Saturday

Yesterday morning, Scrappy had to get up early and go to Skate-A-Round to practice running into people and falling down or whatever it is that rollergirls do. I had been wanting to try making bagels again in a slightly different way. This time, I made everything bagels. To make the “everything” mix, I mixed 2 tablespoons grill seasoning, 1 tablespoon poppy seeds, and then I toasted 1.5 tablespoons of sesame seeds. Something in the grill seasoning that I used had something pretty spicy in it, but it ended up working better than I thought it would.

I also took Scrappy’s advice after I complained last time about it being hard to roll the dough out like a snake and then make the ends join to make the bagel. She asked why I couldn’t just poke a hole in the middle of flattened dough. I saw no reason why not and it worked MUCH better than last time. Yay, bagels!

So, while I was doing all this, Scrappy stopped at Lowe’s to buy some Sevin Dust for the backyard and came home and made a proposal. She suggested that we drop Swiffer off at Pawtropolis while I sprayed the backyard. While he was there, she suggested, we should go to the Mall of Georgia to get new 3GS iPhones! Sold!

But then, she ALSO decided to order a Drobo for Athens Media which will give us a much needed backup and storage solution at our house.

The main reason we needed to go to the Mall of Georgia instead of AT&T in Athens is that I was getting my old first gen iphone fixed so that I can jalibreak it and sell it after we got new ones. The other reason is that the Apple Store employees are super nice. Josh helped us with our new phones. It took *maybe* 5 minutes each for Beth and me to switch our accounts to the new phone. Josh was not excited about Ryan Reynolds playing Green Lantern and I agreed.

So, now we can shoot video with our phones and I finally have GPS which I have wanted for about 15 years now and they are FAST! So, thanks to Scrappy for suggesting the new phones (I might have hinted a *few* times).

Then we came home and Scrappy made pizza with tomatoes and basil from our garden while I went and picked up Swiffer.

Then we went on a walk and Swiffer chased one of the mutant grasshoppers.

After dinner, we met Scooley, Tommy, and Sarah G. at the Max Canada and had a few drinks to celebrate Scooley’s early birthday and Scrappy’s late birthday. While we were there, a traveling band came wandering up the street and through the bar.

Sarah said that they were from the Randy Bewley memorial at the 40 Watt.

Never mind about that.

Now, let’s see what Sunday has to offer…
