A fun afternoon

nockergeekWell, I did end up getting out of work a couple of hours early, so Z and I did some running around this afternoon. We went out to the local comic shop, since it had been a couple of weeks since we last visited. Ordered a copy of Maggie's comic, picked up a book for my dad, a new character portfolio for my paladin in Garrett's game, and a Season of the Crane cardbox (since I missed every SotC tournament recently).
Then, on the way to Target to pick up some essentials, I get a whim that we should go out to Zio's for dinner. Z hemmed and hawed for a second, but her love of Italian food and tiramisu won out over her sense of frugality. We went, had a delightful dinner, and spoiled ourselves a bit.
Afterwards, we did our shopping at Target, then ran by Barnes and Noble to tell Mags that a new Lain book she's been waiting for was in at the comic shop. Oh, and that, according to the Magic Date-ball we saw at Target, I should take her out on a date. (Who am I to question the wisdom of the Magic Date-ball?) On the way out, I saw that the latest Laura Joh Rowland novel starring Sano Ichiro, Black Lotus, was out in paperback, so I picked up a copy. I love samurai detective fiction.
So, all in all, we had a great afternoon. We probably spent a little more money than we should have, but I don't really care. We've been so good about being tight lately that we had to splurge a little. We didn't go crazy - just a little spending. :)
And we get to go out again this weekend to see Resident Evil! Milla Jovovich gets naked and kills zombies (although not necessarily at the same time.) It's going to be fun!
