Back to the routine today -- up before daylight, off to work about the time the sun is coming up, and a long day of reading news and writing country reports. I was in a really good zone at work, but unfortunately by the end of the day, it left me wiped out and unable to process sensory stimuli very well. So I got home to my parents (I was unable to have lunch with them because my truck decided to have a dead battery at work today -- of all the times for it to have problems!) and we went out to dinner a short time later. I'm afraid I wasn't very good conversationally because my brain was dead from the day. They seemed to enjoy the evening though.

A postscript to yesterday's journal entry: I forgot to mention that when I was walking Kiwi yesterday morning, I saw that Cecil's had thrown out a small porcelain bulldog, apparently because its leg was broken. You can see where this is going, I bet. Yep, I had to pick up the bulldog and put it in the little garden in front of the apartment. So what if the poor little guy has a rock holding him up in the front? Sometimes we all need just a little bit of help! Maybe I'll shoot a photo of him one of these days. He seems to like his new home.
