Spook jumped on the bed when I woke with the alarm, she sat at the foot grooming herself, so I played on the tablet for almost an hour before getting up.

The usual breakfast. FL fisherman was very watchable this morning, not fishing. The company he captains for sent out him and another boat loaded with mostly young women for a charity sandbar party. A good time was had by all. His boat has a floating platform which can be towed behind or alongside the boat, and it made for a really good place for people to swim/wade out to and work on their tans.

While he was out on the clear blue sea in perfect weather, one of my favorite storm chasers was somewhere in Mississippi during a major downpour looking for tornadoes. Quite a thrill to switch between the two. But FL man went back to shore early and storm chaser kept losing her signal. Ate 8 California rolls and 6 Las Vegas rolls for lunch. LV rolls look great on paper but are not so great tasting - they are smoked salmon, cream cheese, avocado, dynamite sauce, and deep fried tempura style. So they are served warm, not at all my idea of sushi.

So after watching two episodes of PTI,  I did The Chore of the Day. Cleared a path for tomorrow's stove delivery - unplugged the cat water fountain and moved it and the two food containers and the cat grass over by the office, unplugged the microwave and rolled its cart out into the livingroom. Moved the side table from next to the recliner to in front of it. And moved the exercise bike close to the sofa. So now there is a clear path from the stove to the front door.

Lowe's sent a text, they expect to deliver between 4 and 8 pm. Whew! I don't have to wake up early.

In theory they will uninstall and haul away the old stove and then install the new one.

No microwave, because dinner was a salad followed by the second box of sashimi. This time I cut the slabs up into bite sized pieces and used a small container for the soy sauce/ginger/wasabi mixture. Once again the minimalist wooden chopsticks worked great. Mint chocolate chip ice cream house brand is a FAIL. Almost no chips. Will spend more for the Blue Bunny next time.

Quicken says my check to the screen door company cleared, which means my newly printed Quicken blanks are correctly done.

Lots of May The Fourth puns on FB. Many from me.

Did a dishwasher load, some items will stay inside the machine because they will go on top of the stove.

Yeller stray hung out all morning under one of the rocking chairs on the porch. He already ate next door, but my porch has real shade in the morning. It's been in the 80's since 8 am.

Took a lie down at about 5. Lots of LVFD scanner activity.

Watched two episodes of Dr. Phil whose organization has grown entirely too large.

Plans for tomorrow:
American Idol
Hot Bench
Henry Gates' Roots

Stove adventures.
