Actually, I'm not feeling bitchy at all. I've had quite the wonderful day so far here in Northern Virginia.
We made it up here around 11:30, thanks to no traffic on 95. Once we made it to my brother's house, I went ahead and borrowed his extra car for the day. Well, it's more like a mini-van or "family vehicle" - whatever the dealerships are calling them these days. *I LOVE the seat-warmers!

I stopped by my old music store, Foxes Music, and did some birthday present shopping for Steve's mother. She's started playing piano again, and has been looking for some new classical music books to read through. It's been a while since I've browsed through bins of sheet music, and I somehow resisted checking out the Broadway bins - since I knew I'd probably walk out of there with a stack of books. None of the regular staff members were in today, but the new guys seem to be doing their job. -Although, I did assist one young man and his mother when they were comparing versions of "Rhapsody In Blue".

*It was also nice to see a lot of the signage that I had made for the store still in use after all these years - 10 at least!
