IHB a high school friend of mine made a day trip to Chicago to visit me today,
with his 3 year old daughter. We had a really fun time walking around
downtown just hanging out, and we went to some places I hadn't gone yet. I
found a book in Borders that I'm excited about reading... its called "Four
Colours Suffice", and its about the "proof" of the Four Colour Theorem, which
I've always found interesting.
Other people see a 3 year old girl and say "Oh, how cute!". I sit down at
the table in the restaurant, take several coffee creamers, and ask "How
many?", and after she counts, rearrange them and ask again. In spite of all
the other fun stuff we did, I have to say that this game was the highlight
of my day.
We also took the orange line all the way until it ended and back, and had a
good conversation whilst Lily slept. And we talked about both of our curious
fascinations with the movie "1776", which our history teacher showed us in
class many years ago and we now both own more than one copy of. Its a bad
movie. We still love it. Thanks, Mrs. Dahl. :)

My son and I had a nice time at my maternal-side family reunion today
in Harrison. The weather started out rainy but then turned
beautiful. The worst of the drunks and low-lifes stayed away, and the
rest of us had a wonderful time.

I went swimming in Lake Erie for the first time ever today, at
Sterling State Park. Lake Ontario is now the only Great Lake in which
I have not swam.
Sterling made Lake Erie seem different than the others. For one
thing, the bottom is covered with small shells and with an almost
slimy sand. For another, I could see what I took to be the Fermi II
nuclear power plant to the north, and a Ford factory to the south. I
didn't like it nearly as much as I do the gorgeous sand beach found
almost all the way around Lake Michigan.
I used the opportunity of the two factories to explain to my son why
there are so many factories near lakes and rivers. When I was a kid,
I could watch factory waste being dumped into the Grand River several
times per day, where it was assumed it would disappear without a trace
and without harm. Except by then, anyone who could read was well
aware that the waste was causing *great* damage and didn't disappear
at all. Action to remedy this was a liberal triumph and I presented
it to my son as one.
Anyway, it was nice to have been in my 4th Great Lake.

I washed my hair for the first time in two weeks after washing a week's worth
of dishes to empty the kitchen sink. The bathroom is still around 60 (ground
temperature) and I did not want to heat it because the heat rises into the
apartment which is about 80. It is really nice to have clean hair. Last time
I showered I ran upstairs with teeth chattering to dry off.

IHB my friend Linda had a birthday party yesterday, and we had three little
ones there -- Katie, at three and a half, Griffin at 16 months (this week),
and Miles at nearly five months (next week). It was much fun, even though
it ended up segregating among gender lines after a while -- the men went to
play Munchkin and the women stayed in the living room and watched babies and
The Dark Crystal video.

Finally got the Linux recording app compiled and running - I've got a new toy
to play with now! Plus I documented the whole installation, so next time it
should be fairly straightforward.

Saw Bon Jovi in concert last night. When did Jon get so hot? It brought "Lay
Your Hands On Me" to a whole new level.
