This is the first Sunday in several weeks that I haven't had ANY plans, at all, i.e. none. This means I got to sleep in (8:30 + 1/2 hr contemplating getting out of bed), eat cookies for breakfast, completely chill out, do dishes (50% done...), laundry, clean, fill up bird feeders, take out the garbage, play ALOT of Bloons Tower Defense 4, and more. And, it's only 3:55 p.m. That means I still have 6-7 more hours to do stuff, or not. I LOVE SUNDAY!
Among all of the exciting activities listed above I also spent my iTunes gift card and downloaded a crap load of music:
Sonic Youth, Goo, with one of my fav Guitar Hero songs to play 'Kool Thing'
K'Naan, Troubadour, which I am totally digging right now
Great Lake Swimmers, Song Sung Blue, which was only $3.99 - Woot woot!
Up in the Air Soundtrack, because I couldn't get enough of the 'This Land Is Your Land' (the Sharon Jones, & The Dap Kings version)
D'Angelo, Voodoo, due to a friend's recommendation as the musical manifestation of sex, and it is pretty sexy and funky
I paid a bit more than the gift card but I am very excited about all the new tunes. I love the music I have I'm just a bit bored with it so having some stuff to listen to for a while adds to my overall well being, etc. I still have to get a new car stereo, but at least I got to listen to it as I did dishes and chores today. And, I'm updating the old iPod for good measure.
I also spent $70ish of my Starbucks gift card horde on Friday and got a few pounds of coffee and gifts for my secret pal (it's a work thing, and our last gift-giving is Tuesday). I had over $100 bucks in gift cards and my wallet is getting stretched out. I still have quite a few gift cards to use up, not just Starbucks, but I have at least made a respectable dent in the pile. Spending gift cards feels like I'm getting things for free, though technically I am spending someone's money, which I really enjoy.
I guess that's it for now.
