Mon
-- 12:10a  Bed
--   9:18a  Up
--   9:52a  Leaving to bike, then get breakfast: 2 sausage/egg burritos
-- 11:37a  Inside after biking 3+5;  Skim Ch2 news
-- 12:09p  "The View"

--   1:45p - 2:13p  Called EJB.  The TV is now working, it seems that it had been plugged into
a switched outlet.  I have been encouraging him to go outside but he acts like he'll
get into trouble if he does that.

--   2:20p  Leaving to bike, then pickup dinner if it doesn't start raining.
There were some random raindrops, after biking 2 mi, started driving
to pickup tomorrow's dinner @Gharib Nawaz;  Last time, they were out of what I wanted 
but they had it this time.

~~  After, went to Pete's Hot Bar.  When I went to the express checkout, the cashier seemed
to be struggling with loading a new rack of plastic bags.  Since there was a couple of people
ahead of me, I left my one item on the belt and rushed to grab a sale item I saw earlier.
I got back in time, but the cashier was gone.  I asked the woman ahead of me what's going on
and she said the cashier went to get some plastic flatware.  This is the express line --
it seems that they should have other people available to do those sorts of things.
Then, after she rang me up, the receipt printer had run out!

~~  After, I went to the Dollar Tree near Pete's -- not the one I usually go to.
I specifically wanted spice drops because this one usually has them when the other one doesn't.
But they didn't have them.  There were 2 lines open and the cashier was just finishing with
someone in the line I picked.  She calls them back because their card didn't go through.

~~  Meanwhile, I was hoping to get home and bike again before it started raining.
Luckily, it hadn't rained while I was shopping and it wasn't raining when I got home,
but it had gotten a lot cooler.

--   3:57p  Inside after biking 3 mi.  Dinner @home: catfish plus breaded shrimp
--   4:35p  Drizzle has started;  "Inside Edition"
--   5:28p  Heavy rain started (but only lasted 10 mins or so)
--   5:39p  Skim Ch7 news

They are building a Bruster's Ice Cream shop in the outlot of Pete's Fresh Market so
I saw it today.  I'm usually excited when I see new stores getting built but I don't really
need a new ice cream place.  What I didn't know, but just saw on news, is that the first
Chicago-area one opened today in Aurora,  I've seen many of them on my virtual trip in Georgia.
