Amazing Race Saturday

I’ve only seen a couple episodes of the amazing race, but this certainly felt similar. I had 2 businesses and 2 humans to schedule time with along with dealership/tire place. One gallery was a used bookstore (Bookmans) and a Dungeons and Dragons meeting was scheduled in there for 12:30pm, we didn’t figure they’d still be there at 4pm, but I had an inkling, as the last trip involved the making of chain-mail(sp?) group that ran over their scheduled time.

It’s always beautiful to drive about the area, but there were a couple freak-out times when I was afraid we’d not make it to a stop during allotted window of time. We drove by the State fair, and I smelled the cotton candy and longed to join the frocks of people loitering about on such a great day, as did Steve want to see the airplane’s looping tricks of smoke trails in the sky over Glendale. When I called the friends to meet with them they too were having envious fun brunching on chic patio restaurants, or garage sale-ing with friends but this is the time of the busy and once the art show is done I too can try to remember what things I would like to be doing besides working on the weekend.

The art festival I am in is in 2 weeks, but Steve’s family will be here, as well as Halloween next weekend so I wanted to get all done this weekend that I could. This involved:

Picking up:

• Artowork from 2 galleries
• Prints from Netherbeast movie set designer
• Chairs, cooler from friend that had party last weekend
• Material for tablecloth/Halloween costume

Not planned:

• Nail in tire
• Trip to dealership to find they don’t carry tires for my car
• Discount tire for replacement of tires
• Viewing of airshow along highway
• passing of state fair

We covered so much ground I thought it's be fun to plot it out:
