Man, I can't believe I forgot to mention getting a new passport (hush, it's not paranoia), the asshat who threw a rock at my windshield from the overpass and being kneed in the throat (so that's what that feels like). You really do wind up briefly paralyzed by an inability to inhale and gag at the same time. Fascinating.
Morning aikido went well, though I had to wait a half hour after class for my sempai to appear. She was glad I did because she needed to burn off some steam after dealing with a bathroom contractor. So she launched herself at me at high speed and I coped until she slowed down, but it was fun and I fine-tuned a few techniques.
After a shower at home, and putting up some clothes, Keith and I went to TGiF for dinner. It was apparently family night because we were surrounded by fussy toddlers, but at least the music wasn't too loud and the food was good. From there we went to IKEA and you know you can't go there without buying things. We came back with a set of lamps and some organization equipment for the kitchen.
Next up, picking out the right book/stuff shelves.
FYI, post-dated entries for the past two weeks, in case anyone cares.
