Yaay full day off

Woke up early (7:30), puttered around the internet, then went back to sleep around 10 for a few hours. Jen was coming to town around 3, figured we could do lunch. Woke at 2, had a wonderful long kinda cold shower. Nice to be able to take your time, instead of rushing because you are late for work.

I have tons of body lotion sitting about - especially the little trial bottles from bath and bodyworks. I decided to work on using one of those, Black Cherry Current or something like that. I always remember that I don't like it for some reason, but then months later I pick it up, smell it and ask "whats wrong with it? Smells lovely!" Then I put it on. It smells good for maybe 5-10 mins, but as soon as I sweat even a tiny bit and it mixes with my body chemistry the scent changes. I've long known that scents do that, change with body chemistry, but this is the first one for which its been such a noticeable change, and for the worse. Instead of being a rich dark slightly incense-y smell with a hint of sweet cherry, it starts to stink like cheap old lady drugstore perfume. That's the only way I can think to describe it. Or maybe kinda like the smell of bunch of magazines all with different perfume samples in them mixed together. Anyways, its not particularly pleasant. I seem to work best with vanilla scents, best stick with those.

Lunch was really good today, the curry was nice and strong. Jen didn't feel like soup so I had the whole half order to myself = too much food. Ah well, that just means dinner is arranged for. Afterwards went to Heart Village for frozen yogurt. They finally had pistachio again. Mom will be thrilled. They had it once about a year ago and mom couldn't stop talking about it. We ended up not stopping back in till the next week, by which time they'd already changed it. Mom was so sad. About every other week since she has asked about it. Today was the first time I've ever seen it. It was good =) So was another new one I tried: graham cracker - yum! And of course pomegranate sorbet. Was a surprisingly good combination, not that i mixed them or anything. Heh that would probably make an awful color.

Anyways, am back home. Jen and T are at CVAAS. I'm enjoying my very expensive air-conditioning and the dark. Maybe i'll try playing wow.
