Stalling Until Sunset

[days_unfolding]

I'm trying to figure out what I can do after work on Monday because I really, really don't want to drive with the sun in my eyes. Ideally, I would do homework, but I don't want to do it on my work computer. Hmm. I could bring the Lousy Laptop, but it's so slow. I could bring my Better Laptop, but that requires moving the digital piano to get the power cord. (Its battery is not working.) Probably the best thing to do is ask my boss if I could use the work laptop. I also ordered some polarized sunglasses that fit over my prescription glasses.

Ack. My instructor canceled Italian. I need to make time to study it on my own so that I won't forget it and keep learning. We've had class canceled for a month! Maybe I should bring some Italian grammar with me on Monday in case I can't study for my programming class (although I bet my boss will say yes to using the laptop).

I had a grilled cheese sandwich on multigrain bread, and Zara hoovered up the crumbs. Strange kitty. And Mimi is lying on her favorite position on her back with her belly in the air. (She also likes belly rubs.) A quiet morning at home.

I checked to see if Champaign has a Trader Joe's, but alas, no, it's only in the Chicago area. Madison has a Trader Joe's. Another point in Madison's favor.

Ran out to pick up a few things at the store, including frozen dinners to bring to work on Monday and Wednesday. I could eat dinner while I'm waiting for the sun to go down. Frozen dinners are more expensive than what I usually make, but still cheaper than eating out. Now I'm chilling for a moment (though Mimi's on my lap so maybe I'm "warming"). Then I'll get the garbage out (done).

Wow. My Italian teacher is canceling the group class, but will offer private lessons at a very reasonable price. I said that I was interested.

Oh! I never ate dinner! Too busy! (Done.) I'm taking my nighttime meds early to help me wind down. Now I need to do nighttime tasks (partially done).
