Eriko and I slept in until about 8. She was hungry and couldn’t sleep anymore. I probably could have remained in bed for some time. ;) I offered to make breakfast and cooked up some chocolate-chip pancakes, crispy bacon, and grilled toast. It took me a while (I have no griddle) but she wanted patiently. Finally, we ate, and it was yummy. =) I then proceeded to relax on the couch with my eyes clothes for a little while.
Eriko and I slept in until about 8 o’clock. Eriko made breakfast and I goofed off on the computer. Then we headed out for some errands. We drove up to Northgate mall and went to Target. On the way I received a phone call from Kevin (who had some questions about negotiating real estate). After the phone call I was reproached by Eriko for talking while driving. I would later more fully understand my behavior.
I woke up a little before the alarm went off and realized that I had forgot to set it (again). The alarm I’m using right now has to be turned off in order to quiet the buzzer and I don’t remember to turn it back on. Luckily, I haven’t slept in yet. So Eriko and I get up but we’re both tired. She didn’t sleep so well because she ate too much yesterday and I’m still getting used to sharing the bed.
Woke up at 6:30. I was exhausted. I don’t think I slept too well. Partly because I was hot and partly because I had some wine near bedtime. I like alcohol but I just don’t know if I can really drink it as often as I’d like. Even in small quantities it seems to have a big impact on my system. Of course, the less I drink, the more of an impact it has the next time.
Woke up at the usual time (6:30). Eriko made breakfast while I continued to read ‘Gone with the Wind’. Only tens of pages left. We walked to work, leaving the house about 7:40. Work was busy. I went out to coffee with my boss’ boss, and we talked about the future. Barely believable possibilities. Went home for lunch. Went home for dinner, arriving before 6. Eriko had dinner ready. I had some wine with dinner and read my book instead of the usual 7 o’clock Seinfeld.
