G lobal O rgasm D ay

Friday: Woke around 10:30, and then some more sleep. Email. Gus. Shower. Reheated some coffee and had a couple of quick fried eggs. Down basement, and a phone call with my friend Stcy. Sitting. I heard MB come come. Some tidying. Off to work.

Got more of my "capture and export" rewrite going. The thing that had been tripping me up was that an exception was being thrown in the non-real-time case. Headed home around 7:30.

Stopped and bought some booze and baked goods as last minute presents. Back at the ranch, MB had left some stuff for me to do. Ate some leftover Indian food. Emptied the dishwasher. Took out the garbage. Loaded stuff into the car. Packed. Left a key for the cat sitter. Listened to phone messages. One was from a friend of MB's grandfather. He's had a fall, and doesn't want us to visit. MB called and we arranged for a place to meet. A few last minute things, and then on the road.

Picked MB up near the church where were married. On the road. Rain. Stopped at a service area, but everything except McDumpings was closed. The donut shop was open at the next one, which fit the bill. MB had gotten some bean treats at the Asian market. We drove on, mostly in silence. Arrived at mom's around 1 AM. MB removed her banana nut loaves from the pans. Now, I'm filching internet from a neighbor. Happy G.O.D!
