Nothing day because it was supposed to rain, and did rain, and was dark by the time it stopped raining. I would have ordered in but the website kept playing silly buggers. Skip the Dishes regularly does this, and Uber, aside from everything else hinky about Uber, piles on the surcharges, so can't use them either. Thus I didn't get Indian food or pad thai or a hamburger, but ate veggie pakoras from the freezer and got my calories from nuts and vodka. Finished a rather good Ferrars and shall continue on with Delicious in Dungeon, even if the idea of eating parasitic worms is revolting.

At least yesterday I got out to the library and the Manning Pour House for rice vermicelli and chicken, quite as good as the lamented Ginger's. Have not done any of my deskly to do things, like registering my new Visa card or applying for the government's dental plan or calling the rollator fixit guy or the physio who's registered with the province to approve grants to seniors who need things like upright walkers. I hate making phone calls and am glad to have lived long enough that texting has become a thing, but people still expect you to call them in person and wait for them to call you back. Which means staying in unless you use the cell phone which nobody else ie taxi drivers and the like, knows how to talk into comprehensibly.
