My Coach Dumpster

****

I didn't neglect you last night on purpose, dear diary. We
didn't have any power. The electricity went out around
4:30pm (before I got home from work) and it didn't come
back on until some time after 3pm today (so Snookie told
me). It wasn't that much of an inconvenience. Aside from
not being able to watch tv, write in my diary, pay bills
(online) or take a shower this morning, it didn't bother
me too much. I did crossword puzzles, cuddled up in bed by
candle light until Snookums came to bed with me. The time
we usually spend watching tv, we had sex. For about 3
hours. What else was there to do? Once we where all tired
out, it occured to me why the pioneers always had such
large families. When you don't have diversions like tv and
computer, what else is there to do but have sex?

Remember the Coach bag I got from Macy's in Tacoma? Well,
it went back yesterday. Snookie found one he liked at the
Bangor Exchange and he took the Holiday Patchwork Gallery
Tote back. I liked it, but the thought of what happened
tainted the way I felt about the bag. Now I've got this
HUGE bag that gets lots of attention. It's the Signature
SOHO tote in black/white/silver. I call it my Coach
dumpster, because whenever I put something in it, it
immediately falls to the bottom and I can't find it again.
Everyone at work calls it the Coach diaper bag, because
it's seriously big enough to be a diaper bag. I'm learning
to like it, though. Snookums bought it for me, with me in
mind and it is black, which is a color I've been wanting
in a Coach. He also bought me a red crocodile leather
traveling wallet that I'm in LOVE with. I may eat vegan,
but I love the smell of a real leather wallet!

I went to the gym not so much to work out, but to take a
shower. I've been seriously slacking off in the working
out department, but I've got every intention to get back
on track once Snookums is gone. I want to drop these last
20 pounds and get all toned up. That's if I don't get
pregnant first. If I do get knocked up, then that will be
put on hold for a little bit. But, I'll still go to the
gym everyday to keep in shape. However, I digress. I
wasn't the only person there to shower, the locker room
was packed. I had to hunt around for a gas station, too.
So many of them were without power, that the ones that did
have power were running out of gas. It was crazy. I hope
tomorrow things are more normal.

The mall was an interesting place to be today. The mall is
powered by two separate generators when the electricity
goes out. Well, the generator that powers the right side
of the mall was working fine, but the left side's, for
some reason, wasn't working. So, only half of the mall was
open. Of course, VS is on the right side. As much as I
love my job, I couldn't help but feel like I was missing
out on a snow day, or something. It was so busy, because
not too many places in Silverdale were open. Even the
traffic lights were out, which made getting in and out of
town a bitch. Thankfully, Port Orchard was back on line
when I got home.

I've got to go now. Snookums wants me in bed (in something
sexy) by the time he gets out of the shower. You'd think
last night would have been enough for him. I guess not.
Ciao.
