I am home from the Metropolitan Room.  I would haver been home 45 minutes ago if the No. 7 bus I was riding hadn't been hit by one of those idiot red tourist buses at 34th Street. First time that's happened in 37 years.

Was everyone OK? That sounds scary.

I guess we need to wait until tomorrow for the answer to this.

Back from the ALS meeting, which was productive and good.

Had my usual salad with ham and avocado, and because I knew it would be my only meal and not enough calories by itself, I had a bagel and cream cheese with it - very good, and I'm quite sated - all in all - around 1000 calories and I did my jog.

I think once I get to Louisville I'll have more mental strength. But I will.

And of course, this coming Sunday is the big annual hydroplane race and the appearance by the Blue Angels in Seattle.

So naturally they are calling for showers and possibly thunder showers.

And this will be one of possibly a dozen times in my life that I have not been here for the hydro races.

I have actually been to the races a couple times in my life, but from the shore you can't really tell one boat from another.

This town park is quite lovely.  Grass and trees are beautiful, and there's this great little corner where they construct the stage and a lovely gently-banked lawn (if I called it a hillside you'd imagine something too big) which affords good sightlines for every audience member.

Instead, watching the hydroplanes on TV was a family tradition every year.

When Sandy decided on the Vegas trip, it didn't even occur to me that we were leaving the morning of the races.
