Sister's Wedding

Attended sister's wedding today in Baltimore at the Rusty Scupper. She seems happy. Flowers were beautiful, lovely cake as well. Unlimited coca-cola was a treat, since largely I forgo soda these days. Very glad to to meet up with family, especially so soon after my week in northern Michigan.

National Aquarium Museum

Visited the National Aquarium Museum in Baltimore today. It was tremendous fun and my grandfather even joined in for a bit. Reminded me of visiting the aquarium in Boston.

American Visionary Art Museum

I visited the American Visionary Art Museum today in Baltimore. Some of it didn't seem to me to be art, but much of it did. I especially enjoyed the "Trojan Hippo" piece.

I was supposed to go to Camden Yards to see the Orioles-Red Socks game this evening, but I was exhausted and slept instead while the crowd went to the game.

Michael during layover

My college friend Michael had a longish layover this evening at PHX, so I picked him up at the airport and we went to dinner and hung out on the ASU Tempe Mill Ave scene before I deposited him back just-in-time to the airport. Made me feel old -- I don't quite pass for college age kid anymore, though neglecting to have my ID on me still kept me out of the Big Bang piano bar.

Maybe it's just me, but maybe the signage around getting to the airport could be improved a whole lot.

Insomnia

Somehow, I couldn't sleep a wink last night. Made for a relatively miserable traditional-hours work day. I managed to sleep 6pm to midnight or so, though, which felt great, and after working a couple hours, plan to get another nap in before facing tomorrow, and ideally feeling much more human.

Chompies for brunch

I had the strawberry stuffed French toast today at Chompie's. It was pretty tasty, but I think next time I'll seek to eat something more nutritive. Taking a bag of day-old bagels to work tomorrow.

Went to Costco to buy water and stamps.

This evening I got to visit the St. Bernard and borrow him for a run in the park. We had a blast.

Flash game

A friend sent me a link to this Flash game in which I'm able to get a high score of 6.

Phone with an old friend

Spent quite a while on the phone with an old friend this evening. It was fun to catch up.
