Riding my bike to and from work and most other places:

On the bus

The other day on the bus a woman asked me to turn my music down—it wasn’t even halfway up. She said she couldn’t stand the sound of jazz. I told her she was missing out.

Last two days

Monday evening, I woke up at 1145pm because the power went out. I got up and looked outside then went back to bed after setting my cell phone alarm. The power was on in the morning.

The next morning, I woke up early and went to work to print something out. It looked great. After work I had band rehearsal.

Today I went to work at the normal time. Amber met me for lunch. I worked the rest of the day and went home.

Rollers.

Accomplishments

I went into work a little early to work on a poster. I finished it and the fire alarm went off shortly thereafter. Everyone had to leave the building and firemen showed up. They went in the building and then told us it was ok to go back in.

Things done today

Amber and I went out for Dim Sum this morning. It was very fresh and tasty and we both agreed we should do it more often. Then we went to catch a bus to a stereo shop on Roosevelt at 63rd Street. When we approached the bus, it started moving away so we knocked on the window. The driver pointed backwards and kept moving, then sat at a stoplight for 2 minutes. I think he was telling us to wait for the next bus, which we did. It came about ten minutes later.

At the stereo shop, we listened to two different turntables play The Stooges’ “Down on the Street”. We thought the less expensive one sounded better. Then we listened to a Sun Ra song with two different stylus cartridges on the approved turntable. The more expensive one sounded better this time.

After that, we returned a video and picked up some fake bacon that we forgot at the cinema the other night. We tried to get bubble tea, but the place was closed. Then we decided to catch the bus and get a cold drink in Ballard instead. My friend Alan was on the bus and we talked.

Once we got home after the cold drink, we moved furniture and sat outside for about an hour. I worked on a poster and Amber just laid there. We went inside when the sun went behind a tree.

What I’m up to

Well, not much. I just made breakfast and now i’m listening to music. I will work on designing a poster or two and fill out a rent check as well. Then I will work at the Grand Illusion Cinema for a few hours. But before I go, I will stop by Scarecrow Video and return a DVD. I might pick up a couple more. Then Amber will be home and we’ll probably eat together.
