Nic is off to Yosemite today with her friends and the boy and I went off to his golf lesson and then to Walnut Creek for a bit of errand. It is a hot, lazy summer Saturday afternoon. We should be out making most of the long hours of sunshine but we are stuck at home listening to the boy at the piano and feeling sleepy. Must really get a move on, making the most of summer. Like going to Six Flags (where unfortunately, a teen just had her ankle tragically sliced off by a loose wire on the superman ride in Kentucky) as I had been planning in my head for months, waiting for the cold of winter and early spring to give way to warmer temperatures. And now that the warmer days are here, we have not made the plans. Shame. But I did get us tickets to watch a baseball game on the eve of Independence Day, Jul 3 at Oakland. Of course, the Man will be far away in Asia then so we will try to enjoy ourselves without his company. Doris wants to watch the game with us so I must get an extra ticket. Best part is, because it will be hours away from Jul 4, there will be fireworks. I am looking forward to soaking in a bit of Americana.
Can't wait to receive the cameras I won. But that won't be for some days yet cos I just mailed off the checks. Which reminds me, I oughta collect my poor ol' Coolpix from the darn camera repair shop.
Wonder what we should do for the rest of the day. Maybe go ride the bikes. More later.
Pre-dinner stamping as moron. Post-dinner, post-fruitless drive to Danville to collect my camera, ice cream and leftover watermelons and pointless stabbing conversation with a dour teen and sarcasm disguised as humor. That's how this day ended. Sighness.
