Courtney woke me up at 8:15. I changed clothes, and brushed my teeth, deciding to shower when I got home. The toilet wouldn’t stop running, and Courtney yelled from upstairs, “John, are you handy?” We got it to stop running, and she left it precariously set, sure to not work properly on the next flush. … Read more

I got up at 5:00, and left for the airport at about 5:40. I parked at Park and Ride 3, the Purple Lot, and took the shuttle to the Southwest terminal. I had printed my gate pass from the web, since I wasn’t checking any bags, and was able to proceed directly to the gate … Read more

The plan was to see “The Producers” at the NC Museum of Art’s outdoor movie series, but as the evening progressed, things went awry. Robert and I left for FedEx at just after 7:30. My package, which is my new Verizon cell phone has been riding around Raleigh since the first attempt to deliver it … Read more

I went to the LRC’s “Tribute to Womyn of the Triangle” recognition dinner at the Eno River UUF in Durham. Wayne and Robert also went. Jan was there, of course, and she had her (straight) sister with her. I think her name was Chris. They had posters along the back wall of all the honorees. … Read more

We decided to rent the sanctuary, instead of using the Vaughn Wing, even though it was a lot more costly. About 70 people showed up, including a … Read more

I straightened out that damn Cingular bill for mom, and called her at lunch time. I asked her what time Dad’s appointment on the 27th was, and after his retrieving the appointment card, found out it was actually on the 25th at 9AM. This is good news, as I’ve decided to attend that appointment. I … Read more

Leaving work, and turning on my cell phone, I have a voice mail message from Dad. “Please call home when you get a minute.” Can’t be good. Ring. Ring. “Dad? This is John. What’s up?” “How much trouble would it be to cancel our trip next month? Would you lose a lot of money?” Hmmmm. … Read more

We slept in. Robert made coffee and served me it in bed. Then he made eggs over easy and toast for me. We had a lazy day, and ended up taking a nap and MMMMMMMMMMing before getting up around 1:30 to get ready for the play. We got ready in time to run some errands: … Read more

I slept in today instead of getting up and riding like I should have. I spent a couple of hours going through my papers to be filed. Mountains of paper all across the country. I found my Tire King receipt, too — right on time. Got all the papers “categorized,” but they are still on … Read more

I brought three liter bottles of soda and a bag of ice to Games Night. One other person brought a bag of mixed peanuts. We had fun, fun games of Catch Phrase and Names Burst (I think it’s called). Matt looked so sexy tonight. Kevin really is amazing with the amount of “stuff” he knows. … Read more
