How could I possibly not want to move away from the Bay Area when a few simple errands take three hours to finish? This place is so ridiculously overcrowded! The majority of the time that these errands took was spent standing in line or waiting at stop lights. By the time we got home, it was too late to prepare the dinner I had gotten ingredients for, so we heated up our elegant frozen meals instead. I suppose that I should be used to all of this by now, but I'm just not. Jon says that if we moved to a smaller town, we wouldn't have places like Trader Joe's and Whole Foods close by, but I have to believe that there's a better option out there where I can still find my soy cheese and Aveda moisturizer and not throw cooking utensils around the kitchen afterwards out of frustration.
Still, we ended our mostly leisurely weekend well. I made a cup of herbal tea, sat down on the living room floor and worked out some songs with Jon in preparation for our next open mic night apperance. We're hoping to snag a spot this coming Wednesday evening at Barefoot Coffee Roasters. I still have to call to get the details of how the open mic night signups work there, but I think it's going to be a lot more fun than the last one we performed at. We might even give our friends the go-ahead to come and listen.
