Nilknarf Daily Haiku

life goes on, it does
that is a wonderful thing;
as long as it lasts...


I got a very good rest... slept from 02:00 until about noon.

I will be in bed earlier tonight because I want to be on the train heading downtown by about 10:00.

It's supposed to be a very nice day tomorrow....

My first stop will be the Natural History Museum, and I'll probably spend all day there....

I did venture out today... went to big lots and got some stuff that I'd forgotten to bring, razors and body wash, stuff like that.

I came home and diddled around, looking at Houston on google earth, looking at where I'll be going tomorrow. The weather is supposed to be nice, and I'm looking forward to riding on the train to downtown, I haven't ridden on a train in a long, long time.

I picked JD up at 18:00 and we went to Ross, a department store, where I'd hoped to find him a sharpening steel... but alas, they had none.

So we came home and decided where to go for supper, and went to the Panda Express. Not too bad, but definitely not as good or as cheap as their buffet. An all-you-can-eat buffet is the way I like to go, not because I eat a bunch, but so I can pick what I want.

The Mediterranean buffet last night was perfect... just the way to sample foods that you haven't had before.

After eating, we went to the Super Target across the road and looked for a sharpening steel, and the ones that they had were ridiculously expensive, so no. I did get JD a hot-water pot kinda like Jean has, but cooler. The Bunn coffee-pot that I'd got in in 1995 was leaking badly, and was begging to be thrown away, he'd just been using it for heating water.

We tried putting WIN7 on his machine... it's just like the one that I have been trying to put on my machine downstairs unsuccessfully and it started acting the same way my machine did, so we aborted and we're trying something different.

Jean and I tried Skype tonight and it didn't work very well, slow on one end or the other, so we just talked on the phone... I'd much rather be seeing her pretty face while I'm talking to her... where's my Dick Tracy watch, anyway? It's the twenty-first century here, folks!

Need to get up earlier tomorrow, so I'm going to bed much earlier tonight.
