Day 285

I got up a little before the alarm today and played Minions.  I did that until about 7:45 and then got up.  I did the pet thing, played a little more Minions, and talked with Gary.  A little after 9 Gary and I went to Jim's.  Ellen couldn't come because she couldn't eat until after the surgery.

Gary liked Jim's and was surprised at how inexpensive it was (he paid).

When we got home everyone surfed and played computer games until 12:30 when it was time to go.  We stopped at the post office, but none of the packages that I was expecting came in.  The traffic going north was slow by downtown, but not as bad as we expected.  We got there at 1:40.  We were supposed to be there at 2, with the surgery at three.

They started the surgery after 5.  By that time Gary and my asses were sore from the lousy chairs they had in the waiting room.  Ellen didn't get out of there until after 6.  At least we wouldn't have to wait for traffic.

We ate at Opal Devine's.  We hadn't eaten since breakfast, and Ellen hadn't eaten all day.  The food was good and we showed Gary the doggy menu.  It was weird eating there without Lucy.

The traffic giong back was moving at 70.  We got lucky.  They were just about to close the freeway at 183 when we went through.

When we got home Gary found out that the Southwest website had suffered a catastrophic failure.  Flights are being delayed and cancelled.  We'll have to see if he gets out tomorrow.
