May 08, 2008Open Thread: A Big DayThe original plan for today was already pretty big. Today's the Profesora's last day of final grading for her classes. The LAST day before summer. And that was just the planned part! In Plan A, we WERE going to go out to our great neighborhood restaurant, Shogun, when she got home. But she got a surprise call about an hour before she was due to leave. Two months ago, we'd placed a big order, and today turned out to be the only day for awhile when they could easily deliver such a big order. So, we put off the great Japanese and had pizza instead, to make time to get things ready. At 8:30ish, they drove up. I saw the flatbed truck outside. Opening the door and going out, I could see all nine bookcases for us, plus another for somebody else nearby. We got them from a great Austin specialist, The Bookcase Store. I had been a happy customer since buying their product twice, both in '97 and more recently. We decided on them for the big buy after comparing how my bookcase from '97 had held up vs others we had. They look both nice and sturdy. I hope to get in some followup bookcase - blogging, with pictures, later. We'll have to try again on the celebration tomorrow. What's cooking with you guys? Any weekend plans? Posted by Jon Kay at May 8, 2008 02:20 AMComments
