No way!!

Well, as it turns out -- YES way!! Yay!

I was at the checkout at Target (I know, I know -- GLBT-folks are supposed to be boycotting Target right now b/c of their financing of some anti-queer candidate, but I can't help it. Target has a great price on environmentally-friendly cleaning supplies...) Anyway, there I was at the checkout, leaning on the counter-thingie there, extremely tired, when what to my wondering eyes should appear but a rack full of movies and there sat Edward Scissorhands, plain as day; not only one of my very favorite films of all time, but one of my very favorite Halloween movies, to boot. I don't know, are we supposed to watch this at Halloween? I always do (along with drinking a bottle of Halloween red wine -- something dark and brooding that goes well with popcorn). Anyway.)

I thought, well, I have the video and I don't really need to spend any extra money right now, though it would be nice to own the movie in DVD... Then I suddenly saw the price and I was like, get the fuck out of my way, people!! Actually, nobody was in my way, but it was very dramatic, the speed with which I snatched that up and practically threw it at the checkout lady before she had a chance to total my bill. I mean, for 5 bucks, you can't not buy it, right????

Now all I need is some sort of fantastic bottle of red and I'll be all set.

Okey-dokey, gang! I'm back in front of the laptop to take another stab at that short story I scrapped yesterday and I'm also baking a batch of chocolate chip cookies!! Yay and double-yay!! What can I say? It's rainy and chilly outside. I've already made a pot of pureed squash soup, so what's left to do on a day like today besides bake yummy and terrifically fattening cookies? (Of course the dangerous part is that I live alone now. I wonder who's going to be eating 4 and 1/2 DOZEN chocolate chip cookies?? Hint: "I'm investigating things that begin with the letter 'M'..." ha ha ha.)

All righty, then! I'm outta here. Thanks for visiting, gang! See ya!
