Day 885

I woke up at 7:30, went back to sleep until 8.  It was 47 degrees outside, so there was no point in getting up.  Instead we surfed for a little more than an hour before getting up for pet stuff and breakfast.

After that it was a trip to PC hell.  My new little computer was in "tablet mode".  That meant it's user interface was screwed.  Ellen got it out of that mode and then I spent a couple of hours with all three of my computers set up side by side.  I finally got all three of them to look more or less the same.

After that I shopped for a clothes hamper for the apartment on Amazon.  I found one and ordered it.  It was about lunch time, so we went to a place I'd read about in the Impact magazine.  It turned out to be popular and crowded.  We just managed to get a table.  The food was really good.  After the meal we had a little conversation with the owner.  He had just opened the place after being manager of the Whole Foods restaurant.  When Amazon took it over they layed off the whole department.  He used them all to start the restaurant.  We'll be back.

By then the temperature had dropped to the low 40's.  We went car shopping.  We test drove an Accord.  It's a nice car, but too noisy.  Then we went to see Kia.  I took the wrong exit and we ended up going north from William Cannon on the frontage road.  Traffic really sucked.  Since we were driving by we stopped at Acura instead.  I had Ellen look at the RLX.  She agrees it's a cool car, but she doesn't want to pay $1K/mo to lease one.  I kind of agree.

Ellen's asshole was giving her trouble.  We made a brief stop at Restore so I could get a broom for the apartment and then we went home.  It was about 6 when we got there.

I had a pizza for dinner.  After dinner I surfed while Ellen watched chick flicks.
