Tonight Rob and I headed out for dinner. The only movies we're interested in seeing right now just opened this weekend (Seed of Chucky and Bridget Jones) and we didn't want to deal with the lines on opening night, so we just did dinner. We headed over to the mall in Burbank and ate at P.F. Chang's. Getting there a bit early on a Friday night is never a bad idea. The wait was only about fifteen minutes long. Dinner was good and when we were finished we looked around the mall a little bit. We stopped in Lane Bryant, Hot Topic, and looked at some of the carts set up in the mall. We didn't end up buying anything though.

There was a guy working at one of the little mall carts who is worthy of a Scarlet S. We were looking at squishy plush animals filled with some weird plastic bean like stuff. Rob asked the guy what was in them. The guy asked why we wanted to know. Rob said that we have cats who tend to bite and scratch through things. The guy said we shouldn't worry because the beads inside were non-toxic. He also said "Don't worry. They won't hurt your cats. They don't hurt me when I eat them". *blink* What????? Jesus man, you should NOT be eating the stuffing of the animals you're selling. What the hell is wrong with you? And, for the record, I looked at one of the tags and it said if the beads come out to wash where they contacted you immediatly. And if they get in your eyes, nose, mouth, etc. to call poison control. And this guy eats them? It's no wonder why he's working a mall cart. Sheesh.

Mr. "I work at a mall cart and eat toxic beads", this is for you:

When we headed out of the mall we made a stop at the drug store for a few necessities. We also headed to the ATM where I encountered a bit of a problem. I deposited the check my Dad sent me for my b-day. However, the ATM did not register the deposit and my account isn't saying that a deposit was made. So, it looks like I'll be calling my bank tomorrow and seeing what the hell is going on. I hope that this can be worked out because I was going to use that money to possibly purchase a new cell phone. Aargh.

After the bank we made a run into Vons for some snacks and then headed home. Currently, I'm on the home computer and Rob is sleeping. He wasn't feeling too well (kept dry heaving) so instead of going to the business center to play Neopets we're staying here. He's sleeping and I'm working on the home computer (even though it's slow as hell) to make sure he's all right and doesn't need anything. Tomorrow, my Mom arrives. Woot!

The Indian snake creature known as the naga was
believed to reside in groups apart from normal
humans, and many legends tell of their secret
citites hidden deep in the jungle, underground,
or underwater. In many tales, the naga is often
of royal lineage, or sometimes even divinity.
Nagas are often associated with water, and it
is said that they can control the weather. As a naga, you possess strong leadership abilities,
you are highly intelligent, and you can also be
a bit intimidating. You also enjoy the finer
things in life and like to be pampered, and
you're not too keen on mixing and mingling with
the unwashed masses.
