Today, before I went to Barnes and Noble, I went to the gym and cleaned. I had a great run outside. It felt so nice to run in the breeze along the lake on N Sheridan. The sun was out and the sky was so blue. I kept a great pace, which was nice, as well. I had a shit ton of laundry to fold. It took $18 at a laundromat on Broadway last night. That is a lot. There was so much to fold. I think it was around 150 pounds...this is not an exaggeration. It was depressing having to climb the flight of stairs to my apartment after having to walk to the building from my car. But, it is done.
Well, apparently before I went to Barnes and Noble today, there was a little shoplifting incident...or a big one...however you see it. The store caught a middle aged woman placing stuff in a bag. She was taking all of the sensors off. Overall, it was around $300 of merchandise. The mall security, Barnes and Noble management and the Skokie Police Department were all involved. I heard she started tearing up. It is sad when someone has to resort to stealing to get their kicks. The woman is a regular customer from what everyone told me...which is even sadder. I hope it is no one I bonded with at any time. The biggest kick: she said she has decorated her house in Barnes and Noble...which means she has been stealing a lot. How do you decorate an entire house in Barnes and Noble? Well, it must be possible. I think it should be a new show on HGTV. Decorating for free at the expense of corporate America. What a scandal.
Well, the evening ended in rain. I have continued reading The Cardturner and learned more about playing Bridge. Tomorrow morning, Eva will be getting in at around 7:20 and it is supposed to rain. So, now it is time to think of an indoors day. Won't be too hard to think of in Chicago. Well, I think it is way past bedtime...time for some sleep so I can wake up at 6:25 and trudge along the freeway to O'Hare.
