The alarm went off at 8. We got up, did the pet stuff, and left for my eye appointment. Traffic was surprisingly light and we got there in a little over 20 minutes. That made us 20 minutes early.
I sat in the waiting room for half an hour. The appointment itself was routine. The only distressing part was that my right eye was fuzzy. I don't know if that was temporary or permanent. I got my prescription and we left about 10:30.
We were hungry, so we drove to iHOP. It's tits up. We went to the mall instead. It was too early for the food places to be open, so we just walked around the mall. Eventually we walked by the food court. It was open and we ate at a teriyaki place there. It was pretty good and there was enough left for me to have dinner.
After lunch we continued to walk around the rest of the mall. There was a fair number of people and more than a few had shopping bags. We finally got all the way around the mall and left. We only bought a couple of trinkets. There's not really anything we need. I did stop at the Apple store to look at iPADs. I might get one.
We stopped at the post office. We also stopped at the Circle-C smoothy place because Ellen wanted one. When we got home I got out the soldering stuff and started working on the tail lights for the Power Wagon (the parts were in the mailbox).
I kind of made a mess out of the first light, but it worked. I really screwed up the second. That's when I realized that I was using the wrong resistors. I ended up soldering two new LED's and putting them in the lights. That's as far as I got before I was tired of messing with it.
I spent some time surfing and then switched to videos. That lasted for the rest of the night.
