We left our place about 9:00 or so and started on our journey. We had looked up some numbers for some other pet stores in Poplar Bluff the night before. Since we only go to PetsWay we thought we'd try some other ones. So while we were on our way we called a few and asked if they had any sugar gliders. None of which had any. But we thought we'd check some of the stores out anyway. Our first stop was Pets R Us. It's kind of in a mini mall type building. You walk in the front door and go down a long ass set of stairs and then you're there. You can also come in through the back (where we should've came in). But overall the store was pretty cool. Way different than PW. In this store they had some dogs and a whole bunch of kittens. And I mean some super cute kittens. And the ladies that worked there seemed pretty nice.
Then we went to our ever faithful, PetsWay. We walked around in there for a little while. But we didn't really find anything. Other than a missing hedgehog and one on hold. That sucked balls. But oh well, I got over it. All we got there was a corner scooper for Ben's cage and some vitamin stuff to go in his food. Then we were off again.
Our next stop was at another pet store that we looked up. LaVaughn had to call and get directions. And that was not easy. We had to go to downtown Poplar Bluff. It was so confusing. I think we circled the post office like 3 times. Then we drove down a one way street the wrong way. That was super fun. And to top it all off, we were on some kind of stone road the entire time. Then after about 30 minutes of driving around we finally found it. It wasn't in a nice neighborhood either. There were like abandoned buildings all around us. We were so freaked to leave Milla in the car cause we had to park like a block away from it. So we like ran all the way there. And then when we got in there it was just an oblong room full of fish tanks! It was so disappointing. There was like one worker guy and like 3 other boys standing around. We walked over to the corner and stood there for like 10 seconds and then left. It was such a creepy place! We are so never going there again. We were so happy to see the strip again.
Then we just had to stop at Hastings. I mean come on, do you know us at all? Well we looked around in there for a while. Then I was in the horror section when LaVaughn ran around the corner and was like, "Dude, look what I found!" and I was like, "What." then she showed me. It was WrestleMania 23 and 24! But the awesome part, WrestleMania was in a sealed Ultimate Box Set package. And how much do you think that was? Only $12.99! A steal I tell you. I was so stoked. Then we went and looked at the wrestling DVDs for like 30 minutes. We found so many PPVs that we don't have. But we decided to just wait and buy them online. So by the time we left we had WrestleMania 23 and 24 and this movie called Black Sheep (which I'll rate after we watch it). One of the checkout guys recommended it the last time we were in there. So then we left.
When we got back to town we had do grab a few things and pay a few bills. Like car insurance and our phone bill. Then we had to get some dish soap, paper plates for the animals, and some detergent. And while I was in there I couldn't help but notice a movie that we didn't have. It's called Rest Stop: Don't Look Back. It's the second part to Rest Stop. That was a pretty cool movie. Really weird, but well worth the watch. So I'll be rating that in the future as well.
Then we got home a checked the mail. Where we were pleased to find a movie that we had ordered. It's called Feast of Love. Never seen it. But it has Morgan Freeman in it. So it can't be all bad. I'll also rate that in the future. Then after we got all of our stuff out of the car we walked to the door only to find a slip from FedEx! Those bastards came today! And guess what they had? Our freakin Voyagers! I was so upset. They were supposed to be here tomorrow. Oh well, you can't win them all.
I think that's about all that happened today. If I forgot anything I'll probably just put it in my next blog. Peace out!
Oh yea, sorry for the lack of pictures here lately. I haven't really go to take any good ones. So I'll put a couple pictures of a Voyager at the bottom for you. Peace!
