Errands, Business and Screw-ups.

Up around the usual time — had the coffee going by the time Brian (the priest) and Nathan (the hot dog king) rolled out of the camper. Made breakfast, which I screwed up — burnt the crap out of the top of the frittata — salvaged enough for the two of them — I had leftover meat from last night.

Got the cards done for ThinkAct — one emergency card which I took to Kinko’s to get printed, and the rest will print in Montana — trying a new on-line printer that doesn’t charge so damn much for shipping – and you can submit multiple cards and keep the shipping down while getting a quantity discount.

Georgetown Kinkos — told them I needed them tomorrow, they called at 4:30 to say they were done. Got to love that. 100 cards, 30 bucks. Need them for the ThinkAct guy who is headed to Europe next week.

Got the ads for the Great Art Party catalog done, along with the ad for Poontoon — the Poetry Anthology — Studio 403 ads, did the SOB ads yesterday – still waiting for word from Goods for the Planet as to whether they are OK mentioning them.

Next stop — Lowes. Got to see if they have siding to match mine. They do — in 12 foot lengths, though not clear grain. 120 feet should be enough — and unloaded the 2x4s from yesterday’s trip as well. Screwed up and left the can of pink spray paint in the basket though — there goes $3.75.

Dinner tonight with Jameson is steaks and salad and wine. Screwed up the bread with too much salt — and guess what, it isn’t raising. Will be nice to have a quiet evening — though the four of us in the hot tub last night wasn’t bad either.
