Time I got caught up

 Well let's see ... I watched two movies yesterday and overnight ... the movie "White Masai" after finishing the book. Then "The Andromeda Strain" which is actually better than the book. 

I did a shipping run on Friday and deposited my pay check, and Petition Guy was in front of Whole Foods there but packed up early because he was worried about rain. It turns out he needn't have worried, as the rain just went by to the North. 

There was a young guy there with a guitar he said he'd just got, and I told him about good places to play it. According to Petition Guy, the guy had had his car stolen in New Mexico and the police there had said something like, "It's a cartel and we can't help you". Or maybe it was, "It's *not* a cartel, so we can't help you". 

I'd have hung out longer and encouraged the guy more but I was worried about rain, and needn't have... 

I took a little ride around downtown and Leroy's still alive! I talked with him a bit, and he said Wendall, who plays the flute and comes out here this time of year from New Orleans, is around. So I left Leroy to get back to mangling the oldies with absolutely no sense of rhythm or "swing" and rode by the usual Wendall haunts but I didn't see him. 

Yesterday, Saturday, was just sleeping most of the day because rainy weather can make me sleep like that, then getting up and when the guys next door got some loud music playing I decided to get out of here for a couple of hours. I got things at Ross and Sprouts, then listed a bunch of things and did my movie-watching thing. 

I slept most of today, too. It keeps threatening to rain but it's all sliding by to the North.

Practice and a bit of study

 Yesterday's whole afternoon was spent finding the things for, packing, and processing something like 15 refunds for (because it has to ...
