Bucking The Stars

[howeird]

After a long, relaxing day, I've taken the new laptop for a field trip to the local caffeination station. Glad I did - it showed me there are quite a few little things I had forgotten to transfer from the old laptop (the whole of the old laptop's files and settings is on the main PC at home).

Did most of what I planned:

• Dropped off old clothes and books at Goodwill


• Bought salvia, lavender, sage and star jasmine at the nursery and planted them in the patio flower boxes.
• Also re-potted three azaleas there


• Emptied the gravel from the two old fish tanks and tried washing and oven drying the first 5-gallon batch.
• It didn't work - dumped all the gravel instead, except for a few handfuls which went into the new tank.


• Mailed a DVD to a Peace Corps friend


• Picked up a couple of packages at the apartment office


• Relaxed out on the patio with the cats

Took myself to Sizzler for salad bar dinner.
