I’m sitting here waiting for the guys in IT to update a program so that I can use another program to generate a list of candidates for graduation to be approved so they can actually graduate. (Just wanted to see how long a sentence I could write.) I’ve been waiting for them to do this for two days, but have been assured that it will happen today. Riiiiight. While I’m waiting for them to do that, I’m blogging.
I have an agenda for tonight. I will get on the subway after I get out of work, and head to Astor Place so that I can buy good wine for cheap at the liquor outlet. I need something to bring to Rick’s sister’s for Thanksgiving, and I’m thinking a nice Merlot from Australia would do the trick. But I refuse to pay Park Slope prices, so I’m going into Manhattan, where I can get just such a bottle for $7. And we’re not talking Thunderbird or Blue Nun, either. This is good wine. From Australia and South Africa. While I’m there, I might pick up a bottle of Shiraz or three for me. So easy to become an alcoholic at these prices - I love this city. Mmmmm, Shiraz. And hey, there’s a Tower Records in the neighborhood, so I might have to get the new U2 cd (”Uno! Dos! Tres! Catorce!!”) and look for the Barenaked Ladies holiday album. I feel a need to hear the Dreidel Song, dammit.
And then I will go home and drink wine and rock out to U2 while updating my iPod playlist. I’ve got plans, baby. Big plans.
