No AC yet, but if we’re lucky the guy will come install the window units tomorrow. (The house wiring can only handle the two that were taken out by the landlady last Fall. They’re in a closet and she only wants her guy to install them. It’s a coordination issue, but we may have it licked now. Hope so.)

Had my first morning walk today. Took it slow, but it went well. The problem is that my muscles are still saturated with water. It’s a wierd feeling.

If all goes well, all three of us will fly to SB this Friday and I’ll be in a much better house for relaxing than this one. For a week or so, anyway, then I’ll come back here until August.

I wish I were a better TV watcher. What I found in the hospital was that my interest in music far exceeded my interest in movies or shows. I literally re-discovered a forgotten part of my life.

That said, I really do want to check out The Wire.

And it’d be cool to give you an excuse to come to Boston, or SB. Let’s see what we can do.

How about getting an air conditioner? (I remember you writing how hot the house was a few weeks ago.)

If you’re looking for something to pass the time, TCM is a great cable channel. In my month of convalescence in 2002 they were having Joan Crawford Month, so I watched literally every movie she made. She made some good ones (and some really bad ones, but even they were good).

I’d highly recommend a series like The Wire — if you haven’t seen it. It’s got 5 seasons, and it’s wonderful drama.

If you want some company let me know, always looking for an excuse to come to Boston.

I’ve since been reducing that spare tire by about 6 gallons.
