It took a while to catch up with yesterday's and today's notes. We are a prolific bunch, wordwise.
Yesterday, der B decided that I must be getting cabin-crazy, and therefor that we should take a cab into town, our own car still being in the shop. We ended up having dinner at the Purple Parrot, in their new digs. Said new digs, closer to the beach, are nice, but while the PP has a larger dining room now, it has lost the upstairs "Birdcage," where they would hold kareoke and other entertainments. Downstairs now has a series of garage doors which can be raised during the summer to let the sea breazes in. Problem is, the plans are to hold the kareoke etc. in the front of the new restaurant, where there is bound to be noise pollution complaints. Boo hiss.
We took another cab home. About twelve minutes after settling in, the power went out. This was a little after eight in the evening. I decided to make an early night of it, while der B fiddled with a battery-powered CD player.
The power is back now. We also had some snow. Hopefully we'll also have a car very soon!
