Slow day…

[eimarra]

Slow days follow snow days because the schools do two-hour delays, which throws my whole schedule off. I did do useful things — paid bills, talked to my mom — but it took me until the end of the day to start writing. Which means I still don’t have my nice stat block today.

Completely unrelated thought today: after next Tuesday (and maybe even before), the Easter candy will come out. Which means I can get Just Born jelly beans again! This makes me bounce-up-and-down happy with anticipated sugar rush!

Here in the UK the Easter sweets have been out a couple of weeks already. :(

I was rather expecting to see some when I went grocery shopping yesterday, as they were putting up the Valentine's stuff a few days before Christmas. (I was trying to buy candy for stocking stuffers as close to Christmas as possible so it wasn't sitting around. It was quite annoying to find they'd broken down the Christmas displays already.)

I did get some jelly beans, but they're the generic, find them everywhere type, rather than the Just Born ones. (Just Born is the manufacturer of Peeps, Mike and Ikes, and other such candies, and they have their headquarters here in Bethlehem. Their jelly beans are softer, sized slightly smaller than the major national brand, and much better flavored.)
