Today is my son’s birthday. Happy Birthday Jim!

Last night I went to bed at 10:30, fell asleep quickly, got up once at 5:30, finally waking/getting up at 6:30.

The streets are wet so obviously we got a little rain overnight.

I left the apt just before 8am, walked to the mall, recycled a couple Coke bottles, then waited for Jose at Habia Una Vez. He showed up at 8:30 and I had the complete breakfast and he had coffee and a couple pastries. We went upstairs at 9am.

I had White in the first game and he was winning but in the endgame I forked his king and rook and we settled for a draw.

For lunch he had an ice cream cone and I had a bowl of frijoles, a side order of rice and a bottle of water.

I had Black in the second game and I blundered in the middlegame and he forked both my rooks with his knight. I resigned, he left and I went downstairs for coffee at Todo Fresa. When I left I returned to the apt by taxi just before 4pm.

Later, Teresa told me she wants to go to a restaurant in La Buena Mesa for a great sandwich her friend introduced her to. I told her we tried that once before but for some reason we didn’t eat there. She finally remembered the name – Los Porteños. I googled it and they close every night at 7pm and it’s 6:30 now so we’ll try some other day but earlier.

A will is a dead giveaway.
