derek came to meet up with me for lunch today! a nice surprise like that is always a welcome delight in the middle of the week. it wasn't anything shocking, just a nice outing in the sun. having lunch with someone you like is always a good thing. having greasy pizza and root beer for that lunch? even better. and i had to grab a few little sweeties from the flagrantly aromatic donut stall.
after f-u-d there was time for a stroll through the market. not only did we buy gobs of freshly meat, but we stopped by a fruit stand or two. we also found a gourmet food shop in the market with all kinds of neat stuff. hp sauce! cookies a-plenty! fancy pants pastas! i could hardly believe that i hadn't shopped in this place sooner. just goes to show you how you might think you know an area - even a small area - and then you find something new all over again.
on the walk back to work we saw a little beast. a furry beast that could run like the wind. a beast asleep in a fuzzy hat. it's been a long while since i've had opportunity to hold a ferret. she was soooooooo cuuuuuuuuute! she fell asleep while resting in the hat, right in my arms. did i mention it was cuteness galore or what? fuzzy fluffy sleepy (rescued!) animal in a stocking cap. eee!
it's nice to get out at lunch.
which animal in the house is trying the hardest, even campaigning blatantly, to win the daily cute award given out in our house:
stuart foster (laying on his own head)

Well, of course Stuart knows how to bring the cute. Otherwise, he'd still be panhandling at the Nightingale. ;)
Was the ferret owned by the same guy who walks around downtown with the possum on his shoulder?
liz - true that. it was pretty much a done deal when, one night, i was the absolute last one to leave. stuart just kept staring as i walked to the car and drove away. i cried for an hour when i got home. that's how i got derek to give in.
mary - no, it wasn't the possum guy. it was some animal rescue people. but it was just as cute as the possum and its little chihuahua sidekick!
Speaking of Scooby Do, I found something for you! I found out that Tori Spelling has a blog! EEE! And she recently made a post about poo. And this made me think of you, of course. :D
Warning - it's a MySpace page with MUSIC. I hate those things. But it's worth it.
