Somehow the day got away from me...
Taylor had to get up at 5:30 to be at work by 7:00. I... did not get up at the same time. They came and said goodbye before they left, but I went back to sleep, ha. I got up pretty early, but dicked around on my phone for quite a while.
Alex woke up much later, but came to pick me up once he was up and awake.
We went and ran a very long series of errands looking for some store-exclusive models that were just released for the year. Some people have already found them, but none of the stores we visited had them yet (despite the website lying and saying that some were available for pickup). We found a couple other things, and hadn't *really* expected they would have the ones we were looking for, and it was a nice enough (if extremely long) drive through neighboring cities and the empty space in between.
We saw *three* eagles. All in different areas. That was pretty exciting! I remember when seeing an eagle at all was an extreme rarity... in the last several years it's gotten to the point where it's almost a given that we'll see at least a few over the course of the summer. But three in one day! Very cool!
An offhand comment (can't even remember what!) prompted Alex to crave samosas, like we'd gotten at Pride. While that place does not have a storefront anywhere, there IS an African restaurant that we've driven by, but never eaten at that isn't too far from home.
Their website isn't the best, but we WERE able to glean that they have samosas, so we stopped by on our way home. We got two orders of beef and one order of veggie ones. They were SO good! (Small, so I'm glad we got three total orders rather than two.) We will definitely have to go back to the restaurant and actually have a sit-down meal.
I'd still love more of the curried potato samosas that we got at Pride, and may have to just order the frozen ones that she'll like... meet you at an agreed-upon location to do a shady samosa deal for. I wish she had a restaurant!
We didn't get home all that late, but then we watched three more episodes of The Sandman, which I still am absolutely loving. (I still don't want to binge too much of in one go, because I don't want to multitask while it's on. That's probably how I feel like I lost track of time.)
Dentist appointment tomorrow to get a filling. :/ I like my dentist, and am deeply grateful to her for the significant dental work that I had to have done a couple years ago... but I still don't ENJOY the process! Screw you, back tooth.

That made me chuckle. *g*

You have to admit, meeting in the Walmart parking lot to make a furtive exchange of money for a frozen package of samosas is much funnier than a restaurant or food truck.
