TV night and morning meeting

Got up at 9:00 this morning and had breakfast and coffee, then tried to get to the meeting of the retirees association of my union by Zoom at 10:00. I was not successful, not sure why, but I got to the meeting anyway by phone. I would have preferred Zoom, but oh well.

Anyway, the meeting was somewhat interesting, I found a few things out I didn't know. So that's good. It was a little over an hour long, and afterward I went and showered and dressed. I also used dry shampoo on my hair.

I headed over to mashfanficchick's place by bus. After I got off I went, by request, to the Key Food there, and got half and half. Then I went to zer place.

We hung out and had lunch, Thai food. I had pad Thai.

After lunch we hug out more and chatted, until around 5:30 when ze put the episode of Will Trent that was broadcast Tuesday on Hulu and we watched that. It's a lot of fun.

At 7:00 I Teamed the FWiB on my phone, until 8:00 when we watched 911, followed by 911:Nashville. Both good episodes.

After the TV shows we had dinner, chicken and gravy and mashed potatoes. John and Denise finally called then but we didn't talk, they are going to call back, Saturday I think.

Finally I Ubered home, and started here, the computer has been annoying but is working OK now. I hope.

1. The FWiB.

Edited to add: Once again forgot to say I called Middle Brother. He is fine, getting a haircut tomorrow.

Meeting cancelled

Woke up with the alarm at 10:00, hit the snooze until I got a phone call from my therapist asking if it was OK to have our appointment then. I said give me five minutes, and in a hurry got ready.

The appointment was good. After that I had a bowl of Cheerios, and went back to bed. I didn't mean to sleep as long as I did but I didn't get up til after 3:00.

After that I had coffee and then puttered online. I got texts that my meeting tonight was cancelled due to the cold and people's lack of parking, which I think was the wrong decision, but not up to me.

At 7:00 I Teamed the FWiB. We talked for almost two hours which was super-nice.

After that I had dinner, and then went to the bedroom and played solitaire until pet feeding time.

For those who don't know, today was the General Strike nationwide in support of Minneapolis, I did my bit by staying in and not buying anything. Last night the Kid called me and made me promise if I went to my meeting today I wouldn't buy my usual pizza first.

And I will mention that Bruce Springsteen's new song The Streets of Minneapolis, is number one on iTunes in at least 19 countries according to Snopes. For those who haven't heard it, it's also on YouTube. It's here If the link works right...

Anyway, that was the day.
