Headache fading away

 My headache never got bad last night and after packing things to mail, I did a practice session and it went fine. I went to bed around 7AM and woke up at about 1:20. 

I went downtown, dropping off packages at the downtown post office. While I was locking up the bike, a zombie came running by at full tilt, and continued running until it got to a particular bench ... meetup with the local drug dealer? Who knows. "The crazy" is generally on display around that area. I feel sorry for the people who work in the county courthouse there, nicely dressed, almost certainly clean records, educated, who have to walk through this area. 

I did my bank deposit and then locked the bike up at Whole Foods and got on the #22 bus for some exploring. There's an REI store I'd wanted to check out and, while it's a bit nicer than a Big-5, there wasn't anything in there that I wanted and especially not given that I'd have to pay the membership fee and there's no REI in Hawaii. 

I also checked out the big dollar store, and it's pretty neat. All I bought was liquid fabric softener which is getting hard to find because it's bad for washing machines it turns out, but since I don't use one, it's fine for me. But with Fry's Electronics and Amazon out of my life now, I'll be back to that dollar store. 

I got back to Whole Foods and there were lots of people in hockey jerseys, both the San Jose Sharks and the Canadian Maple Leafs (or whatever it is, Maple Leafs).

The once and future cornet

 The reason I dug the Connstellation out and replaced the errant screw and put in new water key corks is that last week I'd gone by Park...
