Journal Entry:
I dropped off Amy and then went and parked my car. I was going to hang out at Starbucks until the library opened at ten, then deal with a bunch of errands on the internet before meeting Amy for lunch. Unfortunately it's Thursday and the library didn't open until after noon. So I ended up spending the entire morning in Starbucks nursing a latte and writing email and my journal. Amy and I had a yummy Mexican lunch then she went back to work and I hit the library. I got tons done - updated my journal, sent email, banking, some research, and ordered a new handheld computer (an HP Jornada 720 to replace my aging 660LX). I was going to go catch a movie in the afternoon, but by the time I finished at the library it was too late so I ended up spending nearly two hours in the Jack London Square Barnes and Nobel (I love bookstores!). At five I picked up Amy from work and went back to the house to pack. We left Piedmont around seven and had a quick seven hour drive down to Laguna. It's amazing how much faster the drive goes with company! In Laguna we sat up talking with my parents until four.
