Back to working a nice, round 40-45 hours a week, and I can't get any errands done now because most businesses are open from 9 to 5. Those are my working hours, too. I am very frustrated because I can't figure out how to pick up a pair of pants I left at the alterations place. I was thinking about mailing a payment and asking them to drop off the pants at a nearby cleaners since they are open at 7 am and I can pick them up on my way to work. It is very silly that I have to get things done like this. I will no longer be patronizing any businesses that are not open between 7 and 8 am or 5 and 6 pm. I just want the pants back so I can wear them!

On that note, every time I stop by the Quiznos in downtown Homewood, they are not open. They are not open during those times which we call lunch time and dinner time. This is consistent with Homewood's "we are only open from 10 am to 2 pm" business policy, or in other words, "you are not welcome at this business unless you are a bored housewife with nothing to do but spend your husband's money".
