We then went to a Relax Your Back store where I tried a Teeter Hangup.  I may get one, it felt pretty good.  The hilarious thing is I recognized the store owner from our association probably close to 30 years ago--I was "house" pianist at a very tony downtown Italian men's clothing store which, yes, had a grand piano in the showroom, and he was the ice cream scooper at the place next door I used to frequent on my breaks.

I could use some back relief right now.  I don't know where my shoulder could hang if I tilted like that. ;)

Fun to recognize the store owner from the "old" days. :)

At first I thought this was some kind of a libation.

Today is DW wife Betsy and my anniversary.  We are auctioning the kids on eBay as our present to each other.  ;)

A Very Happy Anniversary to DR JMK and DW Besty!!

My friend Richard didn't make it. He died last night.

I'm very sorry, John.  My condolences to you and to Richard's family.

Yesterday, while I was helping a coworker jump start the battery in her car, the power went out in our building.  It was almost 5:00 pm on a Friday, so they closed the building.  I actually had a CD in my computer that's still there.  We found out that there was an accident a couple of miles south of there...Man arrested after chase starting at Millersylvania (Millersylvania is a park south of Olympia).

Anyway, we all left and I went home for a little bit.  I didn't even have time to turn on my computer.  I had to go to my sister's to feed her cats and change their litter boxes.  After that, I went to the theater, where we had our official opening night of Cannibal! The Musical!  We had almost a full house and they were a great crowd.  They were with us most of the time.  Pug, our director, said that it got a little slow in the second act, but overall went quite well.

After the show, a bunch of us went upstairs to the Eagles club and partied and chatted and danced and drank (no one drove drunk, though).  They closed at 2:00 am and several of us were still there.  We decided to walk a couple of blocks to a 24 hour coffee shop and were there for about 45 minutes or so.  Then we all went to our respective homes.  I came home and went directly to bed.

I didn't wake up until after noon, and I watched some TV until now.  I need to take a shower, feed my sister's cats and then go to the theater.  After tonight's show, Pug is having a party at her place.  It's going to be another long night, but tomorrow's performance isn't until 8:00, so I have another day to sleep in. :)

I spent 71 minutes on the phone with 2 different people at AppleCare and, finally, my screen saver is working the way it's supposed to.

Ugh! I really don't want to deal with the basement.  It's drying but I still have some mold and mildew around the edges of the room.  I decided to try borax instead of bleach - mostly because I have it.  I mixed a solution of it and sprayed all the mold.  (there really isn't very much) It's supposed to be a fungicide.  I still need to scrub it all off. Blah.  I just can't bring myself to do it.

If I lived where you do I'm sure I would want one to hide in when a tornado hits.  We have spent time doing so during storms.

Though I admit that the few times I've called Apple Care they were both knowledgable and attentive. Better than your average customer service.

I was also too tired to go anywhere, so I didn't go to a movie. I really want to see The Lincoln Lawyer, Conspirator and Arthur.  So do I do laundry, clean the house and deal with the basement tomorrow....or do I go to a movie?

I am trying out my new AC unit. When my lease was up I decided to stay on, but asked if an AC unit could be installed. Some of the apartments in this building have them, some do not. Mine did not. I was expecting to have to pay for it myself, but the manager readily agreed and took care of it at no cost to me. Nice. I hope it doesn't run up my electric bill too much, though. Last year I positively died on hot days.
