfast and a nap after our bank run.

grandma is funny.

it was about 90 degrees out. grandma and baby bliss got into a discussion about the fastest way to cool off. grandma said baby bliss would cool off if she sat still and waited for the fan to turn in her direction. (that might be true for some folks, but not baby bliss. she seems to have a furnace somewhere inside. i've seen her sweat in the freezing cold.)

b.b. thought it would be better if the fan didn't oscillate and she would sit right in front of it. i'm not sure why  grandma thought that was a bad idea. *shrug*

i didn't want to hear it so i pulled out The Hindi Bindi Club and plopped in a chair for a good read. before i knew it, i was looking at the inside of my eyelids. i wanted to sleep in the chair but it was soooooo uncomfortable. i swooshed myself over to the couch and sank into a noisy sleep.

the snooze wasn't long enough and i got up feeling drowsy and irritable.

baby bliss wanted to go to the library too (now that she's no longer relegated to the kid's computers, she's a library fanatic) but we ran out of time: mr. bliss knocked off at a decent hour so we three enjoyed an early dinner-and-a-movie family night.

we saw the latest harry potter. i won't spoil it for anyone who hasn't seen it but i will say it was extremely disappointing. it seemed like an overlong chapter or short story, stretched into a movie that could have been truncated and bundled into the next one.

*sigh*

i've heard the rumors of plagiarism on the part of potter's penner. of course she was found innocent of all charges. i'm not saying the innocent verdict wasn't fair. i'm just wondering how the other movies were good and this one was just... okay.

maybe the director is to blame? i'm not sure... i am sure we won't be getting that one on DVD. baby bliss will have to read it.
