the plan v. what happened

My plan, upon waking up this morning:

  • Get a haircut

What I actually did:

  • Get a haircut
  • Run to Best Buy to get a new screen protector for my phone, and maybe the new Zelda if they have it (they didn't)
  • Run to Home Depot cause oh yeah our blinds broke a day or so ago (had to message wife to ask her to measure the window cause I forgot to)
  • Decide to go to Gamestop a couple towns over to get the new Zelda
  • Get there a half hour before they open (they opened at noon), so decide to swing by Burger King for lunch
  • Stop in the Staples next to Burger King to look for the online only masks my wife wears, just in case. They didn't have them, but I did get some luggage tags that we need for our upcoming trip
  • Swing back to Gamestop, 5 minutes after opening. They still aren't open.
  • Wait 10 more minutes. They still aren't open, decide to go to the mall a few more towns away since they have a couple stores that might have it.
  • None of the relevant stores in the mall have Zelda either
    • But I got some lil sets from the Lego Store!
  • Drive home (in construction laden traffic)
  • Find out that Zelda was available at the Target next to the Best Buy in step 2 above
  • sigh, drink some water, and install the blinds. I'll get the game later (I mainly want it for the flight and/or down time on the trip).

So yeah I'm sweaty and pooped and by this time yesterday I was still on the computer and unshowered. Truly a kind of creature I am.

Pictured, the Lego sets I got!
