Okay.. so today is my third day off for this week, and my third day with my roommate gone. I slept until 1130am, and only got up because I knew that [livejournal.com profile] mfsfreak was coming over sometime around 1pm. See, we were invited to Charles' birthday barbecue today at 2pm.

After getting up, I decided to shower first. So, I promptly read web comics for about an hour, and then made breakfast. :) So much for responsibility. :)

On the way to Charles's place, though, I saw something that will stay with me for the rest of my life. I was at the Yale/Memphis-Arlington intersection, waiting for the light, when I saw a woman messing with something at the side of the road. It looked like she dropped it off. I thought, "dumping in Bartlett? What are things coming to?" As we went through the intersection, though, I realized that the "trash" was a BABY IN A BABY CARRIER.

I turned around, and grabbed my cell phone. I didn't know what I was going to do, but I knew I had to do something. Fortunately, I was spared, as when I got back (30 seconds later), a News Channel 3 SUV was parked by the baby, and cops were speeding towards the scene not minutes later. Feeling that everything was handled, I left. How the fuck could someone do that to another human being? Find the woman, and rip out her ovaries. That's what I say! :(

Anyway, Charles and I went to Charlie's Meat Market for the beef tenderloin, and then to Kroger for the fixins. :) By the time we got back, his wife had called to say that everyone had left already. Charles was fit to be tied, let me tell you.

Thankfully, it turned out to be a ruse, since everyone was hiding and surprised him quite well. Now, the meat is on the grill, I have a couple of beers in me, and I'm gonna end this post to socialize more. (I'd hopped on the computer to determine if Bacardi Mixers had any soy in 'em, for one of the other partygoers.)

Take care, folks, and I'll be good. :)
