lesliepearIt looks like a winter wonderland out there - guess I'm not going anywhere anytime soon.
It's all my fault. I bought sleds for Alan at Target yesterday (at 75% off). The only one we had was a little toddler one (and that's at my MIL's house anyway).
I did run some errands yesterday, including getting gas - but Alan stayed home and took it easy (he may have a small cold).
We picked up the Pink Panther DVD's from the library - Alan loves the Pink Panther cartoons included in the set - and he likes the action parts of the movie he saw last night (The Pink Panther Strkes Back). Me, I loved the cartoons (they'd show them before a movie in college), not a big Pink Panther movie fan. But from what I saw remaking them with Steve Martin wasn't a good idea - yes Steve Martin can do the physical stuff, but Peter Sellers was one of a kind.
Alan saw a little of the news last night. Normally I don't let him, but I don't think people in the snow talking about snow is very harmful. I try to keep him away from gross violence and adult concerns. (Mark and I discuss financial stuff - bonds/stocks etc in front of him, and he does watch cartoon violence - we aren't perfect).
Maybe I'll finally get some stuff on eBay today - ours and a friend's I offered to sell for them as they have fallen on hard time. It's probably going to be a busy day for eBay in the Northeast - people browsing and people selling. I remember back in the blizzard of 1996, they said that was the highest usage internet day up to the point!
Off to go watch Sponge Bob with Mark and Alan.
