We are in the hotel lobby, out of the sun and enjoying the breeze from the fan, using the wifi.

TOD 2

Finishing Proust. It was monumental and in the end, exceptionally moving. The search for lost time continues.

The connection is getting bad.  With luck I will return after today but do not count on it.

It is so unbelievably cold here. I hate it.

I'm not sure what it is with the windchill. But it shows -22C/-7F without windchill.   Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

Thursday afternoon greetings!  I met Rebecca at Panera this morning for probably our last visit of the year.  We both had birthday rewards - she got a free pastry and I got free coffee.

I spent the day lying down and dozing.  My eyes still hurt.  Annabelle lay beside me, and Thatch would occasionally climb onto the bed to check things out before he headed back to the cat tree.

I did make two trips to the first floor and basement, but i've not left the building.  I must go out tomorrow to the bank at 86th Street, and I need to be well by Saturday for my Christmas date with our DR vixmom.

In a couple of days, the high here will be 33. WTF? Why didn't I move to Brazil when I had the chance? Did I ever have the chance?

I hope you feel better soon, Elmore. I didn't have the energy to do a full day of work.
